‘1947 Boston’ Im Si-wan “I try not to be like a real person”

‘1947 Boston’ Im Si-wan expressed his feelings about playing a real person.

On the 11th, a preview and meeting for the movie ‘1947 Boston’ was held at the Lotte Cinema Konkuk University entrance in Seoul. Director Kang Je-gyu and actors Ha Jung-woo, Im Si-wan, and Kim Sang-ho attended.

Im Si-wan, who played marathoner Seo Yun-bok, said, “I thought I shouldn’t become someone to them. He thought he had to act with a sense of responsibility. Seo Yun-bok went to an international competition wearing the Taegeuk emblem for the first time, and at least while I was working on this project, I went into filming with the mindset that I would also have to wear the Taegeuk emblem and represent the country,” he began.

He added, “Because it was a running role, the running had to look professional. I received professional training 2-3 months before starting the project. “And I trained and filmed in my spare time until filming ended,” he explained.

‘1947 Boston’ is a story depicting the challenges and thrilling journey of marathon runners to participate in international competitions wearing the Taegeuk symbol for the first time after liberation in 1947, and will be released on the 27th.
