With just a day left until the first broadcast, anticipation is at an all-time high. Here, we reveal four key points that will further enhance the drama's immersion.
# Trusted Actors Namkoong Min, Jeon Yeo-been, Lee Sul, and Seo Hyun-woo Deliver Solid Performance Synergy
Namkoong Min (playing Lee Je-ha), who has swept South Korea with every project, and Jeon Yeo-been (playing Lee Da-eum), known for her versatile acting, meet as a film director and an actress in the drama, creating a solid romantic synergy. Along with them, Lee Sul (playing Chae Seo-young) and Seo Hyun-woo (playing Boo Seung-won), known for their wide acting spectrum, join forces to promise a chemistry of trusted actors.
# A Director with No Next Project and an Actress Living as if Today is Her Last, a Love Story That Can't Wait
Lee Je-ha (played by Namkoong Min), the son of a legendary film director, decides to remake his father's movie for his next project after a five-year hiatus following his acclaimed debut. Initially starting as a director and actress, they gradually fall genuinely in love as the shooting progresses. This story of two people loving passionately and desperately as if today is their last, heightens curiosity towards 'Our Movie'.
# The Joy and Sorrow of Directors, Actors, Producers, and Staff Creating Everyone's Masterpiece
In the drama, director Lee Je-ha and producer Boo Seung-won (played by Seo Hyun-woo) share the same goal of creating a beloved movie but have differing views on authenticity, completion, and box office success. The contrasting positions of the director and producer create a thrilling tension. Additionally, the friendship between newcomer Lee Da-eum and veteran Chae Seo-young (played by Lee Sul) as actors in the film industry adds a rich layer of entertainment. The intertwined relationships of directors, actors, producers, and staff united by their love for cinema are also noteworthy.
# Director Lee Jung-heum's Melodramatic Venture Following Detailed Works Like 'Manipulation' and 'Spectator'
Director Lee Jung-heum, known for his detailed and fresh direction in works like 'Falsify', takes on a melodramatic challenge with 'Our Movie'. Previously, Lee mentioned, "Avoiding the direction I tried in past works was a new attempt for me. I pondered a lot on how to embody the metaphor of cinema, focusing on the actors' emotional expressions and fleeting moments." The melodrama in 'Our Movie', enriched by his perspective, sparks curiosity.
Thus, 'Our Movie' delicately captures the stories of life, love, and dreams through the perspectives of those both in front of and behind the camera, hinting at its potential to become everyone's masterpiece. The unfolding stories within their movie make the premiere of 'Our Movie' highly anticipated.
'Our Movie' follows 'The Haunted Palace' and premieres on the 13th at 9:50 PM.
