Nam Goong Min is once again reaching the peak of his acting skills in SBS Friday-Saturday drama ‘Our Movie’.
In the first episode of ‘Our Movie’ (directed by Lee Jung-heum, written by Han Ga-eun and Kang Kyung-min), which aired on the 14th, Nam Goong-min plays the role of ‘Lee Je-ha’, a film director who harbors burden and wounds about his next project, and is delivering deep resonance.This work, which received attention as a comeback to the melodrama genre, rose to 2nd place on the daily ranking of OTT platform Kinolights(as of June 14th)amid favorable reviews such as “a drama that is more touching because it is not provocative” with its emotional lines, sensuous directing, and the actors ‘intimate acting.
At the center of it all is Nam Goong Min’ s presence.He once said, “I would have been embarrassed as an actor if I had turned down this project.” As he said, he went deep into the character of Ha-ra Lee and expressed the wounds, confusion, and conflict with his delicate eyes and facial expressions, drawing the viewers ‘immersion.
From the bitterness shown by the reality of not being able to announce his next work, to the emotional line of confusion and regret after finding out that the first draft of’ White Love ‘, which he thought was a movie about his father’s affair, was actually written by his mother.Nam Goong Min convincingly portrayed the weight of the character by suppressing his emotions inside rather than pouring them out.
His inner acting also shines in his relationship with Lee Da-eum(played by Jeon Yeo-bin).Nam Goong-min’s characteristic restrained expressions, which convey emotions through eyes while being indifferent but affectionate and sparing with words, simultaneously give excitement and depth to the character.The reason why Lee Je-ha is drawn to the special energy that only Lee Da-eum possesses is naturally conveyed through Nam Goong-min’s acting.
In the drama, Lee Je-ha makes up his mind to recreate ‘White Love’ and Lee Da-eum is placed at the center of it all, making us anticipate their melodramatic narrative even more.Lee Je-ha’s change, which leaves a strong aftertaste without making a big sound, and Nam Goong-min’s acting that captures it are foreshadowing another life character.
Episode 3 of SBS Friday-Saturday drama ‘Our Movie’ will air at 9:50 PM on the 20th.
