Transcript
00:00Okay, George, from all the vlogs I've seen, he's kind, am I right?
00:11He's kind.
00:12But he's a fighter.
00:13He's a fighter, definitely.
00:14But he's like a fighter.
00:18He's brave. He's really brave.
00:20I would say, yes, he's kind.
00:23She's family-oriented.
00:24She loves her family and she's a devoted wife.
00:27But he's brave.
00:29If he likes you, he likes you.
00:32If he doesn't like you, you'll feel it.
00:35This Widow's War is from the same creator of Widow's Web and Royal Blood.
00:43Is there a pressure to make this Widow's War better?
00:47There's a lot of pressure because this is the third one.
00:52It follows Widow's Web and Royal Blood,
00:56which had their own following, of course.
00:59They talked about it.
01:01They rated it.
01:04So there are expectations.
01:09Not just for the show, Widow's War, to rate,
01:13but to be as consistent and as intriguing as the first two.
01:20But thankfully, at least, Widow's War won't be complete
01:24if the viewers don't like the first two.
01:29We can feel the pressure.
01:31We can really feel the anxiety and the expectations.
01:35But it's different.
01:38And I guess, I would say, it's more leveled up than the first two.
01:42Let's talk about Direct-Zig.
01:45How does he prepare you for a scene?
01:48Direct-Zig is collaborative.
01:50He asks questions.
01:52He's not the usual director or the type of director
01:56who will show you or give you the blocking,
02:00his instructions,
02:03whether it's in terms of the delivery of lines,
02:07or even the emotions that your character needs for the scene.
02:11More on, he asks questions.
02:14How do we go through this scene?
02:18What is the motivation of your character in this scene?
02:25He wants to know your thoughts.
02:28He wants to contribute input.
02:32So, you become thinking actors.
02:34Yes, we become thinking actors.
02:36So, it's more collaborative.
02:38He wants to hear our thoughts about our lines
02:43or about the particular scene.
02:46He's easy to get along with.
02:48He's easy to talk to.
02:51And he's open to the ideas of the artist.
02:54Maybe, Royal Blood is a bit high-blooded.
02:57It's a bit...
02:59Hmm...
03:00It's a bit of a mystery with those who are.
03:04Because he's...
03:06Aside from being very mysterious, intriguing,
03:11there are twists.
03:13In one of the interviews,
03:15you get caught in the edge of your seat.
03:18Because this is borderline horror.
03:22So, we're taking mystery to a whole new level.
03:26I admit, even during our first or the initial taping days,
03:30I was really nervous.
03:32She's a strong character.
03:34She's a fighter.
03:35She doesn't give up.
03:37She doesn't feel sorry for herself.
03:39She doesn't want to be defeated.
03:41George's courage is different.
03:43He's strong-willed.
03:45And his anger comes from deep within.
03:48When you anger him.
03:49What's George's similarity?
03:52Maybe, it's very little.
03:54I'd say, of course, being family-oriented.
03:57George loves his family.
03:59That's a given.
04:01What about the fight?
04:02The fight?
04:03I don't think so.
04:04Because George's confidence is different.
04:07I'm just quiet.
04:09I'm not outspoken.
04:11I'm not an extrovert.
04:13I'm not someone you can read right away.
04:16How do you recover from the beatings and the stabbing?
04:20I don't know what to do.
04:22Of course, I don't know what to do.
04:23Oh my gosh.
04:25I'm sure he's done a lot of scenes like this.
04:29You know, the high-heels conflict.
04:31You know, tap fight and stuff like that.
04:34But I...
04:35What do you see him doing?
04:37There are things he does.
04:39Honestly, I'm used to it.
04:41But this degree is different.
04:42Plus, your scene.
04:44Oh my gosh.
04:45I'm always careful.
04:47Of course, I try my best to be careful.
04:50I really don't want to hurt anybody.
04:52Of course, no one wants to hurt their scene.
04:56We have stunt doubles or stunt directors who teach us.
05:04And as long as there's a briefing.
05:07I will end this with a joke I saw on the internet.
05:11I'll react to it.
05:13Because the title is Widow's War.
05:16But the leads are separated.
05:19Will you be shocked if you read that?
05:21Not really.
05:22Actually, I still laugh about it.
05:24Because what are the odds?
05:25My gosh.
05:26You see, right?
05:28It wasn't planned.
05:30I didn't want that.
05:32It was just planned.
05:33Bea and I went through it individually.
05:35What we went through in our personal lives.
05:38And the timing was just right.
05:40You know, with Widow's War.
05:42And our corresponding roles.
05:44And this.
05:45So, I feel like God is the only one who can make a plot twist like that.
05:49What are the odds?
05:51Yes, we have a lot in common.
