In addition, the film "A Hundred Slices of Memories" received positive feedback from the audience about the classic setting, footage with strong cinematic content, soundtracks or the natural acting of the cast.
Previously, sharing about the work, director Kim Sang Ho emphasized that instead of just depicting the story of that period, he wanted to depict the lives and emotions of those who lived through that period.
The main theme of the film is youth, friends in their twenties who are still clumsy with the world, they may not see that they are mature, but through experiences, they gradually change and grow up. That is the message we want to convey, he said.
Regarding the cast, the director highly appreciated the fact that they were all carefully prepared for their transformation.
For example, Kim Da Mi and Kim Sang Ho praised her for bringing authenticity and clarity to the role; while Shin Ye Eun had great instinct and naturalness; Nam Joon was stable and brightened up the atmosphere on set.
Sharing about the work, Kim Da Mi said that when reading the script, she felt like each character was existing, so "she also wanted to live in that world".
It was like a time when when when it came to love, everyone was impatient and full of dreams. I was very happy to experience that period and indirectly entered the job of checking bus tickets to realize how hard this job was.
For Shin Ye Eun, she was especially touched by the way people at that time loved passionately and lived fully, putting aside their self-respect to live without regrets.
I have asked previous generations about their memories and realized that many people have beautiful memories of the bus staff at that time. That was when I realized that this story could touch the hearts of many audiences, the actress added.
With positive initial reviews, the film "A Hundred Slices of Memories" is expected to make a difference in the upcoming broadcast journey.
