In a work directed by Namgung Min, actress Jeon Yeo-bin will appear.
On the afternoon of the 10th, the production presentation for the SBS Friday-Saturday drama "Our Movie" (directed by Lee Jeong-heum / written by Han Ga-eun and Kang Kyung-min / produced by Studio S and Beyond J) took place at CGV Yongsan I-Park Mall in Yongsan, Seoul, with director Lee Jeong-heum and actors Namgung Min, Jeon Yeo-bin, Lee Seol, and Seo Hyun-woo attending.
"Our Movie" is a drama depicting the love story of the film director Lee Je-ha (played by Namgung Min) who has no tomorrow and the actor Lee Da-eum (played by Jeon Yeo-bin) whose today is the last. The drama is expected to generate solid melodrama synergy, featuring actor Namgung Min, who has created a syndrome and swept Korea with every work, and Jeon Yeo-bin, who has a thousand faces, as they meet as a director and actress. Additionally, Lee Seol, who has proven her presence by crossing various genres, and Seo Hyun-woo, known for his broad acting spectrum, will also be part of the cast.
On this day, Namgung Min expressed his thoughts on whether acting as a film director made him consider producing films again, saying, "All the people I meet privately are directors. Watching them, I realize that being a director is not something anyone can do. There are so many things to do, and so many things to pay attention to."
Namgung Min added, "I will take on challenges when I have accumulated sufficient achievements as an actor and have ideas. For now, I have many things I want to do as an actor, and I feel a lot of shortcomings, so I want to focus on acting."
When asked if he considered casting Jeon Yeo-bin for the film, he said, "If Yeo-bin allows it, that would be fantastic," adding, "Yeo-bin is an actress I always want to work with as an actor; she acts well, but she is also a lovely person. I miss her when I don't see her," praising her.
In response, Jeon Yeo-bin revealed, "Actually, when the filming ended, I told him that if he ever plans a good project or needs a partner, I hope he remembers me," and mentioned that they had already made a verbal agreement.
Meanwhile, Namgung Min commented on their chemistry, saying, "Partners are extremely important, and I believe that eye exchanges are crucial for such expressions. While working with actress Jeon Yeo-bin for the first time, I was pleasantly surprised by her dedication, and I received good energy that became a turning point in my drama. So, rather than acting, I feel like I acted very naturally, as if I really loved her on set. I hope the viewers will focus on that aspect."
Jeon Yeo-bin also praised her chemistry with Namgung Min, saying, "It’s truly commendable that a senior received an award at the 3rd Awards as an actor since it’s not a common achievement" and added, "As a junior actor, I had respect for him, and I really liked director Lee Jeong-heum's 'Gugyeong-i.' I was curious about their relationship after hearing they would reunite."
She continued, "Even while reading the script, I could hear the senior's voice coming from the character Lee Je-ha. It was fascinating, and I wanted to confirm it with my own eyes. My heart began to flutter. I thought that director Lee Jeong-heum’s melodramatic direction would be very refreshing. I felt like he would create a melodrama that I've never seen before."
Jeon Yeo-bin remarked, "Indeed, the two of them have already formed solid trust, and perhaps due to the respect I already had, my feelings of loving Lee Je-ha naturally surfaced. It seems the senior viewed that with affection, as he comforted me when I lacked confidence, and I felt emotions building up. I realized that our relationship had deepened with each other at some point."
The SBS new Friday-Saturday drama "Our Movie," featuring both of them, will air today (13th) at 9:50 p.m.
