Park Bo Young and Choi Wooshik Dish on Friends’ Reaction to ‘Melo Movie’ Collaboration
At a press conference held on February 12 in Jongno, Seoul, excitement filled the air as Netflix offered a deeper look into its highly anticipated romance drama “Melo Movie.” The event brought together lead actors Choi Woo Shik, Park Bo Young, Lee Jun Young, and Jeon So Nee, along with director Oh Choong Hwan, to share insights into the production and build anticipation among fans.
A major highlight of the event was the undeniable chemistry between the two leads. Choi Woo Shik, who portrays Ko Gyeom – an aspiring actor-turned-film critic – mentioned that his close friends, including Park Seo Joon and Park Hyung Sik, expressed immense excitement about his upcoming collaboration with Park Bo Young. “They were all really excited. Not just my friends, but everyone kept saying how amazing she is—how talented, kind, and wonderful she is. I completely understand why, as she was a tremendous support on set, even helping with my mental well-being,” he revealed.
“I was captivated by the realistic love story and the stories of young people having their own dreams,” Park Bo Young added. “Since Woo Shik was cast before me, when I read the script, Gyeom kept appearing as Woo Shik in my mind. It was so easy to picture that I knew I had to take the role.”
“Melo Movie” tells the heartfelt story of four young individuals who navigate life’s challenges while chasing their dreams and yearning for love. The screenplay, crafted by Lee Na Eun of “Our Beloved Summer” fame, promises a moving narrative, while director Oh Choong Hwan, known for his work on “Castaway Diva,” “Big Mouth,” “Start-Up,” and “Hotel Del Luna,” lends his dynamic vision to the project. Notably, Park Bo Young plays Kim Mu Bee, a film director whose name—sounding like “movie” in Korean—reflects her complicated relationship with a cinephile father who always prioritized film above all.
With its compelling story, impressive cast, and visionary direction, “Melo Movie” is poised to captivate audiences worldwide, offering a refreshing blend of romance, drama, and personal growth in every episode. Fans and critics eagerly await the highly anticipated premiere, confident it will redefine modern romance.
