Actor Choi Min-sik credited his juniors for the atmosphere on the set of 'Intern'.

On the 24th, a production briefing for 'Intern' (directed by Kim Do-young) was held at Seoul Yongsan-gu CGV Yongsan i-Park Mall. Director Kim Do-young and actors Choi Min-sik and Han So-hee attended the event.

The film 'Intern' tells a story of office life that transcends both generation and rank, beginning when Ki-ho (played by Choi Min-sik), a silver intern with 37 years of experience, joins the company of Sun-woo (played by Han So-hee), who has rapidly emerged as a dark horse in the fashion industry just three years after its launch.

Director Kim Do-young cited Choi Min-sik as a mood-maker. He said, "The senior is truly cheerful. We filmed very enjoyably on set," and added, "What surprised me most was that even though the filming schedule was tight, the senior fell asleep while smiling and then woke up."

He continued, "Even when the set was tough, it seems to have flowed comfortably overall thanks to the senior," conveying that Choi Min-sik added positive energy to the filming atmosphere.

In response, Choi Min-sik joked, "It's partly because I'm naturally a joker," while also crediting the actors who worked with him.

He said, "All the other actors are young and professional. We are not people who gathered to play," adding, "We are people who came together to create a great work called 'Intern' and to express each of our characters as well as possible."

He further explained, "Rather than me leading the atmosphere of this work, whenever I dropped something, the other actors caught it well and responded accordingly. We got along very professionally."

While saying, "I just had to slip in subtly without drawing attention," he expressed his affection by stating, "Thanks to my wonderful juniors, I filmed with great joy and happiness."
