Actor Lee Byung-hun attracted attention by appearing on his wife Lee Min-jung's YouTube channel. In the video released on the 16th, Lee Min-jung invited Lee Byung-hun, Park Hee-soon, and director Park Chan-wook to discuss the movie "Decision to Leave." Lee Min-jung had promised, "If the channel surpasses 500,000 subscribers this year, I will feature Lee Byung-hun," but at the time of the video's release, the channel had about 385,000 subscribers, so Lee Byung-hun's face was pixelated.
Lee Min-jung asked Lee Byung-hun, "Why did you come looking so handsome?" and Park Hee-soon added with a laugh, "You probably won't show your face anyway." Lee Byung-hun explained, "Still, I thought it was right to act as if I would appear because you never know what might happen." During the broadcast, Lee Min-jung shared her difficulty in speaking formally to her husband, saying, "It's hard to use honorifics."
Lee Byung-hun talked about his role in "Decision to Leave." He said, "When I get angry, my son and I are already covered in blood," sharing an episode from his family life. Lee Min-jung revealed, "I have a simple personality, so when I get angry, I just get angry. Sometimes when I get too angry, I apologize to the kids, saying 'Sorry for raising my voice.'" Lee Byung-hun humorously described their relationship, saying, "Even between husband and wife, we are this worn out; I can't imagine being a boss."
Lee Byung-hun showed his doting father side by talking about their 19-month-old daughter Seo-i going to daycare. He said, "When I put her on the daycare shuttle bus, she screamed. I just wanted to take her with me, but I remember having to let her go." After attending the Venice Film Festival and watching "Decision to Leave," Lee Min-jung expressed surprise at the standing ovation and described the film as "a moving movie."
The movie "Decision to Leave," starring Lee Byung-hun and directed by Park Chan-wook, tells the story of Mansu (Lee Byung-hun), who prepares for a battle to find a new job after being fired to protect his wife and two children. The film won the International People's Choice Award at the 50th Toronto International Film Festival and is scheduled to be released in Korea on the 24th.
Lee Byung-hun praised working with director Park Chan-wook, saying, "The director has become more meticulous and persistent." He expressed the burden of directing, saying, "There were so many things the director had to do while filming this movie." Director Park Chan-wook joked, "There is a lot to do compared to the money you see." Lee Byung-hun added, "If I quit acting and was told 'Just do this,' it would still be a concern because there is so much work. If I had to do both acting and directing, it would be impossible for one person."
This video marked Lee Byung-hun's first appearance on YouTube, attracting much fan interest. Lee Min-jung showed pride in her husband's acting, saying, "At home, Lee Byung-hun said, 'The director has become more meticulous and persistent.'" Lee Byung-hun said, "This movie is really special. I hope many people look forward to it."
