There is no stone in the actor's path. Some actors make their debuts in the lead role from their first appearances, and some have been in the ranks of the most difficult performers after many years of playing and supporting roles. It's not that he keeps playing the lead role. Actors who cannot stand the weight of their seats may disappear and be forgotten.
The actor's path is not fixed. There are actors who have served as leading actors since their debut works, and actors who have gone through a long supporting career to become leading actors, which does not mean that if you become a leading actor, you will always be able to maintain this status, and actors who cannot bear the weight of this position will be forgotten unconsciously.

Then, in the 2019 KBS drama "Chosun Rocco Mungdujeon," he played a cha-yul-moo character and imprinted his presence on the young city hall as a charming sub-south with affectionateness and charisma.

This was the first time that "Run On" had been held in South Korea, where the heroine and her two-sided romance shared their feelings. It took eight years to get here.

Q. I finished 'Run On' safely, how do you feel when you hit the end?
Q. "Run on" has a good finale, do you have any feelings?
Kang Tae-oh: It's no exaggeration to say that 2020 was the year of "run-on" for me. We started in August last year and finished filming at the end of January, so we've been together for a long time. I was so happy to meet such a warm and good work, and I think I was able to spend the winter warmly. It was a piece that I felt once again, 'I have a coat', because I could work with good actors, good directors, and good actors.
Jiang Taiwu: It is not too much to say that 2020 is my "Run on" year, from the beginning of shooting in August last year to the end of January this year, it has been together for a long time, it is very happy to meet such a warm work, and the blessing of this work can also spend a warm winter, and I can work with good directors and good actors in a good shooting scene, and once again feel that "my popularity is not bad".
Q. Why do you think 'Run On' was so much loved by young viewing people?
Q. "Run on" has won the love of young audiences, what do you think is the reason?
Kang Tae-oh: I think you liked the charm of the lines and the delicious "horse taste". In addition, even if it is not a major spectacle, it was a work that heals those who are hurt and stressed by the calm and warm development. I felt a lot of that way as I worked.
Jiang Taiwu: I feel that because of the charm of the lines, the audience likes the "charm of the lines", and there is no ups and downs of the plot, slowly telling the story, it is also a healing work for sad and stressed people, and I always feel this way during the shooting process.
Q. As mentioned, 'Run On' is a work that has a different taste of the lines. What if you had an ambassador who was personally impressive?
Q. As you mentioned, the lines in Run on are very special, what are the lines that impressed you?
Kang Tae-oh: My favorite line is what the movie says to The Sun-Gyom (temporary wan) after the movie breaks up with Dana (Choi Su-young) in part 16. "This may be a sad ending, but I'm going to learn and grow more about the emotions that's coming up because I met (D)" and watching a movie that said, "But I've grown a lot, I'm going to see you."
Kang Tae-woo: My favorite line is in episode 16, when Yinghe breaks up with Shanqian (Lin Shiwan) after breaking up with Danya (Choi So-young), "Although it may be a bad ending, but because I met (Danya) representative, I can learn better about my future feelings and have better growth, right?" I looked at Yinghe who said this and felt, "That's also a lot of growth, very powerful."
Q. What kind of person was Kang Tae-oh thinking about? I wonder how I analyzed and acted on the character.
Q.What kind of character is Li Yinghe in Jiang Taiwu's impression? How are characters analyzed and interpreted?
Kang Tae-oh: I didn't have confidence in the character even when I was shooting early. It was a different look depending on who the movie was meeting. When you're with a predomption, you're like a brother, you're like a mature masculine when you're with a sweet boy, but when you're with Ye Jun (Kim Dong-young), you're like a friend, and when you're with Yechan (Kim Si-eun), you're like a prankster. I saw that and thought about how to hold the skeleton of the movie. I wanted to be able to see that I couldn't get a beat in character. After a long time of thinking about it, I thought about myself, and so did I. I've seen different things, depending on my family, friends, acquaintances, company people, and who I meet. I realized that I could be a character like this, and that kind of character, and I thought, let's not dwell on it much in the movie. As I thought and acted like that, I think the characters were drawn more three-dimensionally, and the chemie between the characters lived well.
