[Lee Hwa-jung’s Deep Detox] “I want to be a giant seedless grape, not a strawberry.” Meeting actor Lee Yeon, Part ② of “The 21st-Century Crown Princess,” “Tango at Dawn,” and “Gyeongju Trip”

[Lee Hwa-jung’s Deep Detox] “I want to be a giant seedless grape, not a strawberry.” Meeting actor Lee Yeon, Part ② of “The 21st-Century Crown Princess,” “Tango at Dawn,” and “Gyeongju Trip”

A talk that reaches the actor through deep, steady breathing, like a detox. The actors Lee Hwa-jung meets in her film journalism.
▶ The meeting with actor Lee Yeon continues from Part 1. ​〈Juvenile Judgment〉 is a different situation, but it’s a portrayal of the dark side of teenage youths. I can imagine that darkness running counter to Lee Yeon’s brightness must have felt overwhelming.

[Kim Ji-yeon's Jewelry Box] You Already Knew Lee Hyo-je! 'If Wishes Could Kill' Lee Hyo-je

[Kim Ji-yeon's Jewelry Box] You Already Knew Lee Hyo-je! 'If Wishes Could Kill' Lee Hyo-je

I am curious about people. Even if someone is already a noticed actor, today may be the least famous they'll ever be. 'Kim Ji-yeon's Jewelry Box' introduces actors who are reaching new highs by the day. Treat these 'soaring stocks' as 'buy-the-dip' opportunities.
The first time I saw Lee Hyo-je, or rather the first time I 'mistook' that I had seen him, was at a small theater. Earlier this year, Lee Hyo-je took the stage as the character Gi Ho-tae in the youth troupe Bu-eong Waltz's play 〈Escape from Reality〉.

[Interview] “From ‘Adult Gimjangha’ to ‘Namtaeryeong,’ the Plaza Evolves.” Director Hyunji Kim ②

That “long, long night” with a felt temperature of minus 20°C became, somehow, the “brightest night.” “This cute and spicy struggle—that’s the core of Namtaeryeong!”
​▶ 〈Namtaeryeong〉 The interview with Director Hyunji Kim continues from Part 1. ​I think you must have been thinking hard about the title. I also feel that the title 〈Namtaeryeong〉 has a tone that isn’t so different from 〈Adult Gimjangha〉.
