Actor Yoo Hae-jin of "The Man Who Lives with the King" expressed her feelings about working with director Jang Hang-joon.
At a cafe in Samcheong-ro, Jongno-gu, Seoul on the 22nd, I met with actor Yoo Hae-jin from the movie "The Man Who Lives with the King" (director Jang Hang-jun) and talked about various things.
"The Man Who Lives with the King" is the story of Cheongryeongpo in 1457, a chief who claimed to be exiled for the revival of the village, and a young predecessor who was expelled from the throne and exiled. Yoo Hae-jin plays Um Heung-do, the chief of Gwangcheongol, where King Danjong came to exile.
On this day, Yoo Hae-jin said about the reason why he was attracted to "The Man Who Lives with the King," saying, "I think the movie has a wide range of audience targets. I thought that this kind of work came out for the first time in a long time. I liked that it was a story that all generations could sympathize with. After reading the scenario, I thought, 'If I make it well, I'll come out with a good work,' he said.
Yoo Hae-jin said, "I have long-term know-how, and one of the big advantages is that I take the story well. To put it simply, I come up with an idea, and if you think it's good, you accept everything. If it goes well like that, the coach will take the ball," he said with a smile.
He continued, "That part is so convenient. But that's not easy. There are directors who show useless pride, but (Jang Hang-joon) doesn't have such a thing. It is also well open while keeping what needs to be kept. He said, "I write so well, and there are not only light parts, but also parts where I think, 'There's something like that?'"
He said he has been steadily close to director Jang Hang-joon, adding, "We haven't worked together, but we've been texting and having a drink. When I drink, I always say, "I like living happily like this," but I'm a very constant person. The advantage is that I don't grow up," he said.
