“I think this will fit.”
Director Bong Joon-ho’s ‘Deadman’ This is what I gave to director Ha Jun-won after reading the scenario. It took five years just to work on the scenario and cover the world of President Baji. ‘Deadman’, the result of director Ha Jun-won’s passionate reporting and hard work, visits audiences with actors Cho Jin-woong, Kim Hee-ae, and Lee Soo-kyung thanks to the support of director Bong Joon-ho.
On the morning of the 19th, the movie ‘Deadman’ was held at Megabox Seongsu in Seongdong-gu, Seoul. While the production briefing session was held, director Ha Jun-won, Cho Jin-woong, Kim Hee-ae, and Lee Soo-kyung were in attendance.
On this day, director Ha Jun-won said, “On the surface, it looks like a linear plot of a man going to find the real culprit to clear his name. If you look closely, it is a story about three characters running like cogs with one name and three goals according to their respective interests. When designing the scenario, if you think of it as an orchestra, Man-jae Lee was thought of as an instrument that leads the overall flow of the play, Mrs. Shim was considered the conductor who designs the entire performance, and Hee-joo Gong was considered the audience member looking at this incident objectively. “I composed a play,” he said, “Deadman.” The main point of directing was explained.

‘Deadman’ is a story about a so-called business ace who makes money by living up to his name, but after being falsely accused of embezzling 100 billion won and being forced to live as a dead person, he tracks down people with a single name to get back the life that was stolen from them. It is a work containing. The debut film of director Ha Jun-won, who co-wrote the screenplay for director Bong Joon-ho’s film ‘The Monster’, deals with the crimes of impersonation and ‘Baji Boss’ It has created a unique and fresh crime chase drama, with a story unfolding with twists and turns based on the world, and an army of colorful, intertwined characters.
Cho Jin-woong played the role of Lee Man-jae, a man who went from being the ace of the barge business world to being falsely accused and becoming a ‘deadman’. Kim Hee-ae exudes an irreplaceable presence as Ms. Shim, a top political consultant with a reputation for making her name known. Lee Soo-kyung pursues Lee Man-jae’s whereabouts and says, “Lee Man-jae is alive.”She plays the role of channel operator Gong Hee-joo.
Cho Jin-woong said, “I guess I’m a person who can’t live up to the name.” You can see what happens when you watch the movie. He introduced the role of Lee Man-jae, saying, “He is a person who sells and sells and even sells his name because life is difficult in this world.”
He continued, “At first, I felt it was a very well-made story. The director conducted thorough research for about 5 years to make this film. I thought that unraveling the thread of these tragic events would serve as a warning not to touch dark places. “I think it was a very attractive script because the director’s meticulousness was fully reflected,” he added.

Kim Hee-ae said about the role of Mrs. Shim, “It was a character that I had not heard about before. “She is the person who brings Lee Man-jae, who was falsely accused of embezzling 100 billion won, back to the world,” she said. “She was so attractive that it was probably a role that any actress would have coveted.” I heard that director Ha Jun-won co-wrote director Bong Joon-ho’s ‘Monster’ and we are friends, so I showed him the script. Mrs. Sim was discussing which actress she would like and said she couldn’t think of one. It was a mysterious and precious role for me. “She was so happy,” she said, showing off Ms. Sim’s charm.
Also, Kim Hee-ae said, “She has great power and money. So, I use my wealth to drag Lee Man-jae out to another world. “I think you will know whether I will be a villain or a big help to Lee Man-jae in the play,” he said. “Deadman” Viewing was encouraged.
Lee Soo-kyung said, “My father died unfairly because he was involved in the Lee Man-jae incident. He is the person who runs a YouTube channel that tracks Lee Man-jae to reveal the truth. She is a very hot and persistent woman. This character’s personality, which has focused only on that goal since her early and middle school years, changes little by little after meeting Lee Man-jae. “This part was also very attractive,” he said, introducing the role of Gong Hee-joo.

