熱血消防員鎮宇(鄭雨盛飾)打算為女朋友秀貞(林秀晶飾)準備一個難忘的世紀求婚,點知因為怕醜緊張兼內向,一直錯過良晨。女友秀貞日日等落雨,希望男友不用入火場,最後,2人能否終成眷屬?

關於《真的愛你》
Eom Ju-young (故事構思人):
「早前,我因為搬屋而收拾,在執拾的期間,發現不少充滿回憶的物件,都是一些沒用或過時的東西,但沒辦法把它們丟棄。我發覺單單因為該物件擁有回憶,而不能把它丟棄,何況是與我們分享過喜怒哀樂的伙伴?現時有很多電影描述2人如何相識繼而相戀,但抽述分離的電影卻甚少。現實中,我們總有各種各樣的理由與無可奈何而被迫與情人、家人或朋友等分開。我在想拍一部分手的故事會如何呢?《真的愛你》不只是一個戀人分手的故事,而是表達人生各種漂亮的愛。

《真的愛你》:傷心可以有很多表達的方法…..
一個城市,有著四個看似分開卻又互相關連的故事。《真的愛你》用一個獨特的方式將八個不相識的生活交織在一起組成一個完整但令人心碎的故事。嶄新的演繹方式不但為觀眾帶來不同的享受,更令人完全投入感受戲中角色的悲傷。《真的愛你》就是一齣將我們生活中所有的感情和不同愛的感覺融合再一起的電影。

鄭雨盛飾演鎮宇
鎮宇是一名極有責任感的消防員,他的直覺和責任感不斷催促他要和女朋友結婚以"報答"女朋友對他的愛;但他同時因為自己的職業所涉及的危險性而一次又一次卻步。直至他體會到女朋友對自己的愛有多深,便決定鼓起勇氣向女朋友求婚,但最終仍然換來心碎的結局。

林秀晶飾演秀貞
戲中的秀貞是一名與我年紀相約的手語翻譯員。她其實是一個很普通的女孩,但因為戀上的是一名消防員,她便終日提心吊膽,怕一場火災便會把她心愛的男人帶走,所承受的壓力一點他不普通;但鎮宇和秀貞真的非常心愛對方。
當演到兩人分手的一幕時,就連我自己也不自覺地心痛起來;其中一幕秀貞問 "今天會否下雨呢?"更是我覺得最難忘的。

車太鉉飾演河錫
河錫苦讀三年,一心想做公務員,最後卻變成雙失青年。於是把心一橫,決定當常人肉沙包任人打來賺最外快,女朋友忍無可忍,向河錫提出分手。但天生樂觀派的河錫卻深信自己可以重奪女友芳心,更開了一間x煲事務所,一心為自己箍煲。
車太鉉話:"當我演呢個角色時,其實覺得河錫呢個 "x煲行業"好殘忍。河錫因為唔想自己面對分手而竟然幫手去拆散鴛鴦,決心將自己的希望建築於別人齔h苦身上。其實我一邊演呢個角色一邊為河錫內心所面對的而感到難過。"

孫泰英飾演淑賢
淑賢其實是一個頗現實的女孩子。她在特價點當收銀員,沉悶刻板的工作消磨了她對將來的憧憬;只看見眼前所擁有的她,不甘再與男朋友一齊捱苦,但又捨不得和男朋友的感情,兩難之間無法取捨。淑賢表面常變得越來越冷漠,希望可藉此令兩人感情凋淡;但看見男友對自己仍有"不死的精神",我想淑賢面對那份似有還無的關係,內心一定非常的難過。

廉晶雅飾演珠榮
戲中的珠榮是一個極為忙碌的事業女性,同時更要兼顧自己的家庭。對於自己未能好好照顧兒子,珠榮一即耿耿於懷,但實際生活需要令她無法適從。
"因為我從未結婚,更沒有兒女,我只能憑空想像怎樣去演好珠榮這個角色。雖然我花了不少時間向身邊已婚的朋友請教,但其實始終毫無頭緒,但有趣的是這套電影一開拍,我便不其然地很快投入料了自己的角色當中。這個故事真的觸動了我的心弦。雖然很清楚只是拍戲,但我對珠榮要離開自己兒子的無助仍是會感到一種無型的悲痛。"

