Director Nobuhiro Yamashita revealed the reason why he cast Bae Doo Na 20 years ago. The press preview of the film "Linda Linda Linda" was held on the afternoon of the 12th in Gangnam-gu, Seoul.
The event was held at MEGABOX COEX in Tokyo, and was attended by director Yamashita Nobuhiro and actresses Bae Doo na, Maeda Aki, Kashii Yu, and Sekine Shiori.
"Linda Linda Linda" 4K remastering marks the end of high school life
The film depicts the brilliant youth of a high school girl band preparing for a festival and the Korean exchange student Song who accidentally becomes the lead singer. The film is directed by Yamashita Atsuhiro and stars Bae Doo Na.
Twenty years ago, it was rare for Korean actors to work overseas. For Bae Doo Na, "Linda Linda Linda" was the start of her overseas career.
This was possible because director Yamashita Nobuhiro fell in love with Bae Doo Na through director Bong Joon-ho's "A Dog of Flanders."
Director Yamashita Nobuhiro said, "I fell in love with Bae Doo Na at first sight after watching director Bong Joon-ho's 'A Dog of Flanders'.
I proposed it thinking that he wouldn't accept it, but I was surprised when he said he would accept it." "In fact, after doing the calculations now, I can't even take a step forward.
However, it seems that being 28 years old is scary. He boldly took on the challenge head-on. I think it was a good idea to make the proposal so openly.
I want to praise that day when I was 28 years old."
He continued, "Because Bae Doo Na is a Korean actress, we wanted her to appear in our production.
"It wasn't that. I was attracted to him when I saw his work, but he was just a Korean actor," he said, emphasizing, "I always place importance on the individuality of an actor."
Even though 20 years have passed since its release, it remains a hot topic in the hearts of audiences as a legendary youth band story.
The 4K remastered version of "Linda Linda Linda" will be re-released in Korea on the 17th.