Kang Tae-woo: At the beginning of filming, I was not sure of the role, Yinghe would show a different face when meeting different people, she was like a very big brother when she was with Shanqian, there would be mature male beauty when she was with Danya, she was like a friend when she was with Ruijun (Kim Dong-young), and when she was with Rui can (Kim Shi-eun), she was like a brother and a naughty ghost, seeing these people for a long time worried about how to play the role of Yinghe, if you don't find a good clue, you may become multiple personalities , just think about it for a long time, and then think about my own personality is actually like this, I am also based on the people I meet, family, friends, acquaintances, company employees, will have a different look, in the eyes of others I may also have such and such a personality, so decided to no longer tangle in the face of Yinghe, with such an idea to start acting, the role can be more three-dimensional, and the chemical reaction between other roles is also very good.
Q: What are your preparations for digesting the 'U.S. College' movie settings?
Q.What preparations have been made to digest the setting of "Mei Dasheng" Li Yinghe?
Kang Tae-oh: Basically, I was focused on drawing. I had a real painter who was an acquaintance of the bishop, so I went to him, took a drawing class, and learned how to grab a pencil. He's the painter who painted the picture of the film in the drama. I also thought a lot about how the movie feels like, but when I looked at the words and actions of the film, I thought it would be one of many U.S. college students, not a special one. So I tried to embody the image I usually have about my college student. It's pure, free and vintage, and it feels like that.
Jiang Taiwu: I put the focus on painting, the director has a painter I know, I gave him a sketching class and learned the technique of holding pencils, he is the actual painter of Yinghe's works in the play, on the other hand, I also think about how a lot of Yinghe feels about the beauty of the life, looking at the words and actions of The Reflection, I feel that he is just an ordinary beauty student, so I try to create an image of an ordinary beautiful student, pure, free, with fantasy, such a feeling.
Q. Lee Was a character full of cute "dangmi" (doggy-like charm). Have you had trouble playing a loving role?
Q. Lee Anh Ho is a cute "puppy hook" (puppy-like charm) character, is it difficult to play a role full of pampering?
Kang Tae-oh: It was a lot of pressure at first. In fact, I don't have a lot of love, I don't feel like a puppy. I was worried about how to express something I hadn't tried, or whether it would look awkward or overly overused. I found myself acting in a movie that I didn't know I had, and I was happy that I challenged myself to the part I was afraid of.
Jiang Taiwu: At the beginning, it was very stressful, in fact, even if I was a petite, I would not have the feeling of a puppy, (laughs) how to interpret the acting skills that I had not tried, would it be embarrassing or exaggerated, I was worried for a long time, in the process of playing Yinghe, I also found myself that I did not know before, and I also challenged the part that I was afraid of, and I felt very proud.
Q. The movie has always been imposing for Seodan-ah, a chaebol iii. How much synchro rate do you think is actually Kang Tae-oh and the movie?
Q. Yinghe did not have inferiority when facing the chaebol 3rd generation Xu Danya, and he was upright, in fact, what is the similarity rate between Jiang Taiwu and Yinghe?
Kang Tae-oh: Between 55% and 60%, one 58%? I have a similarity to the tension of the movie. When you get close, you play a lot of pranks. Of course, movies are worse than I do. I'm a long way behind in the same size as the movie.
Jiang Taiwu: Between 55% and 60%, about 58%? (Laughs) I also have similarities in my emotions with Yinghe, if I am familiar, I will often joke, of course, Yinghe is more exaggerated than me, and Yinghe is basically the same, but I am still a little far away from him.
Q. I only had an unrequited love for the heroine in my previous work, and this time I had a two-way romance. What was it like acting in your first two-way romance?
Q. In the previous works, they are all unrequited female protagonists, this time there is a two-way love, how does it feel to play two-way love for the first time?
Tae Oh Kang: It was so good. In fact, it was hard to act unrequited love. I was so sad and sad to give my loved ones feelings, but they had to turn their backs and look at their backs, and to postpone feelings that didn't come back. It was so nice to have the feelings of love come back with feedback while playing the "Shoes Couple" (Dan'a X movie). I received that emotion and sent it out again with a new emotion, and that kind of ping-pong came with a thrilling emotion. I played it thinking about how to make danla more excited, and I think my swimming sister helped me out.
