[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kim Sung-yeol] Singer and actor Ok Taec-yeon expressed gratitude to actress Lee Yeon-hee, whom he reunited with after 6 years.


On the morning of the 17th, Ok Taec-yeon appeared on MBC Radio FM4U's 'Good Morning FM with Jang Sung-kyu.'


Currently filming MBC's Wednesday-Thursday drama 'The Game: Towards 0 o'clock,' Ok Taec-yeon greeted listeners, saying, "I can handle morning schedules without any difficulty."


DJ Jang Sung-kyu asked, "Has the '52-hour workweek system' been introduced on drama sets as well?" Ok Taec-yeon replied, "Yes. The drama set is very different before and after military service."


He continued, "I was used to focusing and filming for three months straight, but now I have to plan for six months, and I haven't adapted to that yet."


He described the drama he is filming, 'The Game,' as "a fantasy-mixed melodrama and thriller genre."


Ok Taec-yeon, who reunited with Lee Yeon-hee, with whom he worked in the movie 'Marriage Blue' six years ago, said, "We weren't in contact separately, but this time we are filming for much longer, and maybe because we have experience working together once, I feel comfortable and rely on her."


He added, "Lee Yeon-hee and I are the same age friends, and there is a five-year age difference with senior actor Lim Ju-hwan. Everyone has become close, so the atmosphere on set is very good, and the '52-hour workweek system' is being well observed, which is heartwarming."



When asked by Jang Sung-kyu which was harder between being an actor and an idol, Ok Taec-yeon said, "Both are hard in their own ways. There is no such thing as one being harder than the other. Once you reach a certain level, expressing beyond that becomes more difficult. Crossing that line is the hard part."
