Jang Hang-joon, director of "The Man Who Lives with the King," revealed Yoo Hae-jin's story.

On the 23rd, I met with director Jang Hang-joon, who directed the movie "The Man Who Lives with the King," at a cafe in Samcheong-ro, Jongno-gu, Seoul, 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. Director Jang Hang-joon attempted a new approach, breaking away from the fact that most mass media have focused on the process of usurping the throne by recreating before and after the Gyeyujeongnan.

On this day, director Jang Hang-joon maintains a long-standing friendship with Yoo Hae-jin, but it's been a long time since he worked with her. He said, "Before filming, I asked director Ahn Tae-jin of 'The Owl'. Director Ahn Tae-jin is also the director of "The Owl" and the assistant director of "The King's Man." I asked him because he knows both Yoo Hae-jin's past and present, and he said he received too much help, he said. "When I finished my work, I said the same thing."

Director Jang Hang-joon said, "Not to mention Yoo Hae-jin's performance, he is a great learner, and he has a lot of affection as a person." "During filming, one of the staff's Andong house was burned down in a fire. There was no place to live and the house had to be rebuilt, he said.

"While eating, Yoo Hae-jin said, 'I'll pay 5 million won, you should pay too.' At that time, the two raised money, and the key staff found out about this, so they filled the money and gave it to the staff," he said. "At that time, the staff's father called and Yoo Hae-jin talked on the phone as a representative. I think you spoke to the person with the largest amount of money. He said, "My father cried a lot and thanked me for helping someone he didn't even know."

In addition, director Jang Hang-joon expressed his gratitude to the actors and said, "While doing this work, I felt that 'movies are actors as expected'. Director Lee Joon-ik said that the first of the three elements of the movie is a scenario, a second scenario, and a third scenario. But I think the first scenario, the second, is an actor," he said.

"You have to write a good scenario to cast a good actor. Actors such as Yoo Hae-jin, Park Ji-hoon, Yoo Ji-tae, and Jeon Mi-do watch and choose the scenario, so the ability to write and see the actor's acting is important, but I think I did a good job."
