“Dear Hyeri” is a healing romance drama revolving around Joo Eun Ho (Shin Hye Sun) - an announcer who suffers from dissociative identity disorder after her sister goes missing and breaks up with her longtime boyfriend Hyun Oh (Lee Jin Wook).
Before the film aired on the evening of September 23, the actor duo had a photo shoot and chat with Elle Korea magazine.
Speaking about her co-star, Shin Hye Sun expressed, “This is my first time taking a couple photo, but I trust Jin Wook very much. When we were filming sweet flashback scenes in ‘Dear Hyeri,’ he would say, ‘Just trust me,’ and I would reply, ‘I’ll trust you and try.’”
Meanwhile, Lee Jin Wook said: “Shin Hye Sun is an actress with a great balance between technique, naturalness, and emotion.”
Previously, the actor revealed that he spent a lot of time discussing with his co-stars about how to best portray their years together and their story.
For Lee Jin Wook, portraying a romantic relationship with an ex-lover in a drama gives him a new feeling. Along with that, indirectly experiencing many love affairs in TV dramas helps him become more mature.
“In fact, if you look at it, many things in this world originate from love. In the film, a couple breaks up because of the flaws that formed in their hearts since childhood even though they love each other very much.
Their healing process is heartwarming. I can’t wait to see the comfort of a long-time couple on screen.”
Previously, Shin Hye Sun said that this drama reminded her personally once again that “true happiness comes from within.”
“From the first moment I received the script until every moment of filming, I was happy. I hope that those who watch the film can also find their own happiness,” she shared.