汝鎮求飾演輝燦
輝燦年紀雖小,但脾氣卻很大,大概是因為他從來得不到應有的關懷和注視。可惜當他有機會和媽媽好好相處時,原來一切已經太遲……
"因為我演的是一個經常愁眉不展的小朋友,亦須要常常哭,所以我須要幻想很多不開心的事情,甚至想像真的要與自己的媽媽分開的情景。我常常想:如果我真的像輝燦一樣要和自己的媽媽分離,我一定會非常非常傷心的。"

新敏娥飾演秀恩
秀恩是一位聾啞一人士,臉上亦有一個被火燒傷的烙印,但她卻永遠面帶笑容,給人一個非常開朗的感覺。但她表面上的笑容看似是用來掩飾她內心深處的傷痛。當我演秀恩這個角色時,我亦不禁為她內心所面對的痛苦而難過。

李宇基飾演Sang Gyu
Sang Gyu在戲中是一位街頭畫家,在一次偶然的機會下遇上了秀恩,並深深被吸引著,更希望有機會一睹秀恩公仔造型背後的真面目,可惜總是和秀恩緣慳一面。雖然他一次又一次的失敗,但仍不斷努力嘗試,而我非常欣賞他那份真誠和單純的愛。

萬人迷車太鉉
擁有鄰家男孩般親切氣質的車太鉉在出道後不久的電視劇播放後立即大熱韓國,在接下來的"最受歡迎的韓國男明星"調查中,車太鉉以45.63%票數高踞第一名,遙遙領先第二名獲29%選票的元彬,成為韓國第一男影星,他推出首張個人音樂專輯《事故》(ACCIDENT)也榮登排行榜第一名。車太鉉曾連續18周佔據韓國"最受歡迎男藝人"排行榜首席,可見他在韓國的受歡迎程度。車太鉉在2000年度已被選為最佳男演員,可謂實至名歸。

車太鉉的超可愛孩子氣在《我的野蠻女友》當中簡直表露無遺,而《我的野蠻女友》的叫好叫座,為他引來更多電影商及廣告商的垂青。在第22屆韓國電影界權威獎項 "青龍獎" 上,車太鉉憑在電影《我的野蠻女友》中出色的演技,擊敗了實力超強的元斌,奪得"最佳男新人"獎,成為韓國最令人矚目的演藝新星。《我的野蠻女友》是車太鉉初踏影壇的"處男作",一上映就風靡韓國, 6天便打破了百萬觀眾大關,氣勢完全蓋過了《朋友》、《JSA安全地帶》及《生死諜變》等韓國大片。而《我的野蠻女友》更為他在東南亞闖出名堂。

在電影《我的野蠻女友》之後,《向左愛•向右愛》是車太鉉久休後的電影,夥拍兩位冒起的女演員孫藝珍及李恩宙,延續其悲情搞笑命運,並為電影唱的主題曲「不知道」和插曲「照片」。結果《向左愛•向右愛》在韓國好評如潮,入場人次超過160萬,並膺選為2002年韓國十大票房電影。

外剛內柔的鄭雨盛
外表硬朗健碩的鄭雨盛,縱橫韓國影圈十年,拍過十一部電影,他所演繹的多是堅壯強悍的角色。早前他跟全知賢及張東健一起拍攝韓國便服牌子Giodano廣告,粗獷的造型令人印象深刻。今次他一改形象接拍愛情電影,飾演一個當初被愛遺棄、不相信愛的人,到後來因為妻子的病而變得積極去愛護妻子,角色情緒起伏很大,然而他都能完全掌握。

鐵漢男兒背後,鄭雨盛亦有其感性的一面。於拍攝其中一個鏡頭時,他因為太投入角色,想起戲中主角的經歷而忍不住流淚,需要導演停機拍攝,好讓他平復心情才繼續拍攝。他更特別為《抱擁這分鐘》的預告片撰寫旁白,可見他對此片的投入及認真。

才華洋溢的林秀晶
林秀晶在念高中二年級時,一次偶然的機會在漢城的大學路看了一出由"大學聯合演劇小組"製作的舞臺劇,那部戲當時給她震撼的感覺至今仍在,也就是在那個時候,她第一次?生了以後相做演員的念頭。

