Kim Hee-won of the movie ‘High Five’ praised the professionalism of director Kang Hyung-chul and the actors who worked with him.

Kim Hee-won met with Donga.com for an interview about the film ‘High Five’ at a cafe in Jongno-gu, Seoul on the afternoon of the 28th and talked about the work.

On this day, when asked about the acting of various actors, Kim Hee-won answered, “I think they are very good.And these actors here are the gods of compromise.There are really five of them gathered together, and they didn’t try to stand out, but put a lot of effort into making sure that each other looked good.The value was that each other had to look good, so I looked good too.I think the gods of compromise came together and did it.In the case of Jae-in, she is young, but she acted with such a pure mind, and it was really, really good.”



When asked if there were any ad-libs prepared as an actor since it was a comedy film, Kim Hee-won said, “There is no film that doesn’t have as much ad-libs as this one.Since it’s a comedy film, I thought about ad-libbing, but the director restrained me from it.Miran and Jae-hong are both really good at comedy, and since they were working really hard at something, I think the director helped them focus a lot.When I watched the film, it definitely fit the comedy without going overboard.It helped me a lot in getting there.I also prepared a lot of ad-libs.Since it’s a comedy film, it has to be fun, so I prepared a lot, and the director helped me focus a lot.”

Regarding director Kang Hyung-chul, who directed ‘High Five’, Kim Hee-won said, “Director Kang Hyung-chul is a gentleman.He writes everything on set, and he is usually not cheerful.He is very reserved, serious, and calm.Because he is well-prepared, there was never a case of being confused on set.It was fun because everything ended as planned.He is quiet and calm.He has clear thoughts.When actors are well-prepared, they are naturally happy.”



When asked if Director Kang Hyung-chul’s appearance influenced her in preparing for the filming set of “Lighting Store,” which she directed, Kim Hee-won said, “Of course.While acting, I experienced a lot of discomfort when I wasn’t prepared.There are times when I prepared a lot, but variables arise and things turn out strangely.Every time that happens, everyone is uncomfortable, but I learned a lot that the preparation process is very important.As I went along, when I was directing, I prepared thoroughly, and that’s how I didn’t get criticized and made many people feel comfortable.Director Kang Hyung-chul prepared thoroughly like a textbook.Since he didn’t waver, the actors could just do their own thing and focus on acting.He was a good director.”

Meanwhile, ‘High Five’, which will be released on the 30th, is a comic action film that depicts the story of five people who accidentally gained different superpowers through organ transplants and who meet those who covet their powers.

‘Yakseon’, played by Kim Hee-won, is a meticulous and picky foreman who constantly nags and exhausts the employees at construction sites.He is the most avoided person among his coworkers, but he hides a warmer heart than anyone else behind his stiff speech.
