Actor Lee Jong-won said he did not miss Melo even in the midst of fear.
On the 2nd, at a cafe in Samcheong-ro, Jongno-gu, Seoul, I met with actress Kim Hye-yoon of the movie "Salmokji" (director Lee Sang-min) and talked about various things.
A horror film that takes place when an unidentified figure is taken in the road view of "Salmokji" and the filming team headed to the reservoir for a re-shot faces something in the dark and deep water.
Lee Jong-won will take on his first commercial movie lead and first horror role as Yoon Ki-tae, an on-road media producer who joins the Salmokji belatedly and ex-boyfriend of "Su-in."
Lee Jong-won, who is afraid of the horror genre, said, "The script was so fun, and I was convinced as soon as I read it for the first time. "I can imagine it well, and I can draw it in my head, but I thought that I could make a lot more creepy and scary scenes if I worked on the video and it was released," he said.
"It's a genre I don't prefer, but I was greedy for this movie itself, so I told you I wanted to do it right away," he said. "I was more greedy than scared."
Lee Jong-won, who said, "I don't watch horror movies well, but I wasn't as scared as I thought when I filmed it," said, "Rather than being scared, I thought about how to become a reliable ex-boyfriend. I think I want to keep it beyond fear, so I focused on that part," he said.
Lee Jong-won said, "I found Melo in the horror alone," adding, "I visit so many of my lines that I can say that 'Su-in (played by Kim Hye-yoon)' is half."
"In 'Salmokji', Ki-tae appears in the middle of the scene and saves Su-in," he said. "I want to be a character who goes straight with one heart toward Su-in, even though he is a former boyfriend."
"Rather than calculating or hesitating when Su-in was in a threatening situation, I wanted her body to react first," he said, adding, "I also focused on that point and acted."
