[스타톡] “Seungri-ho” Kim Tae-ri “Captain is like a pistol trigger”

[서울=뉴스핌] Reporter Yang Jin-young = Actor Kim Tae-ri challenged once again as Korea’s first SF blockbuster’Seungri-ho’. Captain Jang, who he played, is a tough, raw, and rarely seen female character.

Tae-ri Kim told the story of’Seungri-ho’, which was released on Netflix through an online video interview on the 15th. He is said to have been carefully selected by director Jo Sung-hee as an actor that suits the character of Captain Jang.

“Looking at the scenario, I tried to find out what kind of small gestures I could show with the crew on board the ship worthy of the title of Captain. We made those scenes on site, and in the way we look at Taeho and the way we deal with businessmen. I tried to express it with things like the affection that came out. I was wondering where I could show that I wasn’t just a captain but a really trusted and trusted person.”

Starting with Captain Jang, played by Tae-ri Kim, the members of Seung-ho are not ordinary. Song Joong-ki, Hae-jin Ha, and Jin Seon-gyu, as well as child Park Ye-rin, are all in the movie. Kim Tae-ri also showed the most satisfaction in this point.

“I used to say that’Seungri-ho’ is a team play. The ensemble between actors and characters was very good. The fact that this movie is a collaboration of 5 people including Kkot-nim was fun and cute and I was most attracted to it. Why is that? I don’t know. I think that part has come alive after meeting good seniors. Personally, I am very satisfied with the chemistry of the Seungho team members. Haha.”

Is it thanks to the teamwork that Tae-ri Kim mentioned? The reaction pouring into’Seungriho’ released on Netflix is ​​surprising. Beyond Korea, it was well received worldwide as it ranked at the top of the streaming rankings. Above all, Tae-ri Kim was proud that the Korean sentiment was well alive.

“I feel really good because the reaction is so good. I didn’t expect it up to this point when I said it was released on Netflix. It’s amazing. It’s a situation where I got a direct call from a friend in London and got a review in English saying that I saw the captain well. I’m proud of that because it’s not too embarrassing to show it to overseas people, and it’s not like it’s going to follow Hollywood, it’s made as a movie that tastes our taste.”

Nevertheless, the character of Captain Jang was not an easy role for Kim Tae-ri. Some evaluate it three-dimensionally, but some think it as an indefinite character. He interpreted by Kim Tae-ri, who played directly, was’a person who runs to the end in a simple and powerful way.

“When I first saw the scenario that it was simple on the surface but a warm insider. When I went to the scene and gave a command in the spaceship, Captain Jang was a very complicated love than I thought. He was a very high-level person and how can I show it? After seeing the finished movie, I realized that I had to adjust the mood for genre movies, this character can’t do this, and I realized that I had to work with a much more open mind than I thought it didn’t suit me. I also felt regret that I could have done it more cutely and interestingly and in a cartoon way to show a deep character.”

Captain Jang, who director Cho Sung-hee describes as a’big person’, is tougher than anyone else and sometimes looks worse, but he is a person with a firm belief and sense of justice in his heart. Director Jo told Kim Tae-ri that he felt that impression, but Kim Tae-ri shook his head, saying, “I have no idea.”

“Captain Jang is a big person for me to follow. I want to ask you when I meet the director right now. Haha. I think being a big person is the aspect that the director wanted to see from Captain Jang. The face wasn’t that much, but I want to see the feeling of a strong and solid person. I guess you thought I was such a person. I’ve also been asked what if Kim Tae-ri goes to 2092, but I don’t think they will be able to choose between Captain Jang or the crew of Seung-ho. I’m not that courageous person. I’m a coward. (Laughter) I think I’m doing my job.”

From the standpoint of participating in person, I was curious about the charm of’Seungriho’ that Tae-ri Kim picks. He cited’Korean things’ and’fresh paintings’ as the secret to the enthusiastic response from overseas. In particular, he picked the first Seungho’s glide scene and chase scene as a great picture that shows the identity of this film at a glance.

“Isn’t it because it’s a picture I haven’t seen before. I was like that. If a space movie comes out in Korea, it would look like this. It’s Korean, it’s not like a foreign one, it contains our emotions and goes beyond family love and tells the story of humanity and people. I also read that it’s a space movie, but acting in Korean is fresh.. Oh, yes, I thought I would have felt shocked in foreign countries even if only the language was different.. The pursuit scene of the first Seung-ho was our ship’s purpose and personality. It’s a scene that shows me and I’m really satisfied because it came out really well. CG, music, and scenes were just right. I felt the excitement of the first screenplay.”

As the ending of the movie repeats a reversal, it may seem that season 2 is in mind. Although Tae-ri Kim spared the words “I don’t know,” he carefully stimulated the anticipation by referring to the worldview of Captain Jang’s warrior and’Seungri-ho’ drawn by director Jo Sung-hee.

“If’Seungri-ho’ was a pistol, Captain Jang thought it was the trigger. When everyone is doing what to do in a situation, Captain Jang knows how to see beyond. Among the people who change in the situation, Captain Jang is the one who changes from start to finish. I was like a person who was there with one belief and justice, a person who keeps a cause, why this person is a captain, why he carries a self-destruction device in his mouth. You listened to it a lot. At the first meeting, you expressed your affection with great enthusiasm and enthusiasm. How much will Captain Jang shine in Seungri Lake. I have anticipation. I don’t know specifically, haha.”
