Set to premiere on the 13th (Friday) at 9:50 PM, the new SBS Friday-Saturday drama "Our Movie" (written by Han Ga-eun and Kang Kyung-min, directed by Lee Jung-heum) tells the urgent love story of a director, Lee Jeha (played by Namkoong Min), who has no future plan, and an actress, Lee Daum (played by Jeon Yeo Been), who believes today could be her last.
In the drama, Lee Jeha, who once basked in the limelight with his debut film, has been out of the public eye for five years, unable to produce any new work. His father's reputation as a legendary figure in the film industry has only intensified the focus on Jeha, with the tag "son of a cinematic master" following him around. The anticipation for his next project was naturally high, thanks to his debut film's artistic flair, reminiscent of his father's legacy.
However, the world quickly forgot about the reclusive Jeha until news broke that he suddenly decided to take up the director's baton for a remake of his father's film, "White Love". The reason behind Jeha's return to his father's work after years of hiding sparks curiosity. Moreover, the unveiling of Jeha's hidden wounds and the complex narrative weaving through his work and family relationships promise to add depth to the drama.
Photos released on the 4th capture the daily life of director Lee Jeha, drawing attention. His professional demeanor and the contemplative look in his eyes even while working hint at his deep passion for filmmaking.
Moreover, "Our Movie" brings a fresh twist by showcasing the creation of another film within the drama itself. Namkoong Min, who plays Lee Jeha, shared, "The part that intrigued me when I first read the script was exactly that. The structure of creating a film within a film, and the fact that this movie is not just a prop within the drama but a tool reflecting the character's emotions and life, struck me as incredibly appealing."
Namkoong Min's exploration of the boundaries between film and life can be seen in the premiere of the new SBS Friday-Saturday drama "Our Movie" on the 13th (Friday) at 9:50 PM.
