Actor Yoo Ji-tae praised Park Ji-hoon, who worked with him in "The Man Who Lives with the King," as "an actor who will do better."
At a cafe in Samcheong-ro, Jongno-gu, Seoul on the 29th, I met with actor Yoo Ji-tae of 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 a movie about 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 Ji-tae played the role of Han Myeong-hoe, the most powerful man of his time.
Yoo Ji-tae said, "I worked hard because Han Myeong-hoe has to play the role of the axis of evil in this work, and I was curious about the reaction, but I am grateful that the reaction was better than I thought."
He said, "It's my first work with coach Jang Hang-joon," adding, "He's a coach who can draw the common people well. Maybe he's the number one movie director in Korea," he said. He said, "It stands out for humanity, but the ideas and wit are very fresh when writing. When I first encountered "The Man Who Lives with the King," I thought there would be a drama where I could feel the sorrow and compassion of the two. I used twice as much energy because I don't fall for that 'two people'. I know very well how lonely a director is and how painful it is. So basically, I have the idea of respecting the director and the writer, and I think about how to support them without burden. I don't say anything that the coach would be a little burdensome, but I show it with actions or results," he said with a smile.
Regarding the discontinuation of "The Man Who Lives with the King," Yoo Ji-tae praised Park Ji-hoon, who played the role of Danjong, saying, "The atmosphere and color he had were important." He said, "My first feeling was that he was very serious, and I felt that he was sincere as an actor. I was very careful and I felt that I would be better (as an actor) when I saw him act," he said.
Even before filming, I said, 'I think this movie will be your movie.' He said, "I think Danjong will stand out," and added, "Since it's been a while since I debuted, I can't help but like someone with a clear soul in the professional world, but actor (Park) Ji-hoon is like that."
Yoo Ji-tae said he discovered a real actor in Park Ji-hoon. He said, "We talked about it at the VIP premiere after party, and he was serious about his next film. I said I'm doing really well, and I think it's going to be better," he added.
