Yoo Hae-jin becomes ‘40 million actor’
Actor Yoo Hae-jin became the number 40 million actor.
The movie 'Pamyo', which was released on the 22nd of last month, surpassed 10 million viewers in total, becoming the first movie to reach 10 million viewers this year. As a result, Yoo Hae-jin became an actor who has appeared in a total of four 10 million movies, including 'The King and the Clown' (2005), 'Veteran' (2015), 'A Taxi Driver' (2017), and 'Family' (2024).
One of the reasons for the box office success of 'Myo' is the chemistry between the four actors, including Yoo Hae-jin, Choi Min-sik, Kim Go-eun, and Lee Do-hyun, who are called 'Myovengers'. Among these, Yoo Hae-jin naturally blended into the play with his comfortable acting and was able to skillfully control the pace between laughter and tension. Yoo Hae-jin, who played Go Young-geun, the character closest to the audience's gaze in the movie, showed the dignity of an undertaker who cares about the president, while at the same time evoking the potentially heavy atmosphere of the play with his unique cheerful mannerisms, enhancing the quality of the work. Yoo Hae-jin played the role of 'Yuk-Gap', a clown, in 'The King and the Clown', his first 10 million movie, and became known to the public with his sly acting. In 'Veteran', he played the role of 'Choi Dae-woong', a henchman of a chaebol family, drawing attention with his unsmiling and vicious appearance. Robbed. In 'A Taxi Driver', he played the role of Gwangju taxi driver 'Hwang Tae-sul' and gave a deep impression with his sincere acting and dialect. In addition, he is a true 'trustworthy actor' with guaranteed acting skills and box office success in each of his films such as 'Lucky', 'Confidential Assignment', '1987', 'The Perfect Stranger', 'The Owl', and 'Sweet Sea: 7510', and is loved by the audience. I met you.
This year, less than three months later, Yoo Hae-jin visited audiences with the films 'Dog Days' and 'Bamyo', which have conflicting atmospheres. In this way, he has completed his own character with a different level of depth in each work, and is showing off his presence as an indispensable actor in the Korean film industry. Jang Jae-hyun, director of 'Breakfast', expressed deep trust in Yoo Hae-jin, saying, "He sees the entire movie like a director" and "He is an acting craftsman who amazingly fills in all the gaps in the movie." Even though it has been 28 years since his debut, we are already looking forward to the next work of Yoo Hae-jin, who is always new in everything from comedy to action and romance, and is still showing off his limitless acting skills.
Yoo Hae-jin, who started 2024 on a good note with ‘Payment’, is currently considering his next work.