98年跑去參加了學生時尚雜誌"Ceci"的模特選拔大會,獲Ceci大賞後由此進入娛樂圈。02年,她在《彈鋼琴的總統》堭o到了一個的角色,而這部電影便成了秀晶跨出的很重要的第一步。秀晶就像是被埋藏在地底的珍寶,需要靠人來發現和挖掘,而金知雲就是這個拓金人。03年是林秀晶人生中嶄新的一頁,在千人試鏡中,被鬼才導演金知雲慧眼看中,憑自然的演技和驚人的爆發力征服了忠武路,橫掃韓國2003年度各大電影獎的新人賞。金知雲曾對記者這樣說過:"因林秀晶對電影的獨到觀點,令她在試鏡時從多位參選者中脫穎而出"。 在一年的時間內以《薔花,紅蓮》和《...ing》中的出色表現強勢攻擊大銀幕後,主動找她邀戲的導演多了起來。林秀晶曾參演過兩齣KBS的電視劇,2001年的《學校》和2004年與蘇志燮攜手演出的《對不起•我愛你》。另外,林秀晶亦曾拍攝電影,當中包括《彈鋼琴的總統》(2002)、2003年韓國最賣座電影《姊魅情深》及《...ing》(2003)。

林秀晶曾奪多個獎項,包括:

性感新星-新敏娥
新敏娥外表冷淡平靜,但在韓國,她可以說是炙手可熱的性感新星,新敏娥原來是全智賢的中學同門師妹!新敏娥曾演出多個電視劇,包括與李秉憲合演的《美麗的日子》(2001),拍攝電影包括由張赫主演的《火山高校》(2001)及與柳承泛的《野獸與美女》(2005)等。新近的話題作品,包括與韓國小天王Rain合演的《這該死的愛情》(2005)。

導演-權宗冠
權宗冠導演一直致力於不同類型的短片拍攝,包括《28th October1979, a Sunny Sunday》(1999)、《Uncle Bar at the Barbershop》(2000),更藉以上短片吸引了國際電影圈的注意。2004年,憑《S-Dairy》一套關於英雄的愛情浪漫喜劇而贏得韓國觀眾的心。今次的《真的愛你》,導演再次完美地表現一個窩心的愛情小品。

About Sad Movie

Sad Movie... A story of all the world's separations

A foretold separation, resulting in a more beautiful love

All the main characters in Sad Movie go through a separation. As is implied in the film's title, the film ends in painful separation, and the film's 8 characters all have their own stories and reasons. However, the plotline which moves towards separation is filled with tenderness such that it remains a bright and warm story. The film shows the various kinds of separation we can experience in our own life, and highlights the tragic but beautiful moments of love which precede it. The particular strength of the film is that it makes us appreciate the people around us more through the stories of separation between family, friends, and lovers. A separation story dreaming of love, the separations in Sad Movie are love by another name.

I was cleaning up in anticipation of moving, and found my home filled with various things brought in from all sorts of places. Things that were broken, out of fashion, or which I never used, but which I couldn't quite bring myself to throw away. More than the object itself, it was because of the time and stories stored within those items... I remember the day when I had to part from my first car, Tico, which has grown old and didn't work well. If it's so hard to part from such objects, I wondered about those people with whom we shared so many emotions. There are so many movies about people who meet and start to love. However, I realized that it's hard to find films about people who separate. Actually, as we live our lives, we are forced to separate from so many precious objects and loved ones, parents, and friends, for so many different reasons. I wondered how it would be to make a film about people who break up with kind words. I wanted Sad Movie to depict not only separation between men and women, but the most sad and beautiful separations among all those that we encounter throughout our lives.

By Eom Ju-young (development, original concept)

Sad Movie... a film about sadness told with a new form

Eight main characters, four kinds of separation, one heartbreaking emotion

The four breakups experienced by Sad Movie's eight main characters are intercut to form a distinctive, unusually structured film. The stories about characters who resemble us, who love, break up, and go their separate ways, are untied and woven together into a single, detailed heartbreaking emotion. The new form attempted by Sad Movie not only gives viewers various kinds of enjoyment, but also allows them to recognize characters who share their own feelings. Sad Movie, the story of all our loves and separations, combines all the feelings of sympathy that we felt in other movies into one upgraded structure.

