[신과함께-죄와 벌] 이정재, 감독에게 낚인 사연은?

The movie Along with the Gods: The Two Worlds*, based on the popular webtoon of the same name, is receiving immense anticipation from movie fans thanks to its star-studded cast. However, it is said that there is a hidden trap in the casting of Ha Jung-woo, Cha Tae-hyun, Ju Ji-hoon, and Lee Jung-jae. That secret was revealed at the *Along with the Gods: The Two Worlds production press conference, where laughter never ceased. Let's take a look at the footage. The movie Along with the Gods: The Two Worlds is garnering attention for its spectacular cast, featuring Ha Jung-woo, Cha Tae-hyun, Ju Ji-hoon, and Lee Jung-jae! [Sound of the scene] Hello, K STAR viewers. We are *Along with the Gods: The Two Worlds*. It is said that when Lee Jung-jae first decided to appear in the movie, he wasn't even at the point where he would be interviewed alongside the lead actors. [Sound of the scene: Lee Jung-jae] At first, Director Kim Yong-hwa asked if I could make a brief cameo appearance. I replied, "Oh, that’s great! Of course, I’ll happily do it!" It was a very small role. That is correct. Lee Jung-jae was a cameo actor in *Along with the Gods*. [Soundbite: Lee Jung-jae] I received a call two days later asking if I could play the role of the King of Hell. I don't usually accept scripts, and since I didn't even know how much screen time the King of Hell would get, [Soundbite: Park Kyung-rim] So you thought it would take about four days? [Soundbite: Lee Jung-jae] I said, "Ah, okay." But they insisted I had to play the King of Hell, so they asked me to come in for tests regarding the costume, special effects makeup, and all sorts of other things. That alone took over three days. I wondered, "What kind of role is this?" so I asked for the script. When I read it, I found out I appeared in the second film as well. [Soundbite: Park Kyung-rim] Both parts 1 and 2? [Soundbite: Lee Jung-jae] Yes, 30 times. I went in 30 times for the cameo appearance! [Sound of Park Kyung-rim] Hahahaha. And you ended up appearing at the production press conference as well. [Sound of Lee Jung-jae] They've put me in there for the promotion right now, [Sound of Park Kyung-rim] From my perspective, I think that's a highly sophisticated strategy, Director. [Sound of Lee Jung-jae] I don't know if our friendship was that deep. Lee Jung-jae, who was properly hooked by the director and ended up making a cameo appearance that rivals the lead actors! Although it was just a cameo, Lee Jung-jae did not hesitate to undergo special effects makeup to transform into the perfect King of Hell character. [Sound of Ha Jung-woo] I understand you grew it yourself. You actually grew it yourself. You didn't know? You did grow it. [Sound of Lee Jung-jae] I couldn't grow it myself. Unfortunately, they used my image and digitally edited it. They made my hair short, then made me completely bald once, and there was even one where I was completely bald with just a beard. [Sound of Cha Tae-hyun] Were you joking? [Sound of Ha Jung-woo] The Master Roshi style. Did you think of Master Roshi? [Sound of Lee Jung-jae] There were also images created to look like a character straight out of a comic book. One where I had nothing but sideburns and a mustache, and another where I was completely bald with a full beard. I shouldn't have mentioned this. I think they're going to look it up and release it as reference material. After several mock tests, Lee Jung-jae's King of Hell style was completed. It is said that Ha Jung-woo gave him a nickname after seeing this. [Sound of Park Kyung-rim] Did you say King Yeomra, Lee Jung-jae, had a nickname? [Sound of Ha Jung-woo] Yes, his hairstyle was actually very innocent-looking. So all the staff and actors called him 'Yeomra Unnie' (Unnie Yeomra). When he was getting his hair styled and makeup done, looking at his back, he looked exactly like an innocent older sister. So from then on, we all called him 'Yeomra Unnie'. Ha Jung-woo, who was the nickname maker on the set of [Along with the Gods: The Two Worlds], also gave a new nickname to the youngest member, Kim Hyang-gi. [Sound of Park Kyung-rim] Hyang-gi, what did Ha Jung-woo call you? [Sound of Kim Hyang-gi] Ah... 'Kim Smell'! [Sound of Park Kyung-rim] What did you say? What did he call you, Kim Hyang-gi? [Sound of Kim Hyang-gi] Smell [Sound of Park Kyung-rim] The name my parents gave me, 'Kim Smell,' was changed to 'Smell' [Sound of Ha Jung-woo] Smell isn't exactly a bad thing, is it? There are good smells, and it was just that kind of thing, so I had absolutely no intention of interfering with Hyang-gi's acting. However, if there is any sensitive aspect to that, Hyang-gi, I would like to take this opportunity to apologize. I am truly sorry, and we will have Artist Company release an official apology statement tomorrow. I am sorry, especially since CEO Kim Jong-do is here as well. [Sound of Park Kyung-rim] But CEO Lee Jung-jae is right ne...
