Kim Eui-sung met with Sports Chosun at a cafe in Samcheong-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul on the 28th and said, `Surgery is a big thing, but it's okay as long as we're alive."," he said.
Released on April 2nd, 'Lobby' tells the story of Changwook (Jungwoo Ha), the CEO of a startup who only knew about research, starting his first lobbying golf to win a national project worth 4 trillion won. Jungwoo Ha took the megaphone as a director following 'Rollercoaster' and 'Heo Samgwan'. Kim Eui-sung played Choi, a veteran civil servant.
Kim Eui-sung was reunited with Jungwoo Ha in the films 'Arms', '1987' and 'Robbie'. On his work with Ha Jung-woo, he said, `There is actually not much difference between the director Jungwoo Ha and the actor Jungwoo Ha. When acting and directing, he has the characteristic of being bold and quick without worrying about trivial things. He doesn't get very surprised or worried about most things."
"In fact, director Jungwoo Ha's humor code is too high-code for me. It's funny, but at the same time, will it be '?' That's what I thought. I understand, but there was a bit of a hustle"First of all, I wanted to talk to director Jungwoo Ha, and I wanted to help him if it helped because I had a good relationship with my junior Jungwoo Ha. As I read the script several times, my affection for the movie grew more and more. Also, when I was preparing, I tried not to think that this movie was a movie of Jungwoo Ha as much as possible. I acted seriously according to the character's situation," he said.
Previously, Jungwoo Ha underwent emergency surgery for acute appendicitis. In response, Kim Eui-sung said "We just need to be alive." The surgery is a big deal, but I tried to keep the atmosphere as bright as possible. I asked how the surgery was going in the group chat, and they said it was a secret (laughs). He told me to have hemorrhoids while I was getting it"I shuddered. Then "The Korean movie market is struggling these days, and it was so affectionate and precious to meet the audience with a movie that I haven't appeared in in a long time. The actors are all promoting hard. Jungwoo Ha is also regretting that he could not attend the press preview and GV (conversation with audience) after undergoing surgery. He wants to run out of the hospital and meet with the audience, and he wants to actively promote it."
