Swings Blue Dragon Best New Actor nomination: The rapper-turned-actor, real name Moon Ji-hoon, says he has no expectations as he competes for the award at the 47th Blue Dragon Film Awards alongside four other nominees, and says he knows his place as a rookie actor.
Swings Blue Dragon Best New Actor nomination, Digi Mart USA News: Rapper and actor Swings, whose real name is Moon Ji-hoon, shared his thoughts on being nominated for Best New Actor at the 47th Blue Dragon Film Awards.
On the 9th, a video titled “Overseas-educated Swings runs out of patience while teaching people who have given up on English” was posted on the YouTube channel Egenam Swings. That day, the production staff congratulated Swings on his nomination.
Swings made his acting debut in the film Tazza: The Song of Beelzebub and will compete for the Best New Actor trophy at the 47th Blue Dragon Film Awards, to be held on the 25th. His fellow nominees include Park Ji-hoon of The King’s Warden, Moon Sang-min of Pavane, Lee Jong-won of Salmokji: Whispering Water, and Joo Min-hyung of Chung Chung Chung, among others.
Asked about his chances of winning, Swings joked, “The other four nominees are so formidable that I have absolutely no expectations.” He continued, “Even so, I think I was nominated simply because I may have generated a bit of buzz. I know my place, too.
I still have a long way to go, and I’m just getting started.”
He also looked back on the early days of his YouTube career. “Do you remember how much I was made fun of when I said I was going to start YouTube?
People said, ‘Would that make money?’ and ‘Would that even work?’ But I kept at it, and then DinDin came on and helped it take off,” he said.
Swings also expressed gratitude for having his name on the awards lineup as an actor rather than a rapper. “In any case, as rookie actor Moon Ji-hoon, I feel truly humbled,” he said.
Swings debuted in the Korean music industry with his 2008 EP Upgrade. He took on acting for the first time in Tazza: The Song of Beelzebub, released last September, where he made a strong impression in the role of Abraham, a contract killer.
