Apr 01, 2025

Actors Gong Myung and Kim Min-ha present a fresh youth romance through 'A week before I die'.

The production presentation of the original TVing series 'One Week Before I Die' was held at CGV Yongsan I'Park Mall in Ichon-dong, Yongsan-gu, Seoul on the 1st. Actors Gong Myung, Kim Min-ha, Jung Geon-ju, Ouri and Kim Hye-young attended the scene.

『A Week Before I Die』 (scripted by Song Hyun-joo Jang In-jeong, director Kim Hye-young and Choi Ha-na), which will be released for the first time on April 3, is a youth fantasy romance that takes place when the first love Ram-woo becomes the Grim Reaper in front of Hee-wan, who has been passing away his youth with his back to the world. It was officially invited to the 29th Busan International Film Festival 'On Screen' held last year, drawing attention even before its release.

Gong Myung played Ramu, his first love who returned as the Grim Reaper. As for how he came to join the work, he said "I've wanted to do it since I first read the script. As the director said, there was a mournful and lyrical atmosphere in the freshness. "(The script) made my heart soft."," he said.

Gong Myung, who met with viewers four years after being discharged from the military, said, `I'm so proud of this place now. As soon as I heard the number four years, I was surprised, and I said, "That's how meaningful a work is. The mere fact that I can return to drama after four years gives me a good feeling of excitement."

Previously, Lee Dong-wook, the Jungwoo Ha of the movie `Along with the Gods' series, played the role of the Grim Reaper with his outstanding acting skills. Gong Myung prepared this by referring to the character of the Grim Reaper, which many seniors have done so far"But still "Ramwoo tried to find the character while studying the script because it is different from the Grim Reaper that many people saw."

Kim Min-ha, who plays Hee-wan, an insider who transformed the quiet Ramwoo, said "This work is a story I've wanted to tell for a long time."It was nice to meet this script in the story of longing, the meaning of people left behind, and the process of living with guilt."

When asked if he felt pressured about his teenage role, he said "People around me told me to try it on quickly when I could wear a school uniform. I was hesitant at first, but when I tried it on and went back to high school, I felt young throughout the filming period," he replied with a smile.

Also, for the modifier 'First Love Icon', I want to be 'First Love Icon' rather than 'First Love Icon'. Even in the work, Hee-wan wrote a letter to Lam-woo and said, "I like it so much. I don't think there's anyone else in the work yet, so I'll go to the 'Jjak-love icon'."

Jeong Geon-ju appears as Hong Seok, a swimming prodigy who was famous for seals in middle school and Ramwoo's only board game partner. He said "I wanted to wear a school uniform, and I liked the lyrical feeling unique to this work"As if Hong Seok went to play with the ball during lunch, it looked a lot like my real self. And my close friend is similar to Ramwoo's personality, so I miss him a lot."

Ouri is Hee-wan's tteokbokki mate and played Tae-kyung, who is always and anywhere. He said of his work, "It's full of fresh and lovely" and `I thought I could read the script and work happily. He was so attractive that I wanted to keep him as a friend and love him as much as I could" expressed affection.

As for the similarity between himself and the character, "I was also a student who trudged around wearing only one gym uniform in my class. Tae-kyung and I seem to have similar personalities and styles of wearing comfortable clothes.

Lastly, Gong Myung and Kim Min-ha cited each other's chemistry as the highlight of their work. Kim Min-ha said "Breathing with Gong Myung was so comfortable. Even when I was filming a scene in the past, even if I didn't try hard to fit the situation at that time, I was naturally immersed in it. He expressed satisfaction, saying, `I only have fun and good memories.' Resonance is also "Same to me. Whenever I go anywhere 'Kim Min-ha is the best when I see this work. He says, "So cute and lovely". "I could concentrate just by looking at his eyes on the scene," he replied.

In addition, attention is focused on the chemistry of the four young actors. Director Kim thought "As I was doing this work, 'I'm very blessed as an actor. Although the four actors did well in their characters, I could feel their love for the work even in the scene where they did not appear. Also, it's not because you're good, but you always give the other actor's credit first. These friends are so cool, and on the contrary, I felt that I had a lot to learn from them."

Meanwhile, the 1st and 2nd episodes of 'A week before I die' will be released on April 3 at Tving.
