Following Lee Sun-kyun and Jenny, today is the first entry into Cannes.
Today is actor Song Joong-ki's day. Song Joong-ki's first film to enter Cannes, 'Hwaran' (director Kim Chang-hoon), will be screened for the first time through an official screening held at the 76th Cannes Film Festival Salle Debussy in Southern Cannes, France on the 24th at 11:00 am (local time). Including director Kim Chang-hoon, Hong Sa-bin, Song Joong-ki, and Kim Hyung-seo will attend.

Before entering Cannes, Song Joong-ki took a proof shot in front of a 'Hwaran' poster, wore a hat with 'Hwaran' written on it, and enjoyed the joy of walking through the streets of Cannes. In the interview, he said that he participated in the event in a pleasant mood, such as asking to "take a lot of pictures."

Song Joong-ki is spending his shining days catching both work and love. As well as entering the Cannes Film Festival, it is because British actress Katie Louise Saunders, who gave birth to her wife, is about to give birth to a second child. It is said that Song Joong-ki did not hide his anticipation for the second generation and did not hide his love for his wife Katie. In particular, Song Joong-ki is expected to accompany Katie on this day and stand at an official event related to 'Hwaran', raising expectations.

'Hwaran' (director Kim Chang-hoon), which became Song Joong-ki's first film to enter Cannes, was named in the Un Certain Regard section at the Cannes International Film Festival. This section introduces unique works depicting various regions and cultures. 'Hwaran' is a low-budget noir film, in which Song Joong-ki appeared with no carity. The story unfolds as Yeon-kyu (played by Sa-bin Hong), a boy who wants to escape from a hellish reality, meets Chi-geon (played by Song Joong-ki), the boss of the organization, and joins them in the precarious world.

On the other hand, on the 21st, Lee Sun-gyun was screened in 'Sleep' (director Jae-sun Yoo) during the day, and at midnight on the same day, the movie 'Escape: PROJECT SILENCE' (director Kim Tae-gon, hereinafter 'Escape') was screened. It is unusual for an actor to meet the audience with two films on the same day at the Cannes Film Festival.

In addition to being invited to two unusual films, Lee Sun-kyun enjoyed the festival of glory at the Cannes Film Festival accompanied by his wife, actress Jeon Hye-jin, and their two sons, Yiru-gun. Jeon Hye-jin and her two sons shared the joy of stepping on the red carpet with Lee Sun-gyun. Lee Seon-kyun showed extraordinary family love by talking about Jeon Hye-jin and his two sons on variety shows, so he must have shown his two sons a proud father as an actor. It seems that attending the Cannes Film Festival was an unforgettable memory and good learning for the two sons of actor parents.

Lee Seon-kyun said at the preview held after the screening of 'Escape', "I was relieved to hear that the children did not fall asleep and watched the movie with a sense of immersion until the end and had so much fun."

The next day, the 22nd (local time), was Jenny's day. Jenny walked on the red carpet with actor and singer Troye Sivan in the name of the actor at around 10 pm on the same day. On this day, Jennie wore a bell-line medium-length white dress, accented with a black hair ribbon and shoes, creating a classic mood. While feeling cute and lively, elegance coexisted.

Fans waiting for Jenny's appearance on the red carpet did not stop shouting at Jenny. In response to the cheers of the fans, Jennie drew attention with a superstar-like attitude, such as blowing a kiss and greeting.

Jennie starred in the HBO drama The Idol, co-produced and starring pop star The Weeknd. This drama, Jennie's debut as an actress, is set in the music industry of Los Angeles (LA) and contains the world of the music industry and love story of a popular female pop singer. Including The Weeknd, Johnny Depp's daughter and actress Lily-Rose Depp took on the lead roles, and boasts a splendid lineup including Troye Sivan and Dan Levy. Jenny played Diane, a backup dancer for Jocelyn, the main character who dreams of becoming a pop star. 'The Idol' was invited to the non-competition section.
