TOP 034;Accepting harsh criticism for acting… Deliberately acting to make you cringe034;

After ‘Squid Game 2’ was released on December 26 last year, Choi Seung-hyun, who played Thanos, was evaluated as showing substandard acting skills. In addition to the character tone that seemed to be somewhat at odds with the overall atmosphere of the play, as well as T.O.P’s unique vocalization and pronunciation, some people said that his acting skills were disappointing.

Choi Seung-hyun said he would accept any evaluation, but said, “From the beginning, I set it up to make it look ridiculous and less distant.”

“It was a character that was carefully designed after many discussions with the director. It was a character that evoked the dark and heavy atmosphere of the play in the scenario. It was depicted in a cartoonish way. Thanos is by no means a flashy or cool rapper. He is a hip-hop loser with a failed life. “It’s a character, and it’s a character who is dependent on drugs.”

Thanos raps in the movie, and he usually speaks like he’s rapping. Some viewers pointed out that Choi Seung-hyun’s acting was awkward. Seunghyun Choi said, “I also wanted to express my rap like a hip-hop loser.”

“Thanos’s rapping actually comes out at the wrong time and is comical and bizarre. In a way, Thanos’ character can be seen as having a mental age similar to that of Jjangchan. I wanted to make people cringe when he rapped. Even I cringed. “But I did my best because it was my role.”
