Actor Lee Ha-nee (42) expressed her affection for Ama.

Lee Ha-nee recently met through Sports Chosun and online for a video interview for the original Netflix series 'Ama' (played by Lee Hae-young, directed by Lee Hae-young). Lee Ha-nee said, "I've seen a lot of works and interviews in the 1980s, and the director is very meticulous. So I think I discussed a lot with the director about how much I would melt my accent and Seoul dialect. I actually live as an actress, but I don't usually live like that, but I think Hee-ran is a person with an attitude of being an actress and lives normally. I think in the 80s, I tried to save nostalgia as a result of a slightly exaggerated interview tone and acting tone."

Lee Ha-nee then said, `I was born in the 1980s with 'Crying', so I've never actually seen 'Ama'. I saw 'Ama' for the first time as an adult, and I thought it would be very high, but it was high in some parts and different in some parts. I remember having fun while looking for it and preparing for the work."




Lee Ha-nee said, "All works are affectionate, but I thought that works like 'Ama' were meaningful and precious in themselves that 'Ama' would come out in 2025. As an actress living in 2025, the real world has changed a lot, and it seems that we are a little minority, and we are glad that things that are considered unfair are now a world where we can speak up and talk about them, and that we wanted to celebrate that such a work is coming to the world both as a human and an actor. While acting, I am curious and excited about how global viewers will see Chungmuro in the 1980s."

Lee Ha-nee continued "I didn't even watch the movie I knew when the director said 'Ama' at first, but I'll take a look at the symbolic things. If you give me the script, I'll look at it. I said that. I'll do it' I couldn't say this, and I said I would read it hard, and I read the script, but it was so fun for now. I actually think I'm the one whose fun is important. When I look at the script, there's a script that flips over and 'What did it say in front of it?There is a script that goes back to saying, "How did Emma think of releasing 25 years of Emma as a remake?" I think I watched it while thinking that it was really brilliant. You're a good writer as well. I think I saw the script while doing it. However, it seems that I was able to do it because I was not focused on stimulating things. Rather, there's a bed scene, but it's the first time I've ever seen such a bold bed scene? I think I did a bold bed scene in my own way, but being able to do that would have been too inconvenient if I had used women for real consumption, and if I had used the bed scene like Koo Joong-ho's previous use. Even if it's the same scene, it really depends on what kind of angle and metaphor you see it in. Since it's a movie, it's really healthy and harmless? I think that's why I can act more boldly and be more free, and talk about sex a little more comfortably, healthily and casually."

Lee Ha-nui is also a local location, but it seems that the point through which the mother passes. Stories of people struggling anywhere. Whether it's a small story or a big story, it's constantly happening everywhere, and people said that it's a new world in the 80s, and people just had the Olympics and a new world opened, but there seems to be a thing everywhere that we still have to live the world, we have to be beepy and we have to be hurt. The world is getting better, but it's hard for a human to take the absurdity and wrongs to the next level for a better world without just being silent and ending them on the extension. So I think there's also an element like Emma's fantasy. What if someone had made this choice and made such a bold move. A few years ago, a lot of Me Too incidents and various incidents occurred, and as the cultural and social systems have changed, the hours of staff working are also being realized, which could not have been imagined 10 years ago, so someone should speak courageously. Those things seem to exist. I think viewers will sympathize and like it if our struggling history and the things that are still connected are penetrating the points that are local.

The relationship between Joo-ae and joy is the main narrative of 'Ama'. Lee Ha-nee said that she paid attention to Jung Hee-ran's growth points, and "Hee-ran was surprised when she encountered Joo-ae at the beginning of the fourth part, and it seems to be regrettable that she was used to it even though she experienced unfair things." Even if you are unjust, if you are forced culturally within the system and continue to be embedded like a callus, it seems that you can't do it even if you want to say it's unfair someday, but it seems that it was the same for joy. "In some parts, if you can compromise, and if you're silent because of the things you really want to protect because you don't want to lose, didn't you make a decision to do what you can do today from that point? I think things like Joanna Mina, structure and production company, and Emma's camera are a turning point in the growth period for Hee-ran as well."

In addition, Lee Ha-nee said, "It seems that Hee-ran has not been disturbed at all, and a new person named Joo-ae becomes a stimulation point for Hee-ran and creates a contact point with Joo-ae through a series of events. As a human being who lives in that era looking at Joo-ae for the part similar to me and the part I first acted in, as a female actor, I feel homogeneity and compassion for such things, and I stand in solidarity. In fact, someone told me that the world would rise by 1 degree even if women were not hostile and united. I really felt that kind of feeling on the spot. (Bang) Hyorin, you're gradually opening your heart and breathing together. 'Oh, you're really serious about acting. You want to be good at acting, too. When I felt that he was really sincere, I also exchanged the feeling that he and I were united with Hyorin and acted. So, when I acted, I gave him a hug after the god ended, and it became so natural that I think it was a scene where solidarity gradually deepened after working for months."

"'Ama' is a Netflix series about a top star 'Juran' and a new actor 'Juae', who bravely confront the dark reality hidden in the colorful spotlight during the birth of the Ero movie that hit Korea in the 1980s. Lee Ha-nee played top star Jung Hee-ran in the play, sending a message to the world, giving viewers a deep resonance.