Jiang Taiwu: It's amazing. In fact, it is very difficult for a unrequited man to act well, give his feelings to the person he likes, but can only look at the back of the person who turned around, it is difficult to perform this feeling, this time playing "Danying CP (Danya X Yinghe)" felt the feedback of emotion, it is really too good, after feeling her feelings, and then give different emotions, such interaction brings heartbeat, deduces how to make Danya more moved in distress, and in this part, Xiuying sister also gave me a lot of help.
Q. In what specific ways did Choi Su-young, who was a romance partner, specifically help?
Q.What kind of help did the romantic actor Cui Xiuying give you?
Tae-Oh Kang: I've learned so much from my swimming sister. As much as my swimming sister loved the character Dan'aran so much, I loved my character as an opposing actor. My sister advised me a lot about what I didn't know, and I think it's all right. I think she lived well with the movie characters and the sweet characters because of her sister.
Jiang Taiwu: I learned a lot from Sister Xiuying, Sister Xiuying likes the role of Danya, and also likes my role in the hand play, "If Yinghe does this here, the girls seem to be more moved", "If you act like this, it seems that there will be a new charm of Yinghe", my sister has given a lot of suggestions in the parts I don't know, these suggestions seem to be correct, the roles of Sister Fu, Yinghe and Danya are very vivid.
Q. I really liked breathing with my opponent. So how was it with Kisun-gyom Station Temporary Wan and Omiju Station Shin Se-kyung?
Q. The tacit understanding with the actors is really good, so what about Lin Shiquan, who plays Qi Shanqian, and Shin Shijing, the actor who plays Wu Meizhu?
Kang Tae-oh: I think Shiwan is a complete actor. I pursue completion by myself and make constant efforts every time I prepare a god. At the end of one take, you'll be asked, 'Wouldn't this be better?' or 'How would it be more natural here?' 'How's this? How's that?' and continues to work on completing the gods. The scene where The Sun and the movie follow E.T with their fingers is also improvised by talking to their brother. He's professional, and he has a lot to learn.
Jiang Taiwu: Shi Quange is a complete actor, he also pursues completion, and he has made a lot of efforts in preparing for each scene, and after a shooting, he will ask "Wouldn't this be better?" "How can it be more natural here?" "How about this? How about that? In order to complete the shooting, I have been doing research, and the scenes of Shanqian and Yinghe imitating E.T are also improvised when chatting with brother, who is very professional and has many places to learn from him.
She's a caring and warm person. When I came to the shoot, I always asked him warmly, 'I ate rice, what did you eat?' I appreciated that, I had a lot of tension on the field early on, but my sister spoke warmly so I could relax. I was so sorry to check and consider the condition of the other actors.
Sekyo's sister is a warm person who cares about others, and when she comes to the photography field, she will always ask "Have you eaten?" What did you eat? "I am very grateful for this greeting because I was very nervous when I first came to the shooting site, my sister talked to me intimately first, my tension eased, and I really appreciated the state of caring about other actors."
Q. The youth in 'Run On' have grown up with little cuts. What if Kang Tae-oh grew up as an actor?
Q. The youths who appeared in "Run on" have all experienced painful growth, as an actor, does Jiang Taiwu have any growth parts?
Kang Tae-oh: I've learned a lot from this work, looking back at how I was. In particular, I learned about "naturalness" by acting in a good and comfortable atmosphere created by the bishop. I remember the good things about this scene in the next piece, and I want to keep carrying that pleasant tension with me.
Jiang Taiwu: Through this work, I also looked back on the past and learned a lot, especially in acting in a very good and comfortable atmosphere created by the director, learning what is "natural", and in the next work, I will also remember the advantages of this scene, and I want to always have this good sense of tension.
Q. I made my debut in 2013 and am now in year 8. I wonder if I've ever regretted being an actor, or if I think I'm walking the actor's path well on my own.
Q.Debuted in 2013 and is now an actor for 8 years, have you ever regretted becoming an actor? Feel like you're on the path of being an actor?
