Song Joong Ki was stunned to learn that Filipinos are huge fans of “Vincenzo.”
During the press conference ahead of his first fan meet in Manila on Saturday, the Hallyu icon was asked by GMA News Online what role he had in K-Dramas does he think Filipinos love the most, and was shocked to learn that it was Vincenzo.
“’Vincenzo?’ Really? Wow. I think I have to call my writer of ‘Vincenzo’ and director. They should make a season two of ‘Vincenzo,’ I think. Wow, I had no idea about that.”
He added, “So okay, I will call to my writer. He has to write a ‘Vincenzo’ Season 2. And shooting in Philippines, right?”
Song Joong Ki said that he too enjoyed portraying the title character.
“I love my ‘Vincenzo’ character so much, deeply,” he said. “And I don't know why, because just when I shot ‘Vincenzo’ in Korea, I felt something like, [I] feel free. And I really enjoyed that.”
The actor added that the character having to kill others was an exciting trait, and that “the comedy was very funny.”
Song Joong Ki also said that if he could switch lives with any of the characters he portrayed, it would be Vincenzo.
“I think that this would be the refreshing character that I want to try living in, the Vincenzo character,” he said.
Aside from “Vincenzo,” Song Joong Ki is best known for his roles in “Reborn Rich,” “Werewolf Boy,” and “Space Sweepers,” among many others.
Previously, he had a cameo appearance in the hit series "Queen of Tears" as Vincenzo. —JCB, GMA Integrated News
