The production presentation of Coupang Play's original drama series 『Things After Love』 (directed by Moon Hyun-sung) was held in Westin Chosun Seoul, Jung-gu, Seoul on the morning of the 12th. Director Lee Se-young, Kentaro Sakaguchi, Hong Jong-hyun, An Nakamura and Moon Hyun-sung attended the event.
'Things After Love' is an emotional melodrama about a woman who forgets everything 'Hong' and a man who is full of regrets 'Jungo' after a fateful love ends. Lee Se-young and Kentaro Sakaguchi will meet Hong and Jun-go, who accidentally met again after the end of their love, to show melodrama chemistry, and Hong Jong-hyun will perform a consistent love story as Min-joon. Nakamura An plays Khanna, who tries to find love that she belatedly realized. It is a location between Korea and Japan, showing the scenery of both countries.
Director Moon said, `My favorite genre since I was young is melodrama. In the meantime, I haven't had a chance to direct such a work, so as soon as my first work 'Korea' was over, I looked at several original works with my colleagues, and the title was so touching since our writer introduced me to this original work. The content was also similar to the love story I imagined, so I started preparing in earnest from 2015. Lee Se-young, who appeared on the show, said, `As you prepared for a long time, I thought you thought a lot about it and looked carefully at the emotional line of each character."

Hong Jong-hyun, who showed his pure love for Hong, is also quite attractive. Hong Jong-hyun says "The word dedication suits you well, and there are also sad parts." Minjun is a person who has liked Hong for a long time. However, I can't confess easily, but after going to Japan, I make a decision. It starts with that, and although it's not a very hot relationship, we were meeting well while sharing small happiness with each other, and I noticed that someone appeared and Hong changed. Nevertheless, I think he's a man who tries to be around him in the same way. "
There was a language barrier because Korean and Japanese staff and actors were together, but beyond this, teamwork. Lee Se-young " (Kentaro Sakaguchi) is a person who doesn't talk much, so I spoke more Japanese. In the beginning, I have to react to Junko's words, so I have to listen carefully, but if I don't memorize all of these words, I can't understand, so I was very nervous and really lonely at first. However, the teacher helped me so well that I did it with confidence. When I worked with Japanese staff and Japanese actors on the spot, I played jokes, taught Japanese, and worked comfortably."
However, loneliness also existed. Lee Se-young actually felt lonely filming in Japan. I went out to shoot happily, but there was a feeling that I would be a little lonely. It seems that he understood his feelings for Hong-i because of the feelings he felt while speaking different lines in the field. I thought a lot about the inevitable loneliness or practical problems I felt when I did that, and I acted with the hope that the viewers would sympathize with that feeling."
Another advantage is that it contains beautiful scenery of Korea and Japan. In the love story between Jungo and Hong, spring in Japan was used, and winter in Korea was used after the breakup. Director Moon Hyun-sung said, `We needed four seasons of both Korea and Japan. There was only winter in Korea, but many people in both countries know the beautiful scenery of Korea and Japan. These days, it seems to be very familiar, so I think I thought about it with the staff because I wanted to delicately and emotionally capture the unique beauty. I hope you watch the main episode with such expectations" he said.
'Things After Love' will be released on Coupang Play on the 27th.
