110803 [Interview #3] Kim Jaejoong Says, “Cold City Guy? I’m As Warm And Inviting As Soybean Paste”

Kim Jaejoong has transformed into the prince of the financial world in SBS’ new Wednesday-Thursday drama ‘Protect the Boss’. He must have quite a burden on his shoulders from the Chaebol craze that began with Hyun Bin in ‘Secret Garden’ as he has to play the role of a perfect man for his drama debut. Added to that pressure is the fact that his fellow team member Park Yoochun played the role of a conglomerate successor in his recent drama ‘Miss Ripley’.

To this, Kim Jaejoong showed his strong determination as he said, “It’s true that I feel pressured about it but I’m working hard to express Cha Mu Won’s special character.”

As Kim Jaejoong plays the role of a conglomerate successor, he wears a fitting suit in the drama. He always wore a suit in his previous Japanese drama ‘Sunao Ni Narenakute’; the only difference was that in the Japanese drama, he wore flapping suits that made him look like a middle-aged man.


“Isn’t it quite odd? I always end up wearing a suit in my dramas. In the Japanese drama, my role was one of an employee who was a bit of a country bumpkin, so I couldn’t wear anything sophisticated. I always had to wear suits that made me look old. But there was actually another reason behind those suits. I was working out so much back then that I didn’t have any suits that fit (laughter).”

If he was born a successor to a conglomerate, what would Kim Jaejoong be doing in 2011? Kim Jaejoong burst out into laughter as he said, “I would have become a yahoo.” But then, he said he would want to buy a helicopter or a plane if he were a successor to a conglomerate. The reason was simple. It’s because he can’t buy a helicopter or a plane right now.

What kind of person does Kim Jaejoong think Kim Jaejoong is? What kind of person does Kim Jaejoong, who shows a different face every moment and always takes on new challenges, want to become?

I’m someone who is like soybean paste. Warm and inviting. Soybean paste is used for medicine and food, and no matter where you put it, it’s great and doesn’t feel burdensome. Like how the smell of soybean paste is foul, I can be foul at times. On the other hand, there are times when I ‘ferment’ myself like soybean paste that’s been in the crock for the a while. At times, I dissolve issues easily like soybean paste dissolves in water and at other times, I’m stiff and quiet like a block of fermented soybeans. I want to be like the soybean paste in a crock, not greedy, not burdensome and able to fit wherever one goes.
