Actor and director Kim Hee-won (53) expressed his feelings about trying to direct.

Director Kim Hee-won interviewed Disney+ original series ‘Light Shop’ (played by Kang Pul, directed by Kim Hee-won) at a cafe in Jongno-gu, Seoul on the morning of the 20th.

Director Kim Hee-won expressed his feelings about meeting with reporters as a director, saying, “(It’s different from when I was an actor). I think I have to be careful what I say. When I was an actor, I said ‘ I don’t know, but I really said it. He said, “If it’s bad, it’s bad, and if it’s good, it’s good, but now I feel pressured to say it’s good. “

Director Kim Hee-won recalled the time of filming “I noticed every day. I really looked at the actors a lot, I looked at the staff a lot, and I looked at the actors for six months. I noticed a lot Personally, this means that directors are wary of other directors to do it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it. , what are we going to do now? you do it, you don’t just wait for yourself What do I have to do to get that person to do something on their own?, and I noticed the situation, he said, drawing a laugh.

In “Moving” they met as actors and writers, but this time it’s Kang Pul and Kim Hee Won who became directors and writers. Director Kim Hee-won said, ‘When I met as an actor and played the role of Choi Il-hwan, what is it. I don’t like it. I say, ‘There has to be justification for acting, but I think it’s strange’. And then I changed it, and we talked about that a lot. But when we have a conversation with the director, what should we do to make it better. But there is something you really want to do as a writer. But there are times when it is different than I think. How do you make it pass well. And since I’m an actor, is it hard to act like that? How to change it this way and how to change it to fit the intent of the production. I think we’ve had a lot of those conversations.”

Director Kim Hee-won thought a lot about the process of accepting the offer as a director. When I first received the script, it was so difficult that many other directors could not choose. There were instances like that, and people who saw the script after I read it also said it was confusing, but I did too. The work now is much easier than the script. I thought about what to do with this difficult thing. If the line between life and death is a topic, people can come up with ‘This must be hard’ and not see it, and what if I fail for the first time as a work. People don’t see it. After thinking about it a lot, I also think I should talk about it these days. Most of them move on too quickly. I don’t think there has been this talk these days. No matter how many movies you watch. It would be fun to do things that others didn’t. So I said, “Yeah, let’s try it.”

Director Kim Hee-won said, ‘I think I’ve been thinking about it for about a month. I thought about it even after I said I would. Should I stop now? So I think it’s two or three months if you count it. At that time I was also preparing a short film, but I was completely ready to shoot it. I suddenly came in and thought more about it. I thought I should start with a short film and make this, but suddenly I got a big one. Can I do this? I’m worried about this, and I can film short films myself on my cell phone, but I can’t hide it if I don’t watch it much. I thought about my life. “Isn’t this going to change your life?” I did that. It’s not a good change, but if it’s broken, it’s a big deal. I thought about that too.”

Director Kim Hee-won joined after receiving a suggestion from Kang Pul. He said “When Kang Pul suggested it, ‘What did you see and ask me to do this?'” Kang Pul said. He said he liked my acting best while watching the movement. ‘It’s just a normal teacher. What do you like about it~’ So you want to make that ‘move’?? I think it was. Everyone has superpowers, but I’m the only one who doesn’t have them. I’m not the only one fighting superpowers, and if you throw me in ‘Moving’, I’ll fly far away and hit the wall, but I won’t die. In any case, you have to love your students a lot to fight superpowers. I changed my script a little because I said I should put a god who loves students because I have to fight for my life but I can’t fight it ridiculous. I heard that Kang Pul’s thoughts were persuaded by me. When you make ‘movement’. So I think it was kind of impressive for her to talk her into writing the script and doing ‘Moving.’ That’s what he said. He said the acting was good on the outside, but that’s what he said.

The only place that lights up at the end of a dark alley is the lighting shop, which tells the story of customers with suspicious secrets who come to the lighting shop, and it attracted attention as Kim Hee-won’s directorial debut in the original work by Kang Pul .
