Interview (인터뷰)

A CINE 2000 production

Presented by Cinema Service

I hate when the first scene of a film just pops up.

It puts me off.

INTERVIEW

A film's first scene is crucial..

The first 5 mins, and you've got it.

You get the whole storyline.

Masterpieces have great opening scenes, like .

LEE Jung-jae, SHIM Eun-ha

Take ! The prologue's a killer.

It just takes your breath away!

CHO Jae-hyun, KWON Min-joong KIM Jung-hyun

I hate when the first scene of a film just pops up.

It puts me off.

It seems like it's saying, "take it or leave it, don't waste your time.."

Would you leave after buying the ticket?

Take ! The prologue's a killer.

It just takes your breath away!

..It just takes your breath away!

isn't so bad,

building a scene.. around 'Like a Virgin'

... around...

They're just trying to be cool...

They're just trying be cool.

In that sense, straight forward commercial films are sincere.

At least they don't...

At least they don't pretend that they're something.

By the way..

By the way, what is our director, ..trying to say?

Executive Producer LEE Chun-yun

Director Daniel H. BYUN

Will it be okay?

This is great.

Could you look this way?

Don't be nervous. Just relax,

and..keep your answers short!

-Short? -Yes.

Now, shall we begin?

SEOUL, JUNE OF 1999

We..in my room. We got back together in 2 years.

She came to my room. It was the first time.

The music, that we've been sharing for some time..

We sent each other so many tapes.

We turned on the music and kissed.

I remember it being quite romantic..

For me, it's more like...

I haven't been to his room in 2 years. We danced in it

for an hour, maybe more..

-I don't even remember. -Really?

I believe that love is for the gods.

The only kind of love humans can sustain is the temporary kind.

Not anything eternal.

That's why many writers and filmmakers deal with this subject

through films and novels.

People read them and turn them into bestsellers.

Don't you think?

-Should I look at the camera? -Look at me.

Hi, my name is KWON Min-joong.

I was one of the main runner ups in the '96 Miss Korea pageant.

In '98, I made my film debut with .

And today, I came to meet an old friend. Now here I am.

I guess.. I was born to be an actress.

I guess you're right.

Shall we begin?

Okay.

What is your name?

LEE Young-hee.

What do you do for a living?

I work at the nearby beauty parlor.

How long have you worked there?

I'm just the assistant now but I'll apply for a license.

Who's that?

Her name is LEE Young-hee. She's the friend of KWON Min-joong.

LEE YOUNG-HEE, THE HAIRDRESSER'S ASSISTANT

Do you have a boyfriend?

He's doing his military service. The white skull division..

It's been about 6 months, I write him every other day.

They make fun of me at the beauty parlor.

But I get nervous when I don't hear from him.

I guess you're going to get married?

Yes..

At the train station,

he asked me to wait,

so we could get married.

I found myself crying.

He looked at me and started crying himself.

It was like the movies..

My heart opens up to the sound of your voice.

Mr. CHOI!

Young-hee and Min-joong, I like them both..

But I think Young-hee's too plain.

I'm concerned that Min-joong's an actress, but she might be better.

Besides, with Young-hee, there's too much restrictions.

Shooting the beauty parlor and her boyfriend are all out.

We should just stick with Min-joong.

What do you think?

Do you have to talk work now?

Take it easy.

Do you like managing the cafe?

Of course, with all this cool music all day..

Sorry to say so, but your life is easy cause you have rich parents.

So what if I have rich parents!

Is it a sin? I haven't stolen from anyone.

What did I tell you? It's money that gives you class.

What do you think love is?

Hmm..credit card bills.

Buying her clothes and shoes..

then getting the bills after breaking up..

Isn't that what it's all about?

Like traces of stains.

Is that the only kind of love you know?

Yeah, so what?

Can't you give it a rest?

Let's have some fun here.

You think people want to watch interviews like ours?

If I had the money to make this kind of movie,

I'd rather buy another cafe.

It's your turn next you know?

Fucking hard, isn't it?

Hey~ watch your mouth!

Mr. CHOI..

Tell us one of your love stories.

About..20?

What?

I guess I slept with 20 girls.

Come on!

Yuck!..

Eun-yong! Where are you going?

Let's be more serious.

Tell us your true story.

Most of my boyfriends were interested in me first.

After the first date, they asked me out again.

That feeling, of being flattered..

It's happened once again.

My ex who's still in the U.S...

One thing I still feel bad about is,

after our first time in bed, she asked,

''You love me, that's why we're doing this, right?''

Why do girls have to ask this question all the time?

I couldn't help being put off.

"Why do they always ask the same question?

I love you of course", I said.

I still regret this. I thought I've had it all.

But I think I've finally met my true love.

All the colors of the world, have changed.

My soul is at peace.

Suddenly I'm wondering how many people have shared this feeling.

That's why I want to become a messenger of love..

LET'S LOVE!

Since your interview will be used in our film,

we want you to sign an agreement allowing us to use your interviews.

Have you ever signed one before?

Be quiet..

Know what an 'agreement' is in English?

I told you to shut up!

When are you due?

This month.

-What are you going to name it? -Little Mo.

Little Mo?

Like ? Is that it?

In the ultrasound, the child was making these small movements.

It's moving again.

-Hello. -Hi, Eun-young!

It's Eun-yong, not Eun-young. YANG-EUN-YONG

YANG Eun-yong, need any help?

-You're here! -Get off!

-Are we leaving now? -Yeah.

Before traffic gets too heavy.

Is this the new camera?

So is the focus problem fixed?

-Is this a new hairdo? -Huh?

My hair is naturally curly.

Lose the cap, you look like Elvis.

Don't you agree, Eun-yong?

I like him with the cap on.

Uh? KWON Min-joong's on the list.

Is this final?

How should I know?

Want me to call her?

I know you have an ulterior motive.

Come on, this is all for the film.

An actress like her can raise the film's profile.

-YANG Eun-yong! -Yes!

- Did you copy the list? - Here it is.

Let's go.

-If you're ready, let's move it. -Okay.

-Revise the schedule. -Okay.

Hello?

Ms. KWON Min-joong?

Do you remember me?

It's SONG Byung-gwon, the interview, last time?

We need some more interviews.

How about tomorrow? Over lunch.

S-E-V-E-N

How about 7?
