Actor Lee Dong-hwi is back as Lee Dong-hwi. Lee Dong-hwi laughed, saying, "I don't want to play myself again."
The movie "Method Acting" (director Lee Ki-hyuk) tells the story of Lee Dong-hwi, a "funny actor" who is popular as a comedy but doesn't want to do comedy, being overly immersed in the role to be recognized for his sincere acting. Lee Dong-hwi played the role of Lee Dong-hwi in the play.
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. "We developed a scenario and worked together 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," he explained.
Lee Dong-hwi said, "It's really the moment I dreamed of. The time between planning and making this film and the release is passing by like a beacon. It's a touching moment to come out of the world after a big challenge, he said. "I didn't know when it would be released, but I got hurt on December 31st and lied down in the emergency room on January 1st and thought, 'It must be hard this year.' Then, shortly after, I was moved to receive the release date. I was happy enough to cry. It was a number of challenges."

Lee Dong-hwi said, "I also did it with great ambition. In particular, while watching Ma Dong-seok, I thought that it was really meaningful to make a movie. As Ma Dong-seok produced a movie and made a movie, a job was created. Watching many people work through the work, I thought that the honor and reputation of the actor are important, but I can also help those around me. I felt a lot of things. I also thought about how to share it with people, and I had that ambition to try before it's too late," he explained.
Regarding playing Lee Dong-hwi in the play, Lee Dong-hwi said, "The most me-like figure is at home with my mother. I actually wear my own clothes and I'm just the same. When I grew my hair, wore a headband, and grew a beard, I thought a lot about whether I could show my real life to the audience through the movie. When I saw it myself, I thought it was really ugly, and I thought it might be rude, but that's what I really am. I was sweating a lot throughout the movie. I didn't even put on makeup as much as I could. "I didn't do it at all, but I looked so sick that I barely did it," he said.
Lee Dong-hwi wore his own clothes in the drama. In particular, a hat wearing Leonardo DiCaprio catches the eye. Lee Dong-hwi said, "I'm sorry to DiCaprio, but I think DiCaprio would be happy when I thought about who is the really happy actor. I thought that I was an actor who worked with the script I wanted with the production team, including the director, who can control the timing of release. I vaguely imagined that the investment issue would be convenient. So I wore that hat in envy of DiCaprio," he confessed.
Lee Dong-hwi said, "When my mother watched the movie, she said, 'What if I do what I do at home?' It was that much. "I thought it was a proof of filial impiety because it was my actual self and the way I tapped it was my actual self," he said. "These days, my mother and father are old, and I'm the only son, so I think I'm going to be a good son. I'm trying to appear in content that can be viewed comfortably, and I'm trying to act that my family will be proud of," he said, adding, "I've been acting from a blunt son to a friendly son, maybe a method since two years ago. We also open a group chat room on Kakao Talk and talk on the phone every day. "I express my love to my parents every day somehow," he said.
Winner Song Min-ho attended the recent VIP preview of Lee Dong-hwi's movie, which became a hot topic. Song Min-ho is famous as a best friend with Lee Dong-hwi, so it was interpreted that he attended to support Lee Dong-hwi. However, as Song Min-ho is currently awaiting his first trial on charges of violating the Military Service Act, many stories have been told about this. Song Min-ho's side has applied for a postponement of the trial and is facing its first trial next month.
Lee Dong-hwi said, "I didn't invite Song Min-ho." If so, when asked if Song Min-ho had been contacted at the scene about his attendance, Lee Dong-hwi explained, "I didn't contact him, but I only heard that he attended at the scene."
Lee Dong-hwi also explained that he would never play Lee Dong-hwi again. "I was very confused because I was worried that my mother's health issues in the play (Kim Geum-soon) would be similar to my real life," he said. In particular, Geumsoon looks a lot like my mom. It was very hard while filming, and it was a little hard to show my mother the setting that she was sick. "I thought that I could see a point of contact with human Lee Dong-hwi's life," he said.
