[My Daily = Reporter Noh Han-bin] Actor Lee Dong-wook chose being able to see his own face for a long time as a point of watching the movie Single in Seoul.

On the 21st, I met Lee Dong-wook, the protagonist of the movie “Single in Seoul,” at a cafe in Samcheong-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul.

‘Single in Seoul’ is a well-made realistic relatable story about power influencer Young-ho (Lee Dong-wook), who likes to be alone, and publisher editor-in-chief Hyun-jin (Lim Soo-jeong), who hates being alone, as they create a book about single life. It’s romance.

Lee Dong-wook played the role of Park Young-ho, a star essayist who dreams of becoming a writer. Yeong-ho, who enjoys spending time alone and is an admirer of singles, receives a publishing offer as the author of the Seoul edition of the book ‘Single in the City’.

Lee Dong-wook, who played Yeong-ho, naturally performed an act that stuck to reality. He naturally portrayed the clumsy side of love, the comical side of a star instructor, and the image of a single person enjoying life alone, giving empathy and laughter. He also created a romantic excitement with Lim Soo-jung, from the perfect visual harmony to the humorous Tiki Taka and excellent acting chemistry.

On this day, Lee Dong-wook said ‘Single in Seoul’ When asked how it was after checking the finished version, he said, “I felt good seeing my face on the big screen for the first time in a long time.”He added, “I saw it for the first time at the distribution preview, and I was very embarrassed. I’m not as good at monitoring as others. “I don’t monitor with my family, but when I watched it with so many people in the theater, I couldn’t concentrate,” he said.

“But I watched it thinking I could sympathize with it because it made me laugh a lot at points I didn’t expect. There aren’t many devices to make you laugh out loud, but I liked that because you laughed a lot at small lines and reactions.”

Also ’Single in Seoul’ Regarding the point of watching, he said, “It is a movie that will allow me to see myself on the big screen for a long time, and it is also a work that allows me to see the acting chemistry and romantic acting with actor Lim Soo-jung.”) He explained, “I hope people who want to continue to feel that feeling will see it.”

He then said, “The most important thing is that it is a movie that goes well with this season,” and that “you can watch it comfortably for about an hour and a half,” raising expectations for “Single in Seoul.”

Lee Dong-wook said, “‘Single in Seoul’ “Before I did it, I was a little tired of focusing on fantasy, action, and thrillers,” he said. “I wanted to play a normal person.” He said, “I wanted to play a human-like role, something that resonates with reality,”and said, “I wanted to play a role that resonated with reality.”

“Youngho’s narration lines, which may be excessive, were fun. Actress Im Soo-jung is also said to be joining, ‘Let’s do some romance after a long time’ So I decided to do it.”

Lee Dong-wook said, “It’s been a while since I did it, and I felt comfortable.” Lee Dong-wook said, “I actually gained a little weight while flying around on wires and doing action scenes for hours because there was nothing like that.” There are things you can do a little more comfortably because you don’t have to persuade them about your world view. But on the other hand, I felt a little bored later,” he said.

In addition, “If I do this, I want to do that, and if I do that, I want to do this.”‘Single in Seoul’ I can’t resist next time ‘Tale of the Nine-Tailed Fox 1938’ “I went and flew around,” he confessed with a smile.

In response to actor Lim Soo-jung’s earlier diagnosis that “(both Lee Dong-wook and Lim Soo-jung’s) love cells are dead,”Lee Dong-wook asked, “What should I do?””I’ve become so comfortable being alone,” he confessed, causing laughter.

“I’m used to it, but what happens? Isn’t it right? It’s good to be overconfident, but where can you be? “When I spend time alone, I lie down very actively.”

When asked which of Youngho’s lines in praise of singles resonated with him, he said, “It’s not so much that I empathize with it, but it’s gone too far, isn’t it?”and, “I’m not like that, I’m always waiting with an open mind, so I think it’s more of a point of small laughter than empathy.”;Go talked.

The good thing about being single is, “I’m not restricted by anyone,” he said. “My meal times are very irregular.” Eat at times when others don’t eat. It’s an irregular pattern, like eating lunch at 3pm and dinner at 9pm, so you have to have someone to eat with you, which makes both of you uncomfortable. “I feel more comfortable living alone because of that,” he said.

However, “I am not a non-marriage person,” he said. “I always have the thought of wanting to get married rather than dreaming about it.” “I also think it would be nice to have a baby,” he said.

Also, my sister-in-law greeted me warmly, saying, “I went to the director’s house late at night,”and I was envious because I felt like their conversations were always sweet. ‘I will feel very comfortable’, ‘I will feel mentally stable’ “I wanted to,” he said, revealing his envious feelings.

When I asked Lee Dong-wook what kind of year this year was, he said, “The Tale of the Nine-Tailed Fox” finished filming last year, so this year, “Killers’ Shopping Mall” will be released on Disney in January next year. Filmed. I think life is a repetition of filming every year, making it public, promoting it, and filming it. That’s how it goes. “It’s meaningful and nice to be able to release two episodes this year,” he said.

“‘Single in Seoul’ I like it because it’s a movie that can be seen on screen for a long time after a long time. As with the Ukdong pop-up, I spent this year receiving a lot of love. I think it was a year with more happy and joyful times than difficult and tiring times. Fans also say, “I hope there will be only happy things next year.”

Meanwhile, ‘Single in Seoul’ will be released in theaters nationwide on the 29th.
