[HanCinema's News] Radio Interview Held for "Dream - 2020"

On April 13th, SBS Power FM Radio ran an interview featuring Park Seo-joon, Kim Jong-soo, and Heo Joon-seok in the two o' clock program slot. These three actors were promoting the feature film "Dream - 2020" in which they all appear. Park Seo-joon plays a scandalized soccer player who coaches a team of homeless players, including Kim Jong-soo and Heo Joon-seok among others, to try and improve his reputation.

Park Seo-joon noted how despite being filmed in 2020, it's only three years later that "Dream - 2020" is finally being released in theaters. He described it as a human comedy for men and women, elderly and young viewers alike. Park Seo-joon also had strong words of praise for Lee Ji-eun, claiming that he was a fan of her work even as an actress and high expectations for her. Park Seo-joon also said that meeting her in person was great stimulation for a fun filing experience.

But this was not Kim Jong-soo's first time working with Lee Ji-eun. He had met her while making "Producers" in 2015. He played the father of the character played by Kim Soo-hyun. Kim Jong-soo said he was happy to be working with her again, as her attitude led to a bright and pleasant filming environment. Kim Jong-soo also mentioned a difficult scene where the homeless people played soccer poorly due to a lack of stamina.

"Dream - 2020" is the eighth project that Heo Joon-seok has done together with writer/director Lee Byeong-heon-I. When asked if this made him a bit of a persona, Heo Joon-seok said that this can make his work difficult since he still has to act under the assumption there isn't one. In response to a call-in question about why he's so popular, Park Seo-joon admitted that he thinks the main reason is because he's handsome.

Park Seo-joon is 185 centimeters tall with long legs, and credits his father for this. For three years, he had to do morning exercises of ten laps around a track and two thousand turns of jumping rope. This gave his great stamina throughout all of high school, where he was always the number one athlete. "Dream - 2020" will premiere in South Korean theaters on April 26th.