The process of putting diverse characters into one narrative, and using multiple actors to tell a single story, is in itself a new experience. The film carries a different structure from ordinary features, however I didn't want to create a film by binding together disparate pieces. I feel that, more than the individual stories of how the characters meet and what coincidences bring them together, the overall sense of emotion in the film is most important. In Sad Movie I made efforts to show the emotions felt by all the different couples, but I concentrated more on making all of the emotions in the film fit together to form a single tone. Against the backdrop of the sadness and anxiety created by separation, I tried to depict the warm and bright image of people living on after separating. I hope that viewers of this film are able to encounter a character in which they may discover themselves, or a moment in which a precious memory of their own life is reflected.

By Director Kwon Jong-kwan

The structure of the screenplay was so accomplished that it helped to clear away the actors' anxieties. It beautifully brought together the stories of painful separation and the lingering feelings of love and longing into a unified sadness at the end. The film's title and plot can be seen as another kind of love story, and is greatly moving. Up until the very moment of separations, the couples' love is presented in a realistic and pure way.

By Jung Woo-sung

In this screenplay there are stories of regret-filled separations, but the love we see is made more beautiful by those separations. Amidst the sadness expressed by different kinds of separation one can also discover smiles, happiness, and contentment. The film contains stories of the sort of couples that we often see around us, and seeing the efforts of the various actors made me anticipate a more beautiful movie. I wanted to become one of those characters.

By Im Soo-jung

Synopsis

Like a short spell of rain under the bright sunlight …

Separation came upon us suddenly...

'I want to save a man who's fallen in love.' - Jin-woo

The hot-blooded fireman Jin-woo (Jung Woo-sung), so that he can be forever with his much-loved girlfriend Soo-jung (Im Soo-jung), tries to prepare an impressive wedding proposal. However, being awkward at love, he keeps missing the chance to do it. At the same time a sense of apprehension continues to grow for Soo-jung, who prays every day for rain on behalf of her boyfriend who is always jumping into fires.

'I can't take it any longer... Every time I hear the siren, my heart drops.'

-Soo-jung

'It's frustrating, unnerving, scary, sad, and futile. Let's break up.' -Sook-hyun

Ha-seok (Cha Tae-hyun) is a pathetic new-generation man who has been unemployed for three years, and who is reduced to working part time as a boxing partner to earn money for dates. One day his girlfriend Sook-hyun (Son Tae-young) tells him coldly that she wants to break up. To win back the heart of Sook-hyun who has grown weary of being poor, Ha-seok starts up a 'separation agency' whereby he delivers breakup messages for people who have trouble saying the words themselves. By helping other couples to break up, can he save his own relationship?

'I started a separation agency so as not to separate from her.' -Ha-seok

'Tell my son thank you... for drawing me so prettily.' -Ju-young

The extremely busy mother Ju-young (Eom Jung-hwa) is worried that her elementary school-aged son Hwi-chan (Yeo Jin-gu) is turning into a problem child. His teacher even calls her in due to a picture diary in which Hwi-chan tells lies. Then one day, she learns that she does not have much more time left to spend with her son. At this time the mother who was unable to do much for her son and her troublesome son begin a late but beautiful reconciliation.

'It's great that I can see her whenever I want. I wish that she would keep being sick.'

-Hwi-chan

'I want to draw her just once.' -Sang-gyu

The deaf woman Su-eun (Shin Min-ah) who carries a burn on her face gets to know her first love Sang-gyu (Lee Ki-woo) at an amusement park. Without being able to speak or show her face, she merely hangs around in front of him, unable to leave his presence because of her infatuated heart. Without knowing her situation, Sang-gyu becomes curious about her face and starts to approach her... Will Su-eun have the courage to show him?

'Thank you anyway for saying it. But I don't want to hear any more.' -Soo-eun

We love each other so much, but now we must separate.

Character & Cast

'Today, I'm going to make her the happiest woman in the world.'

Jin-woo_A hot-blooded fireman filled with a sense of duty, a man who has fallen in love.

Jin-woo in the words of Jung Woo-sung

Jin-woo is a firefighter with a strong sense of duty. He's an ordinary man whose instincts push him to accept Soo-jung's love and to consummate their relationship in marriage, but his reasoning causes him to hesitate because of the danger of his profession. After realizing the extent of Soo-jung's love, and at the moment he takes a step toward furthering their love, they encounter a painful separation.

