adding on to the list, i would think would be eternal monarch (Lee Min Ho and Kim Go Eun), especially since it would be Lee Min Ho's debut after his enlistment and Kim Go Eun's strong traction from Goblin. 

 

and Kingdom season 2 too! 

 

I want to stay hopeful binjin grabs the top honors this year but I was very disappointed that HB didn't win last year for MOTA..it was one of his career best performances and his acting was top notch and at par with CLOY, if not slightly better.

 

Fingers crossed either way!

HB said that once casting was finalized, he, SYJ, and the director met up to talk about the film at length. Filming (very tight schedule) only lasted for 2 months (June to August 2017).  They immediately started filming movies “Rampant” and “Be with You’ in August.  Both were extremely busy; all the acting projects need plenty of time to prepare.

 

On March 29th, 2018, it was revealed that some scenes required ‘reshoots’ because actor Choi Il-hwa (played an antagonist) had to be replaced (he admitted in February that alleged sexual harassment were true); the production company planned to finish by the end of April. 
 

Production report was held on August 9, 2018. Unlike TV dramas, movie involves many activities before and during its theatrical run (lasted for 2-3 months)

 

HB’s Esquire 9/2019 interview

Q: It's your second time meeting Son Ye-jin in a work since the movie Negotiation. I heard that actress Son Ye-jin inspired you a lot. I assume that’s why you are working with her again this time.

A: At that time, I thought how good it would be if I could work with her again. I didn't expect the opportunity to come so soon.

 

Q: Why did you want to work with her again?

A: While working with her on the project and doing movie promotion with her, I think we share a lot of similarities. As a result, we have many things we can talk about and we share similar views about a lot of things. When I was shooting <Negotiation>, we filmed in a completely different space using a binary filming technique, so we didn't have much time acting face to face with each other. But when I saw her acting on the small monitor, she showed me unexpected acting that got me curious. Why did she express it that way?

 

Q: Why did she express it in that way (meaning in the unexpected way)?

A: When an actor acts, of course, he will use what he has prepared to immerse into the role, and the acting will be uniquely realistic and you get a sense of thrill watching it. But sometimes, if you encounter an unexpected acting from the other party, you will also feel a sense of thrill. When you are not able to predict how the other person will act or express herself, and you find yourself responding in an unexpected manner to complement or to react to the other person, it is very charming and thrilling. I think I saw that from Ye-jin. So I had wished to work with her again. I thought when that time comes, I want to be able to do so by being in the same space, looking at the eyes and breathing in the same air. This time, I am able to do it.

 

Q: The acting that we see on the screen as an audience and the acting that you experience in the field acting opposite her must be rather different.

A: I think the scene that got me very amazed for the first time is that scene when I shot and killed Ye-jin's boss. Of course, Ye-jin's line was a curse, so I expected her to spit out or explode with the curse but she did the opposite. Instead, she restrained her strong emotions in saying her line. It felt like she was going to explode but she did not and she showed a different kind of emotions. It was very different from what I expected.

 

Q: I remember that scene where she was swallowing her sadness to the point where her eyes were bloodshot.

A: I think that if she hadn't read the script multiple times, and if she hadn't thought carefully about how to express her emotions, then it is not possible that she can show such an expression.I am sure she had thought of other ways of expressing herself. But in the end, she chose to express herself in that way. I also wondered how it would have been and how I would have reacted if she had chosen to express herself in another way.

 

Q: Conversely, did Son Ye-jin give her opinion about Hyun Bin’s acting?

A: This, I think you will have to ask Ye-jin about that. (Laughs)

 

 

 

Son Ye-jin focuses on the little things: For ‘The Negotiation,’ the actor played an active part in every detail of her character

Sept 28,2018


Son Ye-jin [CJ ENTERTAINMENT]

Actor Son Ye-jin is back with her third project of the year, “The Negotiation,” which was released last week. 

To keep audiences from getting tired of seeing her on screen, she’s made an effort to show a new look and play different characters in each project she is a part of. This time, she’s playing a professional negotiator working to save hostages. 

“I like new and different things,” said Son, in an interview with Ilgan Sports, an affiliate of the Korea JoongAng Daily. “There are things that agree with me and some that don’t, but my desire to try things is bigger.”

She said filming this movie was different from her previous experiences because it required her to focus on the smallest details of her performance while playing a professional who needs to listen carefully and make quick decisions in a negotiation. 

The following are edited excerpts from the interview. 

Q. Why do you think the movie has been getting good reviews?

A. After I was cast, I was pretty active in helping to change some parts of the script. Maybe calling it change is a bit much, but I talked to the director a lot and during that process, things were updated a little here and there. I think the script became more complete. 

What were you focused on while making the film?

[I focused on] whether the story in the beginning of the film lined up with the stories that come later. There were some points that were complicated for me, as an audience member, to follow. I wanted the movie to keep its characters but become a little looser, so we tried to make amends. 

