Director Kim Jeong-kwon, Lee Young-ae, Lee Moo-saeng, Kim Young-jae, and Hwang Bo-reum-byeol attended the event.
This work raises expectations of freshness not only because of the unique subject matter of the orchestra, but also because it features a female conductor who has never been handled before.
Lee Young-ae, who played the role of Cha Se-eum, said, “There was no talk of a female conductor in Korea.
Director Kim said, "When I first prepared this work, it was important who would play Cha Se-eum.
“She was a conductor who broke away from the typical mold, so Lee Young-ae liked it, and I liked it too,” he explained the process.
Kim Young-jae, who plays the husband Kim Pil, who is the perfect husband but cannot show her all of her feelings, and Lee Moo-saeng, who plays the role of Yoo Jeong-jae, an old lover who constantly stimulates Cha Se-eum, emphasized their perfect acting chemistry with Lee Young-ae.
Lee Moo-saeng said, “If I could get a new nickname this time, I would like it to be ‘Cha Se-eum Wishing.’” Lee Moo-saeng said, “I like Lee Moo-saeng Laurent, but I would be very grateful to be called that for this work.”
