"Personality controversy? Performer reference check carefully, over 1000 applicants" '(19/20)
Producer Kim Jae-won, who directed 19 and 20 following Seasons 1 and 2 of Solo Hell, said, “This is the story of a 04-year-old who spends the last week of his teens and the first week of his 20s. It can be said that it is the last generation where everyone becomes an adult before it changes.”
I heard there was a special rule only for ‘Nineteen Twenty’. Kyuhyun said, "(The cast members) took classes directly inside the school as if they were really going to school. There is one special and only rule. 'No dating'. You can do anything else, but you shouldn't be dating." ", he replied with a laugh.
PD Kim Jeong-hyun said, "I wanted to teach you special things that school doesn't teach when you become an adult. I wanted to help you by teaching you information you need in real life, such as how to write an employment contract in relation to the law. I remember my friends who went to school when the corona was severe. There weren't many people like this, so I tried to go to field experiences," he explained.
In many dating programs, controversy arose about the 'past' or 'personality' of non-celebrity performers. Likewise, in the process of recruiting non-celebrity performers, the production team must have had a burden on them. When asked if there was a standard for selecting regular performers, PD Park Soo-ji said, "As soon as the application announcement was made, more than 1,000 people applied. I did. There are friends with various dreams such as table tennis players and flight attendants.”
When asked if there was any concern about the 'past' controversy of ordinary performers, PD Kim Jae-won said, "I'm trying to verify it carefully. Through a psychiatric counseling expert, I also asked whether non-performers 'have the mentality to film this program' and recorded their life records. I also confirmed it. I met my acquaintances and parents and checked the references of 'what kind of person this friend is', so I think it will be okay, but in the future, I constantly consulted and edited carefully so that my friends would not be hurt."
Netflix's '19/20 Nineteen Twenty' is a youth reality entertainment that records the special moments of growth of the still clumsy and fresh generation Z between the last week of nineteen and the first week of twenty.
Released on Netflix on the 11th.
