Fans of actor Jung Jun-won donated 2 million won to the independent film Sharing Space in the name of the actor.
On June 18, 2025, Jung Jun-won's fan club '119bpm' commemorates one month since the end of the drama 'Resident Playbook' by participating in support for independent films, inscribing a nameplate for [actor Jung Jun-won] in seat I13 of the Indie Space screening room. Jung Jun-won was loved for his role as Gu Do-won in 'Resident Playbook,' which recently aired.
Indie Space has confirmed a special screening of 'Like a French Film' (2016, Shin Yeon-sik) at 7 p.m. on June 18 (Wednesday) to commemorate this Sharing Space donation. 'Like a French Film' premiered at Indie Space in January 2016, where it met audiences, and Jung Jun-won took on his first lead role in the second episode 'The Girl Selling Beer,' leaving a deep impression on viewers with his soft yet solid image.
This special screening of 'Like a French Film' will be meaningful for a diverse audience, including those who have seen the film before, as well as new viewers who will have their first encounter with actor Jung Jun-won at the theater. It is also expected that the spontaneous Sharing Space donation from Jung Jun-won's fans and the special screening will have a positive impact not only on independent films but also on the entire domestic film industry.
Indie Space, which opened in 2007, is Korea's first private independent film theater, showcasing various Korean independent films through releases, exhibitions, and screenings. The 'Sharing Space donation' allows contributors of 2 million won or more to have their names inscribed on the seats of Indie Space. This method of support has continued steadily since the theater's reopening in 2012 due to the interest and affection from audiences, directors, actors, and various film organizations. The efforts of filmmakers and audiences who come together to support and cheer for independent films have become a reliable support for independent cinema.
