Song Seung Heon - Lost 5kg for He Was Cool


Read an old chitchat of fans here and there, a story about Song Seung Heon during the HeWas Cool filming touching me. I think not many fans know the story...

The story was nice and told me more about my idol. The one I admire and love. I wish to share to Fans, who do love him, let they have chance to know more about him.

He lost more than 5Kg during He Was Cool. It's partly on purpose and partly due to harsh filming condition. First the director wanted him to shed some weight to suit better for a teenager role, so he went on a diet. The weather was also cruel. They filmed He Was Cool during fierce winter but the story supposed to be during fall. So the casts had to wear fall clothes during winter weather. 
At every break times, the casts rushed for blankets and hot water pillows. But Seung Heon did not want to use these warmers. He said the filming condition for Ice Rain was even worse and he wanted to train his body more. There was also a scene where he had to jump into the winter sea, and that day, there was weather report of unusual cold water current. 
Unfortunately, the shooting at the beach took a long time as there were many NGs. The result was Seung Heon had to jump repeatedly into the winter sea for the shooting of that scene. He also had to practice really hard for the fighting scenes, because Song Heon wanted to carry out those fighting scenes by himself instead of using a substitute. He did a great job at it. 
After He Was Cool, many viewed Seong Heon with a different eye. He is no longer just a perfect gentle lover, he is also a great fighter and a very COOL guy.  


I like He Was Cool, lovely story and Song Seung Heon's act well in the movie. But I did never know the story behind, how did they make the movie in fierce winter. I did not imagine how hard actors and actresses have to work.
How do you feel now, he was so cool, wasn't he? Yes, he always is great!
HE IS always COOL!
