Park Shin Hye Sisyphus

Adept at martial arts and practiced in marksmanship, Seo-hae knows she’s there to save the world and there’s no time to waste.

While the present-day world seems like paradise compared to the harsh future, she can’t afford to relax. Seo-hae must protect engineer Han Tae-sul, played by Cho Seung-woo. Changing his fate may be the key to preventing a nuclear disaster.

, the people from the future are those who have returned to the present with a purpose, no matter what the risks, ” said Park. “This is true for Gang Seo-hae. She’s a cool character who struggles to change the future. And she has many likable traits. She’s honest and bold. She faces her situation head-on. Others might view her as someone naive and clueless about worldly matters, but in truth her innocence comes from the fact that she has lived in a bunker for a long time since childhood. And, in contrast to that innocent side of her, she’s a person who can adapt to changing situations and put up a fight when necessary.”

Park tackles the drama’s action scenes with enthusiasm and agility. The confidence with which she defies gravity, leaping gracefully into the air and decimating villains, makes it obvious she relishes the physicality.

“I enrolled in an action school a month and a half before filming began, ” said Park. “I enjoyed my time there because I usually have no qualms about getting physical and roughing it. From holding a gun, to every other element in the staging of an action scene. I practiced until it became a natural part of my body movement. The filming of the scene at Sun’s house, for example, took place much after I had practiced it at the school. But because I had practiced the whole sequence, I was able to apply it quickly on set. Sometimes I was required to perform impromptu action on set during filming. That was possible because the action team and I had put in the time piecing together and practicing sequences. I was able to learn new moves quickly and perform them on the spot.”

“I had so much fun, ” said Park. “But it’s not like I was 100 percent happy with my action performance, so I’d love to take on other films or drama series involving action. Performing an action scene is never easy, because you can’t let yourself go, even for a moment. If you do, someone could get hurt. But I had so much fun learning and performing these scenes.”

Park admits that as a child, she briefly considered becoming a police officer. Or maybe even a kindergarten teacher, she adds with a laugh. But early and consistent success confirmed that acting was a good career choice. Since her debut, she’s played multiple professions in films and on the small screen—a singer, a doctor, a lawyer, a judo coach and even a lonely queen.

Since her debut Park has worked consistently, whether she was acting, hosting, modeling, or serving as an ambassador for various causes. It’s an intense schedule, but she derives motivation from what she does and those around her.

“The driving forces are my fans, family, friends and my colleagues, ” said Park. “Acting provides such fun and rare opportunities to express things and to encounter interesting characters. It is such a blessing to share the emotional experiences with people who have seen my performances. I can’t think of anything more fun and meaningful than that. It’s those moments accrued over time that sustains me and my work.”

, Seo-hae does not rush to see the family she lost. If time travel really existed and Park could travel back, family would be a priority.

“I haven’t really thought about turning back time to return to any one period, but if I could, I’d like to visit the time when my maternal grandmother was healthy, ” said Park. “She passed away when I was very little.”

When it comes to destinations she can actually travel to, Park has preferences that will hopefully translate into plans once pandemic restrictions phase out. There are some places she would return to and some she would like to visit for the first time.

“It’s hard to narrow it down to one place, ” she said. “I have so many wonderful memories of every destination, with cities and vacation places each having their own charm. So it’s hard to choose. For my next trip, I’d love to go somewhere like Hawaii.”

“Some of my recent works had distinct genre characteristics, ” she said. “These days I’m thinking I’d like to be involved in a pleasant and laid back human drama type of a show that deals with the subtleties of day-to-day life.”The fantasy-mystery drama stars Cho Seung Woo as Han Tae Sool, a genius engineer who embarks on a perilous journey to bring to light hidden beings that are secretly residing in our world, and Park Shin Hye as his savior, the heroic soldier Kang Seo Hae, who has walked a long and dangerous path for him.

Park Shin Hye shared about the show, “You should look forward to it.” Talking about why she chose the project, Park Shin Hye said, “I’m taking on a new genre as an actress through ‘Sisyphus’ so I think I’ll be able to show many different sides of myself.”

In order to survive in the barren future that’s fallen into ruin, Kang Seo Hae grew up undergoing intense training from her father, who had been in the special forces. The actress said her character is able to perceive and solve situations with her instinctive senses and she’s quick on her feet and incredibly skilled when it comes to fighting.

To bring Kang Seo Hae to life, Park Shin Hye practiced hard while attending action school. “In order to get used to using my body, I went to action school and familiarized myself with basic action moves, ” shared Park Shin Hye, saying that she worked hard and did her best during the action scene filming.

In addition, the actress paid attention to small details while preparing separate kinds of clothing for the different time periods and situations, in order to differentiate between the future and present Kang Seo Hae. She said, “To create a difference, Seo Hae living in the future wears clothes that are comfortable while she’s being active in order to survive, as well as accessories like knee pads, gloves, bandanas, and bags. Seo Hae living in the present wears clothes that look like something that Tae Sool procured for her.”

Park Shin Hye said she thought that there wouldn’t be beauty salons in the future, saying, “I styled my hair with a lot of layers to look like she’d cut it herself.” As the show took a long time to film, she used hair extensions to maintain continuity and keep her hair the same length.

On working with Cho Seung Woo, Park Shin Hye said, “It was great to get to work with one of my favorite senior actors. As we filmed together, it was fun to perform together, and I enjoyed both the energy we exchanged and the feeling that we were creating something together while talking about the project and our characters.”

“It was so amazing to see how he was always managing to perfectly pull off the character Tae Sool, and I was always grateful for how considerate he was as he made the set comfortable, ” she said.
