Jang Ki Yong Ensures Plenty of Kiss Scenes in "Dynamite Kiss"

Jang Ki Yong is not just confident that his new drama is compelling, he’s practically guaranteeing it. The actor revealed that a significant amount of preparation and collaboration went into bringing his character to life, which involved deep discussions with the director to fully grasp the essence of the story. 

“When I first encounter a new project or character, I’m the type who usually worries a lot,” he shared. 

“So I read the script many times and also read it together with the director, and if there’s anything I’m confused about, I try to ask a lot of questions. While filming ‘Dynamite Kiss,’ there was a lot of communication and discussion on set," Jang Ki Yong continued.

This meticulous approach helped him capture the vibrant spirit of the script, which he describes as "very bubbly."

But let's get to the point everyone is curious about: the kissing. Jang Ki Yong didn't shy away from confirming that intimate moments are a central highlight of the show. He even issued a special invitation to couples watching at home. 

“Because there’s a lot of kissing in the drama, I hope that many lovers and couples will watch it,” he added with purpose. 

He went on to explain the narrative reason behind this focus, emphasizing that the chemistry between the leads is the engine of the story. 

“Because Gong Ji Hyuk and Go Da Rim’s first meeting and first kiss are so dynamic, I think viewers will be able to enjoy the drama more if they follow along with the two characters’ emotions," Jang Ki Yong revealed.

So, it's clear these scenes aren't just for show, they are fundamental to the plot's progression and the characters' emotional journeys.

The Character of Gong Ji Hyuk: A Cool Exterior with a Pure Heart

At first glance, Jang Ki Yong’s character, Gong Ji Hyuk, seems to have it all. Looks, talent, and the charisma of a successful team leader. He appears aloof, cool-headed, and completely in control, that is, until one kiss shatters his composed world. 

The actor was particularly drawn to the multi-faceted nature of his role, describing Gong Ji Hyuk as a "chameleon-like" character who is far more colorful than he initially expected. But beneath the chic and capable exterior lies a man who is surprisingly pure and innocent when it comes to matters of the heart. Jang Ki Yong expertly broke down his character's charming duality. 

“Gong Ji Hyuk is cool and chic on the outside, but when he’s with the woman he loves, he becomes pure and innocent, almost childlike. He’s also very honest when it comes to love,” the actor revealed. 

This transformation from a seemingly unapproachable consultant to a completely smitten and honest romantic is the core of his appeal. 

“He’s someone who throws himself completely into both work and love. I think that passionate side of him is really charming," Jang Ki Yong further elaborated. 

This passionate, all-or-nothing approach is sure to make Gong Ji Hyuk an unforgettable male lead.

"Dynamite Kiss" is a romantic comedy that follows the chaotic story of Go Da Rim (played by Ahn Eun Jin), a single woman who makes the desperate decision to disguise herself as a married mother in order to land a job. Her life becomes infinitely more complicated when she catches the eye of her team leader, Gong Ji Hyuk (played by Jang Ki Yong), a high-flying management consultant who has never believed in love. His entire world, however, is turned upside down after one fateful, earth-shattering kiss with Da Rim, setting off a chain of colorful and unpredictable events.

"Dynamite Kiss" premieres on November 12 at 9 p.m. KST on SBS. The series promises a delightful mix of office romance tension, comedic moments, and the thrilling, dopamine-filled rush of a relationship that starts with a lie and blossoms through a series of dynamic and colorful encounters. As the production team teased, Jang Ki Yong's unexpected comedic timing will add a fresh layer of energy to the show, making it a must-watch for anyone looking for a heart-fluttering, modern love story.
