Kim Hye Yoon & Lee Jong Won's 'The Killer's Shopping List' Chemistry Revealed

Actress Kim Hye-yun shared her thoughts on working with Lee Jong-won as former lovers in the movie 'Salmokji' and behind-the-scenes stories from filming. Kim Hye-yun said, "​The older brother called my name a lot in the drama, so I thought, 'Ah, this is someone who's worried about me.'"

The movie 'Salmokji,' opening on the 8th, is a horror film about what happens when an unidentified figure is captured on 'Salmokji's' road view, and the filming crew, heading to a reservoir for reshoots, encounters something in the dark, deep water. This work is director Lee Sang-min's feature directorial debut, and Kim Hye-yun plays the role of Han Su-in, a PD at the road view service company Onroad Media.

In the movie, Kim Hye-yun appears as Lee Jong-won's former lover, showcasing "ex-chemistry." She said, "​From the first time Jong-won oppa saw me, he made me feel comfortable as if we already knew each other, so we became close easily," and "​I worried about how to best portray the 'ex-chemistry,' but the director guided Su-in's speech in a sharp, curt direction, so we filmed it well." She also added, "​Even when we were on a boat in the reservoir at night, I relied a lot on oppa."

Regarding the underwater filming process, she said, "I actually like water quite a lot," but honestly confessed, "​This time, the genre was dark and all the props were scary, so I was afraid when I actually went underwater." She continued, "​Jong-won oppa finished filming skillfully first, and with his encouragement, I thought, 'I must overcome this fear,'" and expressed her gratitude to Lee Jong-won, saying, "​Even though I didn't have as many underwater scenes as oppa, I was able to finish filming with peace of mind."
