'Ama' depicts the bare face of the movie industry, which is hidden by the colorful spotlight, set in Chungmuro in the 1980s. It depicts the conflict and solidarity experienced by Hee-ran (Lee Ha-nee), a top star of the time, and Joo-ae (Bang Hyo-rin), a rookie selected through an audition, in the process of making a film called 「Ama Ma'am」. It is also the first series directed by director Lee Hae-young after 'Dokjeon'Ghost'.
Bang Hyo-rin, who met Sports Chosun at a cafe in Jongno-gu, Seoul on the 27th, laughed, saying, `When the title was 'Ama', my family asked 'Isn't she the wife?' and thought it was about a car.' Then "I was also curious when I first heard that it was about the wife, but I didn't have any particular resistance. Rather, what kind of story would it contain??C," he revealed his honest intentions.
As I did not experience the 1980s firsthand, studying the background of the times was also essential. Bang Hyo-rin "I like watching old movies, so I read a lot of references. In particular, I've seen 'Madam' before, but this time I've looked for the first movie again" It was much less stimulating than I thought, and there were many interesting parts. I enjoyed it refreshingly"He confessed.
As a rookie, he also took on the burden of carrying the symbolic title of 'Ama' with the heart of accepting new opportunities rather than burdens. There was more to learn from the times and characters."
Meanwhile, 'Ama' was released to more than 190 countries around the world on Netflix on the 22nd.