Korea's top male actor, who moves the heart with his rich emotion

Jung Woo-sung in the words of Im Soo-jung

I could learn a lot from Jung Woo-sung, both in terms of film and on a human level. It was only a short time, but during the film's shooting I learned from the way he treated the crew and the way he prepared for his acting. I could understand the reason why he has remained a top star for ten years. As we would act together he would absorb 100% of the emotions I expressed, and return even more of his own. Occasionally he would discard the acting that he had prepared and improvise on the spot to match my emotions. He is truly an actor who is rich in sensitivity and expressiveness.

'Every day I hope for rainshowers, for his benefit'

Soo-jung_A beginning sign language interpreter working at a TV station

Soo-jung in the words of Im Soo-jung

Soo-jung is an ordinary woman in love, an interpreter of sign language who is about the same age as me. She always feels uneasy because she is in love with a man who works in the dangerous job of a fireman, but she loves Jin-woo a great deal. The couple of Soo-jung and Jin-woo love each other deeply and sometimes act like friends, sometimes like lovers. While acting the role I began to feel quite warm-hearted, so it's all the more painful when they had to break up. Soo-jung's worry in the scene where she asks before the start of the news if there will be rain is a memorable one.

An adorable-looking actress who can move anyone to tears with her heart-rending acting.

Im Soo-jung in the words of Jung Woo-sung

An open-hearted actress who could sense and respond to my emotions well. She carries a purity about her, and is a woman who makes you want to love and protect her. A person who you want to see and stay in touch with over a long time, like a younger sister.

'If only I could win her back, I don't care if everyone else in the world separates.'

Ha-seok_ In his third year of studying for the public service exam. He gets by with money from boxing or from his girlfriend's spending money, and has opened a "separation agency" to help couples break up.

Ha-seok in the words of Cha Tae-hyun

A poor, unemployed man studying to be a public servant. In order to earn a few dollars he takes part in boxing practice as a side job, getting beaten up for money, and later he experiences a painful breakup, but he is a instintively optimistic person. Even though his girlfriend declares to him that she wants to break up, he believes that he can win her back, and tries his best to do so. In order to save his own relationship he starts a strange business known as a "separation agency" to help other couples break up. While acting, it seemed like a really poor thing to do. It is such a cruel profession, but he continued at it, so while acting the part I couldn't help but feel sorry for him.

A new effort from the actor with a delicate sensibility behind his pleasant smile.

Cha Tae-hyun in the words of Son Tae-young

An always cheerful person. Usually at the start of shooting everything feels awkward, but thanks to his loosening of the atmosphere I was able to enjoy the shoot. Unlike the other couples, Sook-hyun and Ha-seok break up right at the beginning, so in that sense it was more difficult. However, because of Tae-hyun I was able to laugh while shooting. In that sense he had a great deal of concern for his acting partner. He would always joke around, but as soon as the shoot sign was given he would transform into his role, so it seems like he's a very instinctually talented actor.

'I no longer believe the words that you can love without anything else.'

Sook-hyun_a part time cashier at a discount retail mart, a realist with a calm exterior

Sook-hyun in the words of Son Tae-young

A woman who, tired of being poor, gives up on love. She decides to break up for realistic reasons, but because she still loves him, it is difficult for her to do it. Repeating the same work day after day in a retail mart, she loses sight of the future and hits a brick wall. Although on the surface she seems cold to Ha-seok, who is trying everything to win her back, but inside I think she is hurting a lot.

A beautiful woman with an innocent and quiet sadness

Son Tae-young in the words of Cha Tae-hyun

Although our paths had crossed briefly earlier, Sad Movie was the first time we worked together. Luckily the slight feeling of distance actually helped in acting the part of separating lovers. Tae-young is a genuinely nice person. She listens to other people extremely well, and so she watched over me while acting and made me feel comfortable. It's a shame that we only had a short time to work together.

2005 short film <Hearing a Memory> / 2004 <Ghost House> / 2003 KBS series <Shameful Rose> / 2002 MBC drama <Remember> / 2001 KBS drama <Purity>

'I'm the world's busiest mother, so to my son I'm a bad mother.'

Ju-young_ An interior designer renowned for her abilities. A busy mother who has never once been able to volunteer directing traffic in front of the school.

