(Central News Agency reporter Hong Sujin, Taipei, 3rd) Actor Ke Shuyuan plays a paper artisan and has a romantic storyline with Han Yu in a new drama. Ke described his character as an "inflexible straight man" and revealed that a scene where Han Yu falls ill was so emotionally intense that he couldn't detach from it afterwards. He also hinted that their relationship is not just romantic, but also a deep master-apprentice bond.
The drama 'A Song and A Nuan' uses traditional paper art culture as a key backdrop. Ke plays a taciturn and inexpressive paper artisan who silently shoulders the love and responsibility for his family. According to a press release, Ke admitted to feeling a strong resonance with the character from the moment he started reading the script, seeing many of his own traits in the character's dedication to work and tendency to hide his emotions. "The character is essentially a stubborn, inflexible, and poor conversationalist straight man," he said.
More than the paper art techniques, Ke found the emotional relationship with Han Yu to be the real challenge. Their bond is not just romantic but also interwoven with a master-apprentice relationship and a twist of fate. Speaking about the most memorable scene with Han Yu, Ke revealed it was one where she falls ill. In the scene, he mistakenly believes his beloved is about to die and, in extreme helplessness and grief, must suppress his emotions to say goodbye. This scene became a crucial turning point in their emotional journey and left him unable to detach from the role.
For Ke, the drama is not just about love, but about everyone's journey in life to learn to understand their family and reconcile with themselves. He hopes the audience can feel the characters' transformations as the story unfolds. (Editor: Zhang Mingkun) 1150603
