    Content Writing Pop News The hit filmmaker who helmed “Veteran” (2015) and “Escape From Mogadishu” (2021) returns with the star-studded female-led action film “Smugglers.” Set in a peaceful seaside village in the 1970s, the crime action film revolves around an accident in front of "haenyeo," female divers who collect seafood from the ocean floor. Kim Hye Soo, Yum Jung Ah, Zo In Sung, Park Jung Min, Kim Jong Soo and Go Min Si act in the film. Actresses Kim Hye Soo and Yum Jung Ha had to overcome their fear of the water while shooting the film. Most of the scenes were shot inside a 6-meter-deep water tank. “I didn’t know that I panic when I see water. Maybe it was after shooting 'The Thieves' (2012) when I was locked in a submerged car in handcuffs. So it took me a while to get familiar with underwater shooting,” Kim said during a press conference at Lotte Cinema Konkuk University on Tuesday. Prior to the underwater and seaside shooting, the actors trained for about three months. Yum said she did not like going into the water before. “I don’t like the water but after hearing that Kim would star, I was more than happy. Having wrapped up the shooting, I really miss all of our cast” said Yum, who appears as the leader of women divers. Director Ryoo Seung Wan said although the film is led by two female characters, it’s more about a team. “From the planning stage, I had Kim Hye Soo and Yum Jung Ah on top of the list. It’s something that I cannot explain in words, but for me, they were irreplaceable actors for this movie,” Ryoo told reporters, joking that Zo In Sung and Park Jung Min were cast as he was looking for actors who were not busy. “Unlike TV dramas or streaming content, there have not been many female-led films. When I received the director’s suggestion for this project, I was thankful that this kind of film was planned and I got the role. I also appreciate Zo and Park for adding good energy to our film,” Kim said. She added that even if she had not starred in the film, the fact that director Ryoo, who has effectively communicated with the audience previously, has returned with female-led film would have heighted her anticipation to see it. Zo, who also appeared in Ryoo’s “Escape From Mogadishu,” said he mastered the action sequences this time for greater impact and higher quality. Zo stars as Kwon, who collaborates with Cho (Kim Hye Soo) to find a new smuggling route. “Compared to ‘Mogadishu’ where my action was more improvisation, I tried to do action this time under Ryoo’s detailed direction and get confirmation from him,” Zo told reporters. “Smugglers” opens in local theaters July 26. http://m.heraldpop.com/

    Pop News (KT Studio Genie) Cable channel Genie TV will kick off the summer with its highly anticipated eight-part suspense thriller series “Lies Hidden in My Garden.” Director Jung Ji Hyun and the star-studded cast did not hide their excitement for the series during a press conference at Stanford Hotel Seoul in Mapo-gu, Seoul on Monday. “Our drama does not have a lot of sensational, shocking scenes to surprise and thrill viewers like many existing thriller projects. However, our show has a mysterious aura and uncanny atmosphere that will entertain them,” said actor Lim Ji Yeon, who caught many drama fans’ hearts in the hit revenge series “The Glory.” In contrast to her role as the iconic villain Yeon Jin in “The Glory,” Lim plays a pregnant woman who is a victim of domestic violence in “Lies Hidden in My Garden.” Lim stressed that as she shot "Lies Hidden in My Garden" before the release of "The Glory," she was not under any pressure to show a different side of herself as an actor. Rather, she was simply drawn to the character of Sang Sun. “Initially, I wanted to know who Sang-eun was. As I delved into the script, I simply wished to become Sang Eun. After I read the original novel, I was satisfied with my choice to star this series,” Lim said. Co-star Kim Tae Hee who is returning to the small screen three years after 2020’s “Hi Bye, Mama!” agreed with Lim about the unique charms of the series' individual characters. “Though thriller is an unfamiliar genre for me, the storyline was exciting. When I finished reading the script for the first episode, I was eager to find out what would happen next. Simply imagining myself playing Joo Ran made my heart race,” Kim said during the press conference. “I feel that our series is a well-made project that will satisfy thriller fans' passion for suspense. I didn’t feel a lot of pressure with viewership, but I hope the series will be enjoyed by as many people as possible,” the actor added. Director Jung Ji Hyun, who was behind the smash hit coming-of-age series “Twenty Five Twenty One,” said that he put his utmost effort to bring what was written in the script to life on the screen. “‘Lies Hidden in My Garden’ did not have a lot of dialogue. The characters’ psychological state and emotions were expressed through texts in many cases. So I tried to explain and present the characters with various camera angles, shots with symbolic props and show their facial expressions, among others,” the director said. “Lies Hidden in My Garden” is expected to be one of the most anticipated series of the year, as Lim stars in the series with top actor Kim for the first time. Adapted from a novel titled “A House with A Yard” (unofficial translation) by author Kim Jin Young, the thriller series revolves around an ordinary housewife named Joo Ran (played by Kim), whose life veers in an unexpected direction after noticing a strange smell in her backyard and meeting Sang Run (played by Lim). Meeting both local and global drama fans’ high expectations, “Lies Hidden in My Garden” pre-sold its distribution rights to 190 countries before its premiere. “Lies Hidden in My Garden” premieres at 10 p.m. on Monday, with new episodes to be released on Mondays and Tuesdays on local cable channel ENA and on global streaming platforms Netflix, Amazon Prime, Hulu Japan, iQIYI and Rakuten Viki. http://m.heraldpop.com/

He hit the stage for "It's Kim Nam Joon at 5 pm" a special program held as part of the two weeks of BTS 10th Anniversary Festa, which kicked off at various places in Seoul on Monday. "I used to go to school with Yoongi and practice when I was a trainee, but it feels amazing and nostalgic that I'm here to celebrate our 10th anniversary with a festival like this," he said during the talk session held at Han River Park in Seoul's Yeouido area. "Kim Nam Joon" in the title is the original Korean name of the BTS member, while Min Yoon Gi is Suga's real name.
