Director Park Zhenbiao's past works, such as "Seventy Years You Are My Destiny" and "That Guy's Voice", depict love's helplessness in the face of fate but a sense of satisfaction in the depths of despair. In addition to getting a good box office, it can also cause social repercussions and reflection. So the Korean media commented that he was digging the secret of life under the guise of love. The hero of the new work "My Love is by My Side" is not yet perfect, suffering from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and his life is coming to an end, so he wrote a love song of life and death with the heroine as a funeral consultant.
In 2006, Gerecke's disease was the first theme of the American documentary Time Like Water. Although the theme is heavy, the film has to redefine "time" and conquer many audiences with unique American humor and warm romance. Park Zhenbiao doesn't deny that he was influenced by Time Like Water, but he says that the emotional flow in My Love has oriental characteristics. "If westerners' joys and sorrows are very extroverted, then orientals are relatively introverted, and the energy of generate may be more touching in this aesthetic implication."
Quan Xiangyu+Ha Ji Won, ruined "good-looking"
The previous two collaborations of "Pastor's Education" were very popular, so the producer just announced the starring lineup, which immediately aroused strong repercussions from the outside world. With the support of blockbusters, some people doubt whether Quan Xiangyu, who has always been famous for his strength, can play this muscular patient well. Sure enough, the cooperation of "perfect talent and outstanding appearance" finally fell through, whether because the crew said that Quan Xiangyu quit at the last minute for no reason, or because the two sides had differences on the "zero pay" contract, it was a bit difficult for Quan Xiangyu, who had a healthy image and a newly married couple, to lose/kloc-0.5 kg to play this faceless dying man well.
Jin Mingmin+Ha Ji Won, a fresh performance group.
The angular interpretation in Beethoven Virus made Jin Mingmin's popularity soar again. Replacing Quan Xiangyu to play the role of Gerecke's disease not only did not attract rejection, but his combination with Ha Ji Won was even more refreshing. In the film circle where there are many romantic and fancy scenes, the expectation value brought by a pair of male and female protagonists often plays a vital role. Zong Yu knew that he was suffering from chronic diseases, but he did not change his humorous and optimistic style, which coincided with Jin Mingmin's vicissitudes and rigid and transparent temperament. Who is the real hero after Quan Xiangyu suddenly quit? No one is more curious about this question than Ha Ji Won. Although Yin Qixiang, Hae-il Park and other popular young artists were on the shortlist, when she heard that Jin Mingmin would definitely play, she described the shock: "It was like waking up from a deep sleep." Ha Ji Won said that Jin Mingmin is his respected elder: "He always shows terrible concentration and amazing role creation ability in his works." Her agent revealed that Tian Hailin had read Beethoven virus carefully and admired Jin Mingmin's acting skills. At the first meeting arranged by the producer, Ha Ji Won acted like a big-name "little fan", which made Jin Mingmin a little flattered.
Guest appearance of "Xue Qianwan"
"Hai Yuntai" and "Shiwei Island" made Xue Jingqiu the first actor in the Korean film industry to have two films with tens of millions of viewers, and the title of "Wan Xue" also came into being. I worked with Park Jin-biao in The Voice of That Guy, and Ha Ji Won was also a friend of life and death in Yuntai. When the producer invited a guest appearance, he readily agreed. In the film, Xue Jingqiu plays Gerecke's disease, which leads to brain necrosis. He is in the same hospital as Jin Mingmin, and miraculously regains consciousness after falling into a coma. This is obviously not difficult for him. The key is to add the word "Xue Jingqiu" to the card list, which has brought immeasurable box office effect.
I believe many viewers know that this film was originally starring Quan Xiangyu and Tian Hailin, and two people who have already cooperated in emotional drama are looking forward to new sparks. However, Quan Xiangyu temporarily changed his mind and refused to act, which had a great influence on film producers and directors. At that time, Quan Xiangyu's role as the leading actor in the film was also disputed by many audiences, who thought that his temperament did not match the role. In the re-casting, Jin Mingmin, who was shooting a TV series at that time, was chosen. He has greater expectations for the Jin Mingmin audience who have been playing a tough role. Jin Mingmin lived up to expectations. He lost 20 kilograms for this film. From the beginning of filming, the hero's health appeared, and from the beginning of the movie, Jin Mingmin began to lose weight in hell, and he completely behaved like a real patient.
As for Jin Mingmin, the leading actor, Ha Ji Won said that he was looking forward to playing opposite him. She said, "When I knew he was a candidate, I was very much looking forward to choosing him. I have seen his TV series, and his acting skills are really amazing. " Moreover, it is the first time for her to perform the strange profession of undertaker, so Ha Ji Won searched a lot of information about this profession on the Internet to understand this role. At the same time, Ha Ji Won also cut off her long hair and faced the audience with a more mature look.
When talking about the planning intention of the film, director Jin-pyo Park said that the most cruel thing to human beings in the world is disease, which cannot be controlled and confronted. This time, the hero's disease is rare, but it is the weakest disease, which makes people gradually unable to move, and consciousness begins to weaken until death. In the same ward, in addition to focusing on the touching story of Jin Mingmin and Tian Hailin supporting each other, the other five patients also formed five stories, including an elderly wife waiting for a vegetative husband for 9 years; The mother takes care of her daughter disabled by traffic accidents, etc. Sun Jiaren, the youngest of the popular women's group "Brown-eyed Girls", plays the daughter who is physically disabled due to a traffic accident. It was not easy for her to play the role of expressing her heart with expressions for the first time.
Sun Jiaren plays the role of a disabled athlete.
Jia Ren is a newcomer to the film, and his name alone has won some momentum. A member of the Brown Eye Women's Troupe debuted in 2006, which is her first screen work. In My Love is By My Side, she plays an athlete who is disabled by an accident. She lives in the same ward as Yu Zong, who is also ill. Although there are not many scenes, it is a big challenge for a beautiful woman who is active and skipping on weekdays. Beauty said: "I have earned it by cooperating with outstanding predecessors such as Hotan Hailin and Jin Mingmin", and said that because I love dancing, I can understand the pain of the sudden loss of physical activities of the characters in the film.
In order to appear in this film, Ha Ji Won cut off his hair for seven years and studied funerals. "JiXiu has experienced many things and got married three times, but she is still very lively. I think short hair is more suitable than long hair. " Ha Ji Won also drank wine that he didn't usually drink, and went to the East Gate to find clothes, which was close to the life style of Zhixiu.
Beauty, a member of the "brown-eyed girl" group, made her debut on the big screen with this film. In the film, she plays an athlete who is disabled by accident and lives in the same ward as Zong Yu, who is also suffering from illness.
