Mun Se-yun enjoyed camping in the front yard with Joo Hyun, and the two people who sat side by side and talked about stories naturally talked about 'acting'. Asked if he had a rival in acting, Joo Hyun said, "There can not be a rival in acting." Mun Se-yun mentioned Baek Il-seop of a similar image as a rival to his appearance, and he laughed, saying, "He looks younger because his forehead is a little less thin than me."
Joo Hyun improvised the acting know-how to Mun Se-yun, who explained by demonstrating the fine regional differences between Jeolla and Hamgyeong dialects. In a scene expressing charismatic eyes acting, Mun Se-yun made an exaggerated look with a lot of power in his eyes and pointed out, "Do not postpone, it is real not to act." Joo Hyun showed off his rusty acting skills by expressing the natural charisma that comes out of the court with a rather dull and relaxed expression.
The story of the drama "Seoul Ttukbaegi", which is considered to be the representative work of Joo Hyun, came out. In the 1990 KBS drama "Seoul Ttukbaegi", which was broadcasted on KBS and exceeded the average audience rating of 30%, Joo Hyun received a lot of love by Playing Andong Pal, a comic and humanistic employee. To this day, the ambassador "~ Gulangyo", which has become a representative buzzword of Joo Hyun, was born in this work. In 1990, he won the KBS Acting Award for Best Actor at the age of 48. Joo Hyun recalled, "I used to Play a lot of main characters in my neck, but if I did not do <Seoul Tukgi>, it would have been a big deal."
When Mun Se-yun asked, "When do you want to postpone it?", Joo Hyun replied, "As long as I can reach my physical strength," and confessed, "If I can postpone until my fate is over, I am the happiest person." However, Joo Hyun has recently revealed a sad story that he has not been able to work for a long time. Joo Hyun has not appeared in the last two years after MBC <There is no twice> in 2019.
Joo Hyun, 81, said: "Nowadays, dramas are also the subject of younger generations, and when we are about the age of our age, the roles that come in are limited. So the gap is long, "he said, expressing his regrets about the reality of the elder actors.
Joo Hyun still revealed his passion for acting at the age of eight. "It is the best happiness to die with good actors even if tears and life, meeting and farewell, and happiness Play a small role in the living work."
On the other hand, there are also senior actors who are still active in acting through constant efforts. Lee Soon-jae, who is appearing with Joo Hyun in The Last Godfather, is representative. Lee Soon-jae, who has 65 years of acting experience, released his schedule and was surprised by the schedule of the Play <King Lear> practice, local performances, university lectures, and other young star actors. When Hur Jae, who starred in the son role, worried about "when are you resting," Lee Soon-jae replied coolly, "You can rest at night."
Lee Soon-jae, 88, the oldest actor in the active role, said, "I am healthy when I move myself. Do not you have goals and motivation?" Lee Soon-jae's definition of "the happiest death is to die in postponement" coincided with Joo Hyun's quote as if promised.
Lee Soon-jae also personally showed how constant efforts are needed to continue his acting activities. Lee Soon-jae emphasized that "the first condition of the actor is memorization" and admired the name and order of the US president of the past, and the memory of the historical events without any error with his own know-how to maintain memorization. The thorough self-management, moderation, and enthusiasm for acting are the reasons why Lee Soon-jae is regarded as a sincere respect and role model for many young actors over his long career.
Recently, K-drama has been attracting worldwide attention based on the popularity of Korean Wave. However, it is a dark shadow that the generation - genre bias becomes worse and the work that gives consensus to various generations is rare behind it.
The daily drama and weekend dramas for middle-aged and older people are also popular with affair and Kahaani, and it is difficult to find the old common human-Family drama and authentic historical drama. Naturally, characters and spaces that can utilize generations of senior actors such as Lee Soon-jae and Joo Hyun were inevitably reduced. It is a scene that shows the reality of the job of an actor who can not shine if someone does not call.
Oh Young-soo's case, which has been attracting attention by appearing in the topic "Game of Squid", attracts attention to the value of hidden elder actors. Oh Young-soo has been mainly Playing Play despite his long acting career, and he Plays a role that is not mainly in popular movies and dramas, and he is an actor who has not a high Cognitive degree for generations these days. However, he Played the role of "Oil Nam" in <Squid Game> and recently appeared in the popular entertainment <What do you do when you Play>, and became the center of the topic at a small age. The late spotlight for Oh Young-soo is a scene that proves that there are many old actors who can shine when they are supported by good characters and Kahaani at any time.
Lee Soon-jae and Joo Hyun are still in Korea with the ability and experience to show their true value when given the opportunity at any time. It is just a matter of looking back on whether good actors are no longer able to get the opportunity to demonstrate their abilities in the flow of time and prejudice of age.
