Director Hong Sangsoo and Actor Kim Min-hee appeared in the official ceremony in two years.
On this day, director Hong Sangsoo and Kim Min-hee stood side by side in photo call wearing black clothes. Director Hong Sangsoo was more emaciated than before, and Kim Min-hee gathered attention with his face with little toilet. The two men, wearing thin Couplings, exchanged their eyes during the photo shoot or smiled with a light smile and gave a friendly atmosphere.
The new film directed by Hong Sangsoo and his 27th film, "The Novelist's Movie," is a story about the story of a novelist Jun-hee (Lee Hye-Yeong), who met the film director and his wife in the long way to a younger bookstore, and then met actress Gil-soo (Kim Min-hee) to propose a film appearance by the film director and his wife. Kim Min-hee was named as an Actor and production director in the movie of the novelist following his previous work 'Introduction'.
Hong Sangsoo was asked about the process of creating natural emotions and atmosphere in the work on the day, saying, "I do not think I really pursue something natural." I just like to see small details that work as a big fActor. So it requires relatively more natural acting. "
Regarding Actor casting, "casting is probably the most important part of making movies." Most of the Actors such as Kim Min-hee and Lee Hye-Yeong worked together in the past, but in this meeting, they received different energy that they did not feel. The experience stimulated something in me. "He said," I think that the process is important at the casting stage. I think that it is all combined with what impression it gets when I meet a person and what it touches in me. "
Kim Min-hee said, "I worked as a production manager when I shot the movie 'In front of your face', but it was the first time I had a breath as an Actor." This work deals with the story of the relationship, and I was able to learn a lot about the relationship through my work with Lee Hye-Yeong. "Kim Min-hee said," I am nervous every time I stand in front of the camera. It is true that it is hard for me to stand in front of people, "he said." But it is not everyday. I am usually nervous, but I live in front of the camera no longer as I am, so when I act, I feel more free than usual. "
Director Hong Sangsoo and Kim Min-hee also attended the red carpet event, and the two people who took the picture closely joined the theater and laughed brightly as they watched where their photos were taken. Hong Sangsoo made a friendly skinning to touch Kim Min-hee's shoulder, and Kim Min-hee made a unique eyeball.
On the other hand, director Hong Sangsoo and Kim Min-hee developed into a lover relationship through the movie "Now is right and then it is wrong" released in 2015. The pair admitted having an affair in March 2017 during the media premiere of the film "Only on the Beach at Night" saying they were "in love."
