[Interview①] Nam Joo-hyuk "Reuniting with Han Ji-min, Preparing through Communication Before Filming"

[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Isul] Actor Nam Joo-hyuk said that acting with Han Ji-min for the second time was comfortable.

Nam Joo-hyuk shared stories about the movie "Josee" (directed by Kim Jong-kwan) during an online video interview held on the 7th.

Nam Joo-hyuk plays Yeong-seok, who enters Josee's world, and co-stars in a romance with Han Ji-min, who plays Josee, a character living in her own world. This is their second collaboration after the drama "The Light in Your Eyes".

On this day, Nam Joo-hyuk said, "In a short period, I got to work on two projects with Han Ji-min. Director Kim Jong-kwan liked her performance in 'The Light in Your Eyes'. There weren't many scenes with Han Ji-min in the drama, so it was a bit disappointing, but we talked about doing better through 'Josee'."

Nam Joo-hyuk recalled, "This time, there were many scenes together, so we communicated a lot while creating them. We prepared by communicating a lot even before filming started, so I was able to act comfortably."

He added, "We made it with the mindset of filling two hours with wonderful scenes. I felt more confident than burdened that we could make it well."

About Han Ji-min, Nam Joo-hyuk said, "Her attitude of respecting people is impressive. She treats others comfortably. She always does her best when acting, even during scenes where the other actor is filming," and added, "I felt that people couldn't help but like her."

Nam Joo-hyuk said, "She always says she is lacking, but I often say that she is a senior actor from whom not only I but everyone can learn a lot," and shared, "I always thought I should learn more."

"Josee" is a film depicting the most shining moments shared by Josee (played by Han Ji-min), a name unforgettable from the day they first met, and Yeong-seok (played by Nam Joo-hyuk). The film is directed by Kim Jong-kwan, who also directed "Worst Woman" and "The Table". It will be released on December 10.