Cho Jin-woong also revealed his own main points. He said, “Situations change dramatically. When he builds a character, he doesn’t have a consistent through line, but he thought, “Let’s throw 100% into that situation,”and “Let’s expose it like it’s raw.”He said.
Then Kim Hee-ae said, “I’ve already done several works, but I’ve done “Deadman.”Lee Man-jae praised Cho Jin-woong’s charm, saying, “I think this is a role that shows Cho Jin-woong’s charm well.”He continued, “Mrs. Shim has such diverse charms that she needed to transform externally as well. The art, makeup, and hair teams asked, “How do I not look like Kim Hee-ae?” I was worried. It’s an exciting and fun task for her to learn to look as different as possible from the previous character. “So she was happy,” he added.
Director Ha Jun-won is director of ‘Deadman’ The birth story was also revealed. He said, “Aren’t people all born with a name and live with responsibility? In life, we come across many people who cannot take responsibility for their own names. When a problem occurs, I became aware of social issues as a director and writer after seeing many cases where the person responsible for the problem failed to take responsibility and took over in the name of an agent, so I thought I would tell it through a popular story. “Pants boss” is a very familiar word, but since it is a subject that has not been covered in movies, it seemed harmonious when combined with the topic “name,” he said. “Deadman” He shared the reason why he chose pants as his material.
In fact, director Ha Jun-won said ‘Deadman’ It took 5 years to prepare. He said, “It was quite difficult to cover the Baji CEO’s situation. There were no cases where their identities were exposed, and it was difficult to cover name transactions. I encountered a real-life crime incident that took place overseas, and it was dangerous reporting. As the reporting period became longer, it took 5 years. He said, “I tried to make a movie that you can enjoy with a large amount of material.”

Kim Hee-ae is ‘Deadman’ She recalled the moment she first encountered the scenario. He said, “I was so surprised when I first read the script. There were so many technical stories that it felt like watching a documentary. I was surprised to hear that the director personally visited and investigated difficult worlds. You will know when you see it. “As the world of fiction and reality crosses over, there are a lot of stories like what is real, what is drama, and 8 shades,” she said.
In particular, Kim Hee-ae plays ‘Deadman’ When asked which of the actors had the highest character synchronization, he said, “I want it to be me.”It’s greed. After laughing, “It’s my wish,” she added, “Girls’ Generation’s Choi Soo-young, who appears as a hipster in the play. “How did she sing and act so well? She was so chic that she fit the character perfectly, and she was so charming like the MZ generation these days,” she said, giving a thumbs up to Choi Sooyoung.
When asked if Cho Jin-woong originally knew about the world of the Baji boss, he said, “I didn’t know at all.” Seeing as the director said that the reporting itself was difficult, I think there must have been a world that wasn’t revealed. “There must have been wiser and more correct ways,” Baji CEO replied, “I think it was a vague word.”

Director Ha Jun-won previously revealed that there were dangerous times when covering the world of the Baji owner. When asked if there were any dangerous moments in this regard, he said, “When writing a crime movie, there are reporters and there are many cases where you can’t expose them if you go in depth. There is a burden in the process of even mentioning this story. “If I were to go into detail, I think it would be better to refrain from saying anything because they have their own position,” he said.
Additionally, director Ha Jun-won’s first directing film, ‘Deadman’ Regarding his future plans as a director, he said, “His first work will be a crime film, and he likes this genre of film. I think it is the virtue of a popular film director to make films that are popular and interesting, with a clear sense of subject matter and a message to the audience. He expressed his aspirations by saying, “I want to continue working on my works.”
Lastly, director Ha Jun-won said, “If you look at the script, he intuitively tells you, “This is a movie that will be included, and this is a movie that will not be included.” I tend to give a lot of advice on specific direction or casting for the script. “I remember giving him strength by saying, “I think Deadman” will be included,” he said, confessing the advice he received after showing the scenario to director Bong Joon-ho.
The movie ‘Deadman’ will be released on February 7th.
