Actor Lee Dong-hwi played the role of Lee Dong-hwi and performed the method.

On the afternoon of the 13th, a press distribution preview of the movie "Method Acting" was held at Megabox COEX in Gangnam-gu, Seoul. Actors Lee Dong-hwi, Yoon Kyung-ho, Kang Chan-hee and director Lee Ki-hyuk attended the press conference after the premiere.

"Method Acting" is a story about Lee Dong-hwi, a "funny actor" who came out as a comedy but doesn't want to do comedy, getting too immersed in his role to be recognized for his sincere acting.

Lee Dong-hwi said, "We have been together from the beginning of the scenario planning and development stage. I hope this story is not a movie that only contains the grievances or concerns of the actor. "I developed a scenario and worked with it to make many people think that it might be 'my story' that challenges them between what they want to do and what they need to do."

Lee Dong-hwi said, "When I was acting in comedy, I was confused for a while (like a character in a play), but I was more grateful than depressed. I thought I should be grateful for even such an opportunity. "There may be concerns that Lee Dong-hwi has in the play, but I am grateful to that human Lee Dong-hwi and the old actor Lee Dong-hwi," he confessed.

In addition, Lee Dong-hwi said, "From the beginning of planning, I thought about developing something creative in it, starting with the personal things of a person named me, rather than vaguely drawing a fictional person or someone in a job I don't know. I had a lot of thoughts about exactly what point I should show myself and what to take out, playing myself, he said. "I don't want to play me again." After this work, I won't be playing myself," he said.

Yoon Kyung-ho said, "I formed a relationship with director Lee Ki-hyuk, who was originally an actor, while doing the drama 'Confession', and I was contacted to work with him. Lee Dong-hwi played Lee Dong-hwi and I played Lee Dong-tae as Lee Dong-hwi. At first, I thought it was too much of a fish name, he said. "When I saw the short story 'Yeo and Method Acting', I had confidence in the director and I had an expectation to be with actor Lee Dong-hwi. The script was fun and novel. I was glad to work on it," he explained.

Coach Lee Ki-hyuk said, "Every human being has two sides, and I wanted to show that. "Method acting" has a brief SF, comedy, historical drama, and even a musical in one movie. I can see various genres appropriately in one movie, so I think it will be fun to gather and watch together in the theater," he said.

Director Lee Ki-hyuk then said, "Because I've been an actor, I know the air and pressure I felt on the spot. Not every scene can be enjoyable, so sometimes it's lonely, and if you put that experience into your work.. I thought it would look realistic, he said, adding, "I also included my autobiographical story. When communicating with the actors, I tried to share my thoughts as much as possible not only to the main characters but also to the actors in Jordan. When I was an actor, I was dominated by the scene, so I tried to make the scene comfortable."

During the Q&A session, director Lee Ki-hyuk explained the acting of Kim Geum-soon's mother subversive in the play and said, "My mother always sees me as her mother. I accidentally looked at my mom's Kakao Talk, and I put down the role of "Mom" and watched conversations with my friends and faced her as a human being, and it was a bit new and difficult. The hospital room scene was the only moment when Kim Geum-soon put down her role as a mother in the play and was the only human subvert," he said, shedding tears.

Attention is focusing on how many audiences Lee Dong-hwi's method acting can capture.

Meanwhile, Method Acting will be released on the 18th.
