“DIRECTOR’S PERSPECTIVE ON JUDD.”

The character we want to shape for Judd in this series shares many similarities with Evan Buckley from 9-1-1. He is spirited, loyal, and carries a big heart, always diving headfirst into situations with courage and passion. Judd is someone who values connection and thrives in being a source of strength for those around him, even when he’s navigating his own challenges. His personality is a blend of unshakable determination and a playful, lighthearted charm that draws others to him. Judd’s favorite place is the beach, where he finds solace in the rhythm of the waves and the endless horizon. It’s where he feels most like himself, dreaming of days spent basking in the sun, surrounded by the vibrant beauty of hydrangeas swaying in the breeze. Like a ginger cat, he exudes a warmth and liveliness that makes him impossible to ignore, but with a quiet depth that’s just as captivating.

Music is central to his world, especially songs by Tabber, whose soulful beats and raw lyrics resonate deeply with his energy and emotions. Listening to his favorite tracks is not just a hobby but a ritual, grounding him amidst the chaos of life. Judd’s go-to comfort food is soft cookies, perfectly paired with Tomoro, a drink that matches his love for something refreshing yet comforting. His style leans towards the effortless charm of casual Korean looks—clean, stylish, and relaxed, a reflection of his down-to-earth personality. Stepping into this role was seamless for Judd, as it aligns perfectly with his real-life traits and quirks. His everyday self already embodies the same fiery energy, loyalty, and heart, making his portrayal feel genuine and relatable.