Ju-young in the words of Yeom Jung-ah

A mother who always feels guilty towards her son because of her busy schedule. Because I've never been married or had a son, I had to act by using my imagination. Although I talked to some people I know, before shooting I was really at a loss. But ultimately when we started shooting, it was easy to become absorbed in the role. This story of a mother and son who can't humanly help but to part really touched my heart. Though it was me acting, I felt that the separation between Ju-young and Hwi-chan was the saddest moment in the film.

An actress who emanates charisma with her mature acting skills and strong concentration.

Yeom Jung-ah in the words of Yeo Jin-gu

I called her Mom on the set, and it was really nice to have such a pretty mother with big eyes. When she acted like she was sick, I became worried because it really did seem like she was sick, and when she acted angry at me I was so scared that I almost cried. Having two mothers as we shot the film was both good and bad at the same time.

2005 <A Boy Goes to Heaven> in production / 2004 <Lovely Rivals> / 2004 <The Big Swindle> / 2004 MBC drama <Tell Me You Love Me> / 2003 <A Tale of Two Sisters> / 2003 SBS drama <Lover> / 2002 <H> / 2001 KBS drama <Purity> / 2000 KBS drama <Wang Gun> / 1999 <Tell Me Something> / 1997 SBS drama <Model> / 1996 <The Terrorist> / 1992 <Jazz Bar Hiroshima> …/ 1991 MBC drama <Our Heaven>

'I know that it's bad to lie. But it's worse that Mom is never home.'

Hwi-chan_ A second-year elementary school student. A boy who does well on his own, but who keeps getting angry when his mother isn't around.

Hwi-chan in the words of Yeo Jin-gu

Jin-gu is a first-year elementary school student who always gets angry. His mother never comes to get him even when it rains, and at home he eats meals alone. That's probably why he has a bad temper. In the film he keeps a picture diary where he lies that his mother does bad things. Later he gets along better with his mother and he starts to behave, but he is forced to separate from her. Since I needed to look sad and cry for my acting, I thought of many sad thoughts. When I thought of separating from my mother, the tears came out by themselves. If I had to do that, it really would be sad. I feel sorry for Hwi-chan.

A child actor chosen in an audition of 150 applicants, who can hold his own among a cast of Korea's top stars.

Yeo Jin-gu in the words of Yeom Jung-ah

After he was chosen in auditions from such a huge pool of applicants, I was curious about what kind of boy he would be. When I first met him, he really did seem to be the innocent Hwi-chan from the film. I worried at first because he had no acting experience, but Jin-gu's purity turned out to be his greatest weapon. As time passed his honest portrayal of innocence became deeper and more natural. We only spent a short time together, but thanks to Jin-gu's innocence I was quickly drawn to him.

'Could he really feel my gestures in his heart?'

Su-eun_ A participant in a parade in an amusement park, a deaf woman with a bright and cheerful personality.

Su-eun in the words of Shin Min-ah

Su-eun is a deaf woman who carries a palm-sized burn on her face, but contrary to expectations she is a bright and cheerful girl. Actually it seems that she purposefully tries to act more cheerful in order to hide her wound. She works in an amusement park, wearing a doll costume that hides the burn on her face and her disability, and spends happy times there. So as I acted out the role of Su-eun experiencing her first love with Sang-gyu, I felt even more brokenhearted.

With the fresh feeling of first love, an actress who projects shining potential.

Shin Min-ah in the words of Lee Ki-woo

I think that Min-ah is somewhat similar to the character of Su-eun that appears in the film. She shares the tendency not to talk a lot, there is a lot about her that is unknowable, and she perfectly fits the image of someone in love for the first time. In her pretty smile there is a purity but also a vulnerability and a determination to face the world cheerfully that seems similar to Su-eun.

2005 <Beast and the Beauty> in production / 2005 <A Bittersweet Life> / 2004 SBS drama <Punch> / 2003 <Madeleine> / 2001 <Volcano High> / 2001 SBS drama <Beautiful Days>

'When will I be able to draw her face?'

Sang-gyu_ A street artist who draws portraits in an amusement park, a cute, pure youth

Sang-gyu in the words of Lee Ki-woo

An art student who paints portraits in an amusement park for older children. Like me, he's an ordinary character who likes to fool around but who also has an innocent side to his personality. As he slowly becomes enamored of Su-eun he starts to want to know how she really looks, but he keeps coming up against a wall and is not able to see her face. Even faced with constant failure, he keeps trying to approach her with a trembling heart, so I wanted to express Sang-gyu's purity and his feelings of first love.

