ENA's new Monday-Tuesday drama 「Salon de Holmes」 raised expectations for the work through a production presentation ahead of its first broadcast on the 16th.
At the Stanford Hotel in Sangam-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul, actors Lee Si-young, Jung Young-joo, Kim Dasom, Nam Ki-ae, and director Min Jin-ki attended the event to talk about various works.
`Salon de Holmes' is a comic-womance play in which strong women, such as former detectives, insurance kings, part-time workers, and supermarket presidents, join a team to solve cases in the apartment against the backdrop of the Kwangju Gong Apartment.
Director Jaring Seo Min Jin-ki "About 11.2 million households live in apartments out of the total population"The concept of housewives becoming detectives in that space and punishing everyday villains is very sympathetic and attractive."
Lee Si-young plays Bong Mi-ri, a curious housewife who succeeded in entering the apartment after successfully buying her own house in the play. He liked sports and did a lot of active things, so he had an image limited to characters like prosecutors and detectives, but he personally liked comics"Thank you for greeting you with a bright and fun drama after a long time." In particular, he expressed his affection for the character Gong Mi-ri, saying, `They have similar positives, but I felt cathartic because I was passive.'
Jung Young-joo, a former homicide detective, played the role of Choo Kyung-ja, who wiped out the neighborhood villain, saying, "The title of Ma Dong-seok was burdensome, but the role that I actually wanted." He wanted to show powerful and exhilarating action. I hope it will set an example for female actors who want to challenge the action genre." In response, Lee Si-young drew laughter by saying, `It's a title I wanted too, but my sister was so good.' `I really acknowledged it in the scene where I lift the car during filming.'
Kim Da-som plays Park So-hee, the king of part-time jobs, who works four to five part-time jobs a day. He is a single mother in her 20s who lives hard for her son, and this setting touched my heart a lot"It will serve as an opportunity to broaden the acting spectrum through strong gods and emotional acting. "
In this regard, director Min Jin-ki "Since the audition, I have had a high understanding of the character and many scenes of riding motorcycles, so I immediately started practicing."I gave him a high evaluation.
Nam Ki-ae appears as Jeon Ji-hyun, the president of a supermarket in an apartment. He said "A small supermarket needs a role to play in order to survive"As the oldest sister, she is a character who goes out of everything." He then expressed satisfaction with the teamwork, saying, "The chemistry was so good at the filming site, and the atmosphere was bright because actor Lee Si-young took the center stage well."
Director Min Jin-ki commented on the directing points, "'Sinbyung' is a structure in which various characters play against a specific background in a specific space, just like the series 'Sinbyung'" Salon de Holmes is more dramatic and has a combination of suspense, thriller and comic elements. From supporting roles to minor roles, he explained. We also hope that this drama will contribute to the revitalization of the warm-mans genre. I hope that the number of dramas centered on female protagonists will increase further."
Meanwhile 'Salon de Holmes' will premiere at 10 p.m. on ENA.
