After the show\u2019s release, the actors sat down for an interview with <em data-start=\"429\" data-end=\"438\">InStyle<\/em> magazine. During this, actor Park Sung Hoon opened up about how he played his character Hyun Ju in Squid Game Season 3, and why this role was so special to him.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"613\" data-end=\"942\">In the series, Hyun Ju is a transgender woman who has not yet finished her transition. She wants to win the deadly games to earn money for her remaining medical procedures and then move to Thailand to live a happy life. However, in her home country, she has faced a lot of judgment and unkind behaviour from people around her.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"944\" data-end=\"1365\">Park Sung Hoon shared that he felt a deep sense of responsibility to portray Hyun Ju truthfully and respectfully. In many Korean dramas and movies, transgender characters in the past have often been shown flatly or exaggeratedly, almost like a joke. Park said clearly, \u201cTransgender characters we\u2019ve had in Korea before were written like a caricature, and I thought Hyun Ju shouldn\u2019t be like that at all.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"944\" data-end=\"1365\">\n<h2 data-start=\"944\" data-end=\"1365\"><strong>Park Sung Hoon avoided stereotypes while filming Squid Game 3<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"1367\" data-end=\"1714\">He made a strong effort to stay away from stereotypes. That means he didn\u2019t want to act in a way that made fun of or overdramatised Hyun Ju\u2019s identity. Instead of using loud gestures or a changed voice, he focused on Hyun Ju\u2019s feelings, dreams, and kindness. He wanted to show her as a real, full person, not just as someone playing a role.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1716\" data-end=\"1974\">Park Sung Hoon also shared something very touching. He said he didn\u2019t want people to just say, \u201cHe acted well as a transgender woman.\u201d Instead, he hoped viewers would say, \u201cShe was a hero.\u201d That\u2019s how much love and respect he had for Hyun Ju\u2019s character.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1976\" data-end=\"2267\">Fans were moved by his careful and thoughtful performance. Many praised him online, calling Hyun Ju \u201cour eternal queen\u201d and \u201cforever a hero.\u201d Because of this, people say this role might be one of the most important in Park Sung Hoon\u2019s career, just like his role in Queen of Tears.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2269\" data-end=\"2450\">By playing Hyun Ju with heart, care, and honesty, Park Sung Hoon helped bring more awareness to transgender stories in Korean drama, and gave fans a character they will never forget.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Squid Game series became a huge hit around the world because of its powerful story and amazing acting.