A newcomer who displays the pure image of a young boy, and a serious passion for acting.

Lee Ki-woo in the words of Shin Min-ah

I think he's an actor who can take on a wide variety of appearances. He's tall, with a youngish face, and looks like he just appeared out of a comic book, and I think he fits the image of Sang-gyu perfectly. Since our two characters don't have direct conversations and express much of what they say visually, it was especially important for us to cooperate well. With both of us a similar age and having quiet personalities, we were able to act together quite comfortably.

Hot Issues

The most beautiful screenplay of 2005, that captured the heart of all Korea's top stars

The biggest inducement to bring all of the top stars of the screen and TV to appear in one film was Sad Movie's warm and beautiful screenplay. Jung Woo-sung was so taken by the screenplay that he not only agreed to appear in it despite already being cast in another film, but he persuaded fellow actor Cha Tae-hyun to appear in the role of Ha-seok. Actress Yeom Jung-ah, who is famous for never taking on two roles at the same time, initially turned down the role but after reading the screenplay, she made a special request to the producer to appear in this film as soon as shooting on her other film was finished. The other actors too, despite their busy schedules, expressed their wish to appear in the film, resulting in an unprecedented casting of big-name stars.

Diverse and meaningful challenges for the actors

Jung Woo-sung, who enrolled in special training at the 'Joongang 119 Relief Squad' to prepare for his role as a firefighter, where he shoots impressive scenes of fighting fires; Im Soo-jung, who received intensive private lessons in sign language before the opening of shooting; Shin Min-ah, wearing a doll costume in the searing heat, and having to learn sign language; Lee Ki-woo, who took painting lessons to perfect his role as a street artist... All of these actors in Sad Movie overcame various challenges to make for a more complete film.

Child actor Yeo Jin-gu, who overcame a 150:1 competition and who fit in confidently with his famous co-stars

Without the slightest bit of acting experience, 2nd-year elementary school student Yeo Jin-gu took part almost by chance in auditions, and wowed the director with his combination of pure innocence and mischievousness. Called "a kid with 100% potential" by the director, he overcame a 150:1 competition and fit in confidently with the other actors in Sad Movie. In contrast to their worries, Yeo Jin-gu displayed mature and emotional acting abilities that surprised the production team. This boy, who says he aspires to become a "cool-looking actor like Jung Woo-sung", is worth looking forward to for his cute mischievous image and his heartwarming tears.

Sad Movie's ninth character, the original soundtrack made by Jo Dong-ik, Jang Pil-soon, and Cha Tae-hyun

Another character of Sad Movie that expresses beautiful and sad emotions is none other than the music. Music director Jo Dong-ik, who can touch the deepest parts of one's heart with his soft music, teamed up with singer Jang Pil-soon to create sad, emotional music that only add to the film's beautiful images. In addition, actor Cha Tae-hyun who is also known as a singer lent his efforts to the original soundtrack to go with his restrained and heartfelt acting.

A polished, refined image heightened by a wide 2.35:1 aspect ratio and Digital Intermediate processing

The emotions of Sad Movie are not only expressed by the actors. Believing that a backdrop and setting can contribute as much to the emotions of a film as the acting, the production team chose a high quality 2.35:1 aspect ratio and made every effort to fill the entire screen with sentiment. Following his quick debut with The Aggressives in which he won notice for his stylish visuals, cinematographer Kim Byung-seo joined up with lighting director Shin Sang-yeol of A Bittersweet Life to create the refined visuals of Sad Movie. In addition, despite the extra time required in post production, Digital Intermediate processing was carried out so that viewers would experience the most beautiful and memorable images possible.

Director_Kwon Jong-kwan

"A truth-filled story about warm and cheerful people experiencing separation...

I want to tell the story with straightforwardness and simplicity, just like the title Sad Movie."

Director Kwon Jong-kwan, who drew international attention for his short films 28th October, 1979, a Sunny Sunday (1999) and Uncle Bar at the Barbershop (2000), won over the warm affection of viewers in fall 2004 with the distinctive romantic comedy S-Diary, about a hero who comes of age through experiencing love and memories. With Sad Movie, he will once again make use of his fine-tuned directing skills to tell a warm and light-hearted story about breaking up, infused with authenticity of character.