Did you study how to be a professional negotiator? 

The director gave me five books that had cases involving negotiation skills, so I read them quickly. There are, of course, negotiators in Korea, but as far as I know, there aren’t so many who are specialized in the field. I heard there are some policemen who focus only on negotiating. I never got to meet them in person, but I learned about them through the books. 

What was it like on set?

I was very [cranky]. I didn’t like being on set. Usually acting requires actors to use their body to move or express feelings, but while filming this movie, I had to wear the same clothes in the same place, and sit in the same spot everyday. That made me feel really suffocated. I had to play my character and make very tiny and detailed [changes to my] actions. At first, I [believed I would] nail it, but after some time, I started to look like I was exhausted. The idea that [my character] could not be on anyone’s side and not want any casualties was a lot of pressure for me to play. I felt lonely. Usually no one helps when you are acting, although the staff might disagree if they hear this. But an actor is all alone when they are in front of the camera. This movie made me feel so alone.

Fine performances from Son and Hyunbin help to gloss over some logical loopholes in the film.  The former has a challenging role that requires her to display the intensity of the character through body language and she does it with ease. Hyunbin also impressively carries off the cold-blooded villain, although his character turns out not to be evil all the way through but rather humane and heartbroken.  The movie also scores high on music and cinematography. The contribution of these departments enhances the quality of the film. Overall, the JK Film production is a gripping suspense thriller and a great one-time watch. The movie is set to open Sept. 19.

[Thriller shows off new sides of familiar faces] In crime flick “The Negotiation,” actors Son Ye-jin and Hyunbin smoothly pull off their roles as a police negotiator and a cold-blooded villain.....Irrespective of the way the story unfolds, the two main leads showcase powerful performances, which help to gloss over the plot’s weakness. Son proves that she is not just a sweetheart, as seen in “A Moment to Remember” (2004) and “The Classic” (2003), but that she can be something more. And Hyunbin also successfully breaks away from his image as a prince charming to play a merciless villain, although his call for justice fails to completely separate the nice guy image that the actor has been holding on to.

When do you guys think HB & SYJ start dating??

 

I also think they started dating after Nego promotion. It seems like all the "drinking and buying food for each other" while filming and talking during promotion time did the magic. For both i thank Nego director 

during Nego promo interviews i guess HB was still looking for an oppurtunity to express his feelings, he seemed so shy and mesmerised 

Anyway if we consider MOA filming schedual in that timeline (may 2018 to june 2018 filming in spain and early august 2018 filming in Budapest, Hungary and Slovenia) i think both HB and YJ didn't have much time to start dating before Nego promotion, that's  why exactly right after MOA last episode our grocery couple was seen in LA having their private time 

[rookiehistorianAB]

Was there any proof that he left the MotA wrap up party immediately to fly to LA?

From my understanding, the wrap was on 12/30. There were reports he left early. SYJ may have been in Asia at this point?

That twitter account is absurb. There is no news or interview where he answer like that. We can report that account for a defamation content. If it happened during press video at that time every media platform for sure will release the articles.

But YJ got the green light for their Switzerland pic on her IG. 

Was it because YJ was leaning so close to him in the deleted pic? 
(this was discussed why it was removed pages ago lol!)

Because YeJin picture got the consent from the actor/CEO nim. My mind is telling he is there right next to her when she posted that. Probably it’s their way to wish xmas together to the fans.

Yejin donated 100million won to aid Covid-19 for Daegu Welfare Community Fund.  Article:

From the article I guess her parents still live in Daegu. Hopefully everything will be fine. It's kinda scary Covid-19 cases keep increasing in other country as well. 

[itspeanutbutterjellytime]

@Helena Thank you for sharing that interview again, it made me realise a little bit more about how HB thought of SYJ.

 

@jacdayans Interesting discussion! Hmmm... From HB's perspective, when he was asked about his first impression of her, he said that he knows her from her work and then when he got to meet her in person, he said she was sensitive or comfortable or something like that. I feel like she surprised him after they met, meaning during working on the Negotiation and that interview really showed, I think to the extent that he actually found her charming (and sounds like he was surprised not in a bad way I think, but maybe she wasn't what he expected knowing her only through watching her work on screen). So, even during shooting the film, he was intrigued by her, maybe even had a little crush. Then came the promotion, they got to spend more time together and that was when it became apparent that he actually began to like her, his body language certainly implied it! So, personally I don't think they were already dating during that time, but surely they were getting comfortable with each other (HB doing stuff that he would not normally do!!!) and made them realise that they probably wanted to spend time with each other outside of work. That led to all the rumours about sightings, etc.