Tae Oh Kang: I've never regretted it. Since I was a young age, I've been preparing a little bit since I was a dream, and it's been eight years since I made my debut. Of course, there have been many difficulties in my work. I've been in the field for not memorizing all the scripts. I've been hurt and troubled by the self-blame of "I can't do this." But I never regretted being an actor. It's not fun to work in any job, right? Of course, there's something hard, and it's homework to get through it. As an actor, looking back the way I've been, I think I'm still slowly getting ahead. I want to see a graph that continues to grow without climbing or falling too much in the future.
Jiang Taiwu: I have never regretted it. I have dreamed of becoming an actor since I was a child, I have been preparing, unconsciously 8 years, of course, in the process of acting, I often feel tired, the lines can not be memorized, I have been scolded on the scene, I will also blame myself for "even this is not good", I feel very sad, but I have not regretted becoming an actor, no matter what profession can not only be happy, there must be tired places, to overcome these is my subject, looking back at the road I have traveled as an actor, I feel that I am slowly moving forward well, Don't go up and down after that, and want to paint a chart that is gradually rising.
Q. So when you look at actor Kang Tae-oh's life as a 100m run, how many meters do you think he's located now?
Q. If you think of the life of actor Jiang Taiwu as a 100m run, how many meters is it now?
Kang Tae-oh: Actually, I didn't think about it eight years after my debut. I don't think about how long it's been since I made my debut, but I think I'm just looking at the finish line. Looking back now, I don't think this I'm running is a 100m run, a 50m run, a marathon or not. If you think that's a 100m run, one 20m? I don't think I've come. I think that's the difference between how satisfied you are with this job, how greedy you are. I've done a lot of things I haven't done yet and I want to play a lot of roles, and I think I'm going to be comfortable with myself when I think I'm done at the finish line, so I don't think I'm halfway through the 100m.
Jiang Taiwu: In fact, I don't think much about the debut for 8 years, I didn't think about how long I debuted, I just blindly looked at the finish line running, and now looking back, Whether I am running 100m, or 50m, or marathon, it is also unknown, if you think of it as a 100m race, now it is about 20m? The feeling is the difference between how satisfied this job is, how much ambition there is, and there are a lot of characters that have not been tried so far, that I want to try, and if I think I get to the finish line I may not work again, so I think in 100m I ran less than half of it.
Q. The next installment was decided by Lee Hyun-kyu in the tvN drama "One Day I Came into the Front Door of My House." What can we expect this time?
Q. Your next work is determined to be Lee Hyun-gyu of the tvN TV series "Destruction Suddenly Comes to our House", what kind of face can we expect you to look like?
Kang Tae-oh: Hyun-kyu is a different person wyring the atmosphere looks like a movie. If the film is a person who chooses love in his career and love, and grows up hurting and growing up in love, Hyun-kyu is a person who gives up love because he values his vision and future more than love. Then I regret it and suffer from growing pains. Please enjoy such an attractive figure.
Jiang Tae-woo: Hyun-gyu and Yinghe seem to have similarities, but in fact, the feeling is different, if Yinghe is a character who chooses love between his career and love, and grows up in the pain of love, Hyun-gyu is more attached to his future, gives up the role of love, and then regrets and experiences the pain of growth, please also look forward to having such a charm of Hyungyu.
Q. Actor Kang Tae-oh, I wonder what each goal is as a human gangtae.
Q. What kind of goals do actors Jiang Taiwu and ordinary people Jiang Taiwu each have?
Kang Tae-oh: As an actor, I think I have the same goals as a human. Nothing big. Every time I go into a piece, I have a short goal of "let's finish this work nicely," and in the long run, I think that's what I'm aiming for as an actor as a human being. At some point, when you look at it, isn't it a tree full of blue, even if it's not gorgeous?
Jiang Taiwu: Whether as an actor or an ordinary person, my goal seems to be the same, not a big goal, every time I shoot a work, there will be a small goal like "shoot this work well", I want to do this all the time, this seems to be my goal, so that after looking back at it in a moment, even if it is not gorgeous, it will become a lush tree, right?
