[Seoul=RNX News] Reporter Seo-yeon Jeong = Actor Kim Beom-rae left a strong impression with his character that is hard to hate in ‘Love to Hate’.
In the tvN Mon-Tue drama ‘Love to Hate’ (directed by Kim Ga-ram, written by Jeong Yeo-rang, planned and produced by Studio Dragon, Studio&New, Artist Company) which first aired on the 3rd (Mon), Kim Beom-rae plays Hong, the chief editor of the media company ‘Sports Eunseong’, showing outstanding performance.
‘Love to Hate’ is a drama about a national actor who lost his initial intentions and a entertainment journalist obsessed with justice, battling it out in a war of words, fact bombarding, and breaking stereotypes.
In the first episode, it was revealed that Chief Hong was the culprit who took paparazzi photos of Im Hyun-jun (played by Lee Jung-jae) and Kwon Se-na (played by Oh Yeon-seo) in the past, piquing interest.
Chief Hong showed a cynical reaction to Hyun-jun and Se-na, saying, “Why should we consider your circumstances? There’s so much clear evidence, such nonsense.”
In that scene, Kim Beom-rae left a strong impact by combining his characteristic skillful acting and delicate emotional lines, revealing a realistic human aspect.
Meanwhile, Chief Hong is a cheerful and sociable figure on the outside but is not easy to read on the inside.
He drew attention by warmly introducing the new president, Lee Jae-hyung (played by Kim Ji-hoon), to Director Yoon Hwa-young (played by Seo Ji-hye) saying, “Meet the new president of Sports Eunseong.”
Viewers are focused on what influence Chief Hong, who played a decisive role in the reunion of Jae-hyung and Hwa-young, will have on the story ahead.
Kim Beom-rae vividly portrayed the character Hong with his uniquely heavy presence and realistic tone.
Particularly, through his multifaceted appearance as a realistic middle manager at work and his human side, he added depth to the narrative of ‘Love to Hate’.
The alluring and compelling acting of Kim Beom-rae can be seen every Monday and Tuesday at 8:50 PM on tvN Mon-Tue drama ‘Love to Hate’.
