She cries when she sees her mother-in-law..Director Lee Jung-rim created the heart that you killed (comprehensive)



Director Lee Jung-rim completed 'You killed' with a heavy heart.

Netflix's original series 'You Killed' (played by Kim Hyo-jung, directed by Lee Jung-rim) is a series about two women who decide to kill in the face of reality that they cannot escape unless they die or kill. Director Lee Jung-rim, who directed dramas 'evil' and 'VIP', directed the movie, and Jeon Son-i and Lee Yoo-mi played Cho Eun-soo and Cho Hee-soo, respectively, depicting the stories of the main characters who save each other against violence. Jang Seung-jo has the same face as Hee-soo's husband Noh Jin-pyo, but he played two roles, including Janggang, who is completely contrasted, and Lee played Jin So-baek watching Eun-soo and Hee-soo.

Coach Lee Jung-rim recently met with Sports Chosun and said, `Yesterday, my mother-in-law called me crying after watching all eight episodes. After watching it until the 8th inning, Eun-soo (Jeon Son-ni) and Hee-soo (Lee Yoo-mi) made me cry and they said, `They're doing well.' On Saturday, I ate out with my mom and my daughter, and she suddenly tried to cry a little. She is a blunt Gyeongsang-do woman, and even my mother's generation in her 70s is not pleasant, but she seems to have been happy to think that it was a good drama to watch" expressed his feelings.




Director Lee then mentioned her husband's reaction and said, `As soon as the husband was released at 5 p.m., people around him 'Why does your wife always do this?He said '. I also made a piece of work that is 'In-laws', and since I'm an in-house couple, people around me say 'What is he doing to do that kind of work?' But my husband also said it was good because he had the courage to do a good work. In fact, I was taking a class related to domestic violence before making this work, and I had to get out of parenting because it was on a weekday evening, but my husband made me comfortable, saying, `I have to listen to it,' even though I had to finish it twice a week at 11 or 11 p.m," he said with a smile.

Director Lee Jung-rim listened to the stories of actual domestic violence victims to make 'You killed'. He thought that he should be really careful, thinking "Will people with trauma be able to see it?" Some survivors said they couldn't even leave the house. Everyone seemed to look at him even when he went outside, and he said it wasn't my fault, but his skin hurt just by blowing the wind. So, at the end, I decided to write a story that made me curious about the weather like Heesoo's narration. Hee-soo said, "Have you ever been curious about the weather, I've been through a time of pain, but now I can look out the window."

However, there was a part that was different from the original novel. While the novel depicts Eun-soo and Hee-soo leaving for a third country and completely moving away from sin, the play depicts them paying for their sins after turning themselves in. In response, director Lee said, "When I think of Eun-soo and Hee-soo, I think I'm going to turn myself in. I'll take my sins sweetly. It's up to them to admit it and how happy life will be next, but they're thinking about the god of the court to the writer. I said that I remembered Eun-soo and Hee-soo standing and talking calmly. The writer thinks about it, and I think it's necessary. "He thought that it seemed necessary for them to be more free from the murder and running, so that's where I thought I should go differently from the original. "Hee-soo told the court 'God doesn't come even if I call him, but the kicking was just around the corner."' says the word. I thought it would be nice to throw a message about the bystander and leave room for thought. I wanted domestic violence to be treated as a social issue" he said.




There was also a lot of feeling in the viewers' 'real reaction'. Finally, director Lee mentioned what he wanted to convey to the viewers and said, `I think it's important what I made it with. I think I should put it that way. During the national wealth festival, a real survivor came to the GV and asked questions. It's the first time I've been asked to cry a lot. If those people see it, I hope it will be a little comforting. And it is also the actors who talked a lot with real actors and bravely chose a subject that would be good for people to be interested in without being uncomfortable. Because you can't make a drama without actors. I hope our mindset works a little bit. I want to say that" thanked him.
