Son Hyun-joo and Kim Myung-min heat up the small screen this summer with an unyielding acting war.

On the afternoon of the 12th, a production presentation for Genie TV's original drama Your Honor was held at the St. in D-Cube City, Guro-gu, Seoul. Actors Son Hyun-joo, Kim Myung-min, Kim Do-hoon, Jung Eun-chae, and director Yoo Jong-sun attended the scene.

'Your Honor' is a fatherly instinctive confrontation between two fathers who decide to become monsters for their children. Director Pyo Min-soo, who directed 'The Moon in the Daytime', 'The Third Charm', 'Producer', 'Iris2', and 'Full House', participated as creators. On top of that, director Yoo Jong-sun, who directed 'Paper Moon', 'Eosa and Joy', '60 Days, Designated Survivor', and writer Kim Jae-hwan, who wrote 'Boy's Generation', joined forces.

Director Yoo described the story of two fathers fighting for their honor over survival and revenge"It's a very exciting thriller and an authentic drama about deep relationships between humans. I worked with actors Son Hyun-joo and Kim Myung-min, who have been honored for the longest time in the Korean drama industry.

In particular, Son Hyun-joo and Kim Myung-min compete fiercely for their sons, drawing different images of paternal love. Son Hyun-joo, who plays Judge Song Pan-ho, said, `I first received the script through my agency"Your Honor" is based on Israel and remade in the American version. I was looking forward to this work when I said it would be filmed in a Korean style. The script was interesting, and the directors and the production team put a lot of effort into the work," he said.

He then cited his collaboration with Kim Myung-min as the decisive reason for joining the work. Son Hyun-joo said "I worked with him for the first time this time, and I felt sorry that why I couldn't meet him in advance." So on the other hand, I wanted to meet again. As you can see from the 1st to 10th episodes, I hope you watch carefully how Kim Myungmin's situation changes and expresses it"I asked for expectations.

Kim Myung-min, who played Kim Kang-heon, a powerful man under the law, said, `The work was planned a long time ago, and I was contacted by director Pyo first before director Yoo joined. If it was Pyo's call, I thought I didn't need to read the script, and when I heard that Son Hyun-joo would also appear, I said okay. I've seen my brother on screen and CRT, but I thought he'd be a really nice guy. When I saw him in person, it was like a really big mountain. Whenever I was sick and wanted to be healed, I went to the mountains, and they held me personally and acting. You were there for me. No matter how hard and tired I was, I was able to go well"I expressed my appreciation.

Kim Myung-min, who returned to the small screen three years after the drama 'Rocool', also confessed about his current situation. He has a son"It was a time when I had to go to high school, high school, high school, and college when I was in adolescence. I started studying late, so I called my child 'Mogiri', but I tried to minimize the stress of studying while traveling with my child. I had a good time with my family and no regrets for the past three years," he said.

Then "At first, I was working, but after taking a month off, my body was itching. But as I kept playing, I wanted to play. After entering the filming of `Your Honor', I got a stye that didn't work, and I thought, `As expected, people have to work.'

Kim Do-hoon will portray Song Ho-young, the son of Song Pan-ho, in the play to portray a precarious relationship between the father and the son. About how he felt about working with Son Hyun-joo and the father and son, he said "Is it always going to go to the set??Da"I thought "I met the best acting teacher while acting with Son Hyun-joo." Son Hyun-joo and Kim Myung-min are subtly different, but Hyun-joo feels like she's fully accepting me like a sponge, and Myung-min clearly penetrated me like a sharp awl.

Jung Eun-chae played Kang So-young, a passionate prosecutor at the Woowon District Prosecutors' Office who is not daunted by power. Recalling the atmosphere on set, he said "I was so nervous and insecure at first. He is a character who changes the game once and brings the flow as he is put in from the middle of the incident, and I was worried a lot about whether I could do well while looking directly into the eyes of Son Hyun-joo and Kim Myung-min. Nevertheless, the seniors existed as the characters themselves on the set, so I fell in love with them, and there was a miraculous moment where I was able to keep up with them" expressed satisfaction.

Earlier in June, Son Hyun-joo caused regret by telling the sad news of the brotherhood during the filming of 'Your Honor'. He said "My brother was very interested in this drama. There is not much age difference with my brother, but he suddenly left first at the end of June. You've only been on my side since I started broadcasting. My brother has taken pictures of me and I've covered them before, but I miss them so much. When 'Your Honor' is the first broadcast, I want to tell you that I made my acting not in vain and not embarrassed. I hope you enjoy it that much. "I miss you and love you." He conveyed his sincere heart, adding to his thirst.