 

The grocery incident actually seems like a big step and as mentioned by many others here in previous posts, it's pretty intimate. If you see casual celebrity couple sightings in Hollywood, sometimes their photos are being taken buying groceries lol so it's a coupley thing rather than two friends who happen to be abroad at the same place and at the same time kinda vibe. Anyway, it probably marked something of a serious consideration for both of them, like they've already established they are into each other so maybe they were at that stage of considering each other seriously? For HB to LITERALLY walk/fly the distance

 

And then the CLOY came, they obviously knew the risks of taking on the project, what with having the rumors beforehand but I think that meant that they really had a lot of faith in the project that they were willing to do it and most importantly, they wouldn't have pursued it if it didn't feel right for both of them. And this is when it seems that HB is perceived to be protective, of SYJ and possibly of what they currently have. It's quite sweet if this is all accurate, it means that they really mean a lot to each other and I hope that they will know how happy we are for them, when they are finally ready to tell us.

 

To sum up, SYJ charmed HB since they met on the Negotiations set and he's whipped ever since! As for SYJ's perspective, it's a little harder to dissect but somehow I can tell that it's definitely there for her as well. During the negotiation promo, she was still able to joke about people commenting that her and HB looking good together, it was the early stage for them being friends but friends who were attracted to each other? And then came CLOY, particularly during the Press Conference, she wasn't as playful as she was on the issue (perhaps cause there's some truth to it?), compared to like how she was in her SiTR press conference when the lead guy seemed quite openly showing his fondness for her. And also for all the other co-stars that she was linked with, isn't HB the only one who there's actual proof that they spent time outside the set? Which is always pretty telling, when they spend time outside of work. Weird, when I first got into this ship, I thought it was SYJ that was a bit more obvious being into HB, but I don't feel that way anymore. Not that I think one is more into the other or what, it's definitely mutual, it's just that one seems to be much better at being subtle than the other.... I guess that's why V@$t has to work a lil extra hard on this than SYJ's agency looooool.

Son Ye Jin donates 100 million won to support Covid-19 patients

Actress Son Ye Jin made a donation to support Daegu city fighting the Covid-19 epidemic.

On February 27, Community Chest of Korea said, "On February 26, Son Ye Jin's side has donated 100 million won to Daegu Social Welfare Community Fund to help patients infected with the Covid-19."

Son Ye Jin always makes a positive impact through various donation activities such as supporting terminally ill children and supporting tuition for low-income disabled children. The actress shared, "Daegu has a special meaning to me because it is not only where I was born and raised but also where my parents are living now. I feel hurt and regretful even more when watching information about Daegu via the news. More than ever, I hope the helping hands can really give timely support for low-income people as well as the prevention and treatment of the Covid-19 disease."

The donation amount is expected to be transferred to areas that are struggling with the Coronavirus to provide the necessary epidemic prevention equipment and treatment for low-income patients in Daegu.

Oh my. I re-read it again and decided that the person is probably a troll. Don’t feed the trolls’ actions. Just ignore - that’s the best thing.

 

If I may say anything, we should keep our fangirling clean and sensible, per this board  I saw some IG accounts even reminded not to directly tag their managements etc - I take it as a conscious decision made by BinJin fans to keep things as contained as possible. 
 

And ignore the trolls. Because ignorance is bliss.

@Loropetalum and @Helena thank you so much for the articles! Made me love her more  hehehe. And now Kim Daepyo’s statement last week makes better sense then: initially I just take it as well, it somewhat affects his filming schedule and he sympathized with the situation just like us. Now, I just want to say “awwwwwww” a little bit more. What an amazing ~close friend and golfing ~buddy indeed, this Grocery Boy.

If in anycase that HB is already in a relationship, wouldn't it be mentioned all over news media?

[Winwindy]

Hi everyone,

found this on IG, its cute...

[buffy128]

Hi.  I'm new to this thread, though I've been following Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin since their movie Negotiation.  Although I ship them quietly, I actually believe that both of them are in a serious relationship that's been going for just a little over a year already.  If I am mistaken that they are already a couple, then Hyun Bin seriously cares about Ye Jin very deeply.  If I may refer back to the grocery pics (in spite of the fact that it has been dissected over and over again), and some people say that they were just doing their groceries together, I doubt it very much that they would only be using 1 cart for both their groceries.  I also do grocery shopping with some of my male friends, but always, we do so with SEPARATE grocery carts.  Take a look at the contents as well.  There's a bottle of wine. It is pretty easy to guess that they were shopping together for an intimate dinner at his or her place afterwards.  

 

Also, after taking up my undergraduate and graduate studies in Psychology where we extensively learned how to "read" body language, it is also without a doubt that Hyun Bin is smitten with Ye Jin.  So take heart, fellow shippers.  There is some truth to what that NIS agent in CLOY said about their findings regarding Jeong Hyuk's attitude towards Se Ri.  It is but another example of art imitating life.
