Director Lee Won-seok revealed the reason why he started the movie ‘Killing Romance’.
On the morning of the 24th, a production briefing session for the movie ‘Killing Romance’ (directed by Lee Won-seok) was held at the Lotte Cinema Konkuk University entrance in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul. Director Lee Won-seok, actors Lee Ha-nui, Lee Sun-kyun, and Bae Yu-ram attended the event.
'Killing Romance' is about top star Yeorae (played by Lee Ha-nui), who suddenly announces her retirement after falling in love with island tycoon Jonathan (played by Lee Seon-kyun), and meets Beom-woo (played by Gong Myeong), a student from the third member of the fan club, and plots an unusual comeback plan. It's a story.
Director Won-seok Lee, who directed 'Men's Manual', and Jeong-ye Park, writer of 'Beauty Inside', began their work under the motto of "let's create something that has never existed in the world." As the title is 'Killing Romance', the formula of romance genre films was excluded and a story close to anti-romance was completed.
On this day, director Lee Won-seok made everyone laugh by saying, “You know the plot of ‘Killing Romance,’ right?” He said, "It's a very interesting movie. I always hear extreme scenarios in our country. 'Killing Romance' was the most ordinary and well-written scenario."
He continued, "He said he would let me do whatever I wanted. That he would do whatever I wanted was something I would never hear in my life. Ever since I was young, I had been told not to do it, but they even gave me money and told me to do whatever I wanted, so I started doing it. There are many reasons. "I did my best under the circumstances. The actors worked very hard. They went above and beyond," he added.
Meanwhile, 'Killing Romance' will be released on April 14th.
