 MBN ‘Kim Juha’s Day and Night’ capture<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Son Chang-min said he once traded roles in a production to help junior actor Shin Hyun-joon.<\/p>\n

Son appeared as a guest on MBN\u2019s variety show Kim Ju-ha’s Day and Night, which aired on the afternoon of the 4th. He debuted at age seven and is now in his 55th year as an actor. It marked his first variety-show appearance in two decades.<\/p>\n

On the episode, Son said he had been concerned that Shin\u2019s image had become fixed after his intense Japanese character in the film The General\u2019s Son. When they worked together on the 1995 KBS2 drama Baramui Adeul \u2014 which also starred Lee Byung-hun \u2014 Son made a bold pitch to the director: \u201cLet\u2019s swap roles.\u201d<\/p>\n

The director was taken aback, asking, \u201cWhat are you talking about?\u201d Son persuaded him, saying, \u201cI want to give my role to (Shin) Hyun-joon as a gift.\u201d In the end, Son took the villain while Shin played the hero.<\/p>\n

When the panelists applauded the move, Son quipped, \u201cI\u2019m that cool,\u201d then laughed and added, \u201cThat guy (Shin Hyun-joon) might not even remember.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
