On the afternoon of the 8th, an online production presentation was held on TVing and Naver TV for tvN's new Monday-Tuesday drama 『New President Project" (played by Ban Ki-ri, directed by Shin Kyung-soo). The production presentation was attended by Han Suk-kyu, who runs to wherever there is a dispute, Bae Hyun-sung, who became a chicken restaurant paratrooper overnight from a new judge, Lee, an MZ delivery man who has a pungent charm like seasoned chicken, and producer Shin Kyung-soo.
'New president Project' is a drama about a god of negotiation who returns as a god of chicken and saves citizens in crisis in an era of communication. President Shin, who was a legendary negotiator in the past but has a mysterious secret as the owner of a chicken restaurant, advocates a cider-class dispute-solving hero drama that solves cases and embodies justice by crossing expediency and compliance.
In particular, the 「New President Project" drew attention as the first tvN work in 34 years since Han Seok-kyu, who does not need a modifier, became the first TVN work in 34 years. Han Suk-kyu, who plays Shin, a negotiating master with a cheerful personality and seasoned speech skills, will add a new life character as a small citizen hero with a variety of charms that go between charisma, humor and warm humanity. This is why Han Seok-kyu, a negotiating hero who will dominate the negotiation table with his spicy words like seasoned chicken and present a greater savory taste than fried chicken, is expected to transform. In addition, young actors Bae Hyun-sung and Lee Se-re are expected to lead tvN's Monday-Tuesday drama by showing Cha Jin chemistry with Han Suk-kyu.

While doing this work, he had to do a good job of cleaning the chicken. Chicken is very common now, but when I was young, chicken was precious. At the market, my mother selected raw chicken and the owner of the chicken restaurant groomed the chicken. Just in time, I can cook a little bit. I was the youngest in the family, so I helped my mother and cut her. So there was no difficulty in doing the news project. If possible, I imitated him. "When I think of my character, I can fix people and have been a king. This time, we're going to settle disputes. There is a Chuncheon dakgalbi restaurant that I often go to, and the boss saw me grilling dakgalbi and said, "I can get a job."
As for the success rate of negotiations in reality, Han Suk-kyu "Mainly decides on the menu of meals. I used to eat anything well, but I can only eat Korean food these days. Even I think it's a mess. Our scene is young. There are so many young staff in their 20s, and I always insist on Korean food at mealtime. Young friends like the snack that I liked when I was young. That's why negotiations always fail. Later, he says, "Eat on your own." I think eating is important. Come to think of it, I think I only ate Korean food with the actors I was with before filming. He confessed, "I'm sorry." Bae Hyun-sung made Lee-re laugh
Han Seok-kyu, who made hits in succession from SBS drama "Romantic Doctor Kim Sa-bu" series to MBC drama "This intimate traitor," said "I'm already burdened. I think I'm making a lot of memories with the viewers. I really think I was lucky a lot. He always welcomes and encourages me. This 'New President Project' would like to convey our feelings living in the present, our consideration for others, and the relaxed mind of communicating and sharing each other's feelings and living a little bit at a loss. I hope that viewers will sympathize a lot with this work. I hope it will be a drama that will meet the present, the future, and the next generation."

"In fact, I started working quickly, so I have a point similar to the character Yi Si-on. I think it looks a lot like me when I help President Shin to conduct intelligence warfare. "I got my license for the first time this year. That's why I couldn't ride a motorcycle, but I had to deliver it in this work, so I started practicing driving a motorcycle."

He said "Acting doesn't work just with techniques. It's inevitable that I'm included. The relationship between the three of us acting together in the lead role is bound to be captured in the drama. So I read a lot before filming and worked on presenting opinions to each other. Of course, there are times when we can't have such a time, but this work was available for schedule. So, two months ago, I worked on reading, analyzing the script, and sharing my thoughts twice a week. Although I only fed my juniors Korean food, I really liked the memory of such work.
Bae Hyun-seong was so happy to breathe with Han Seok-gyu. I really wanted to meet Han Seok-gyu while watching his work, but I was happy to meet him through this work", I was very nervous because he was so senior. In fact, I had to act in a friendly way, so I had a meeting so that I could talk comfortably even before filming. He always asked me about my favorite songs and meals, making me comfortable. What a senior. There was such a moment. It's a secret, but I feel like I'm actually my dad in the field. When I see Han Seok-gyu, I want to be childish. There were many moments when I leaned and relied on like my father. In the next work, I want to work with a father and a 父女" he expressed his affection.

In response, Han Seok-gyu also "Is there anything else you did other than expressing good?" Fourteen years ago, I filmed a famous scene with producer Shin in 'Deep Root Tree'. It was a very tight time, but I was impressed that I focused that time to create a famous scene. Producer Shin, who I thought, thinks about what he wants to say through his work. Consistently, he constantly asks himself questions about 'Why am I directing?' and produces the result. I want to support you as a colleague. It was so nice to meet you this time", he said of his trust.
Lastly, Han Seok-gyu said "It seems that emotions are more important to humans than reason. I think it's really important how I control the emotions I feel and how I live my life sharing them with other people's emotions. Our current society seems to have lost communication with other people's emotions as a result of more extreme consequences. What I want to talk about is the subject of 'New President Project'. I hope viewers will think about this work at least once."
