Jang Ki-yong and Chun Woo-hee created dizzying chemistry.

In the fashion magazine Elle's pictorial released on the 24th, the two main characters of JTBC's new drama 'Although I am not a hero' are shown.

'Although I am not a hero' is a story about a man named Bok Gwi-ju (Jang Ki-yong) who lost his superpower, and a suspicious woman named Do Da-hae (Chun Woo-hee).

The shoot focused on capturing the strange atmosphere between the two. Jang and Chun drew attention by creating a dizzying chemistry as if they were kissing with an apple in between.

Chun Woo-hee praised, "Bok Gwi-ju of 'Although I am not a hero' is really cool, but Ki-yong looks really like a model today," while Jang Ki-yong admired, "Woo-hee said she has a hard time taking photo shoots, but I was surprised that she was so good at it."

After the photo shoot, an interview was held. "I'm full of expectations, worries, and curiosity," said Jang Ki-yong, who is returning to TV screen after being discharged from the army with 'Although I am not a hero', adding, "When I was in the army, I watched the drama I starred in with my colleagues, and it was a very strange feeling, so I wonder if I will feel differently this time.

"In our drama, we thought that psychic powers are not a 'fantasy' but a 'parable,'" said Chun Woo-hee about the difference between the drama and other works with the motif of psychic powers. "We hope that the setting of a family of psychics who have lost their powers can also be a story about the potential that we all have, and that it can provide comfort and healing to those who are not able to fulfill their potential in the modern world."

As their romance is also a focal point of the show, Chun Woo-hee said, "I think romance acting should fulfill fantasy and be realistic at the same time," adding, "I don't usually agree that having a lot of experience is helpful for acting, but I think romance requires experience, and it definitely requires a lot of sensitivity." Jang Ki-yong responded, "I usually express myself through actions rather than words," and said, "I'm shy about expressing affection, so there is definitely a difficult part when acting, and it's my challenge to overcome it." They shared their thoughts on the joys and challenges of romance acting.

Meanwhile, 'Although I am not a hero' premieres on May 4 at 10:30 p.m.
