On November 29th, 'Soundtrack #1' announced the casting news of Park Hyung Sik and Han So Hee.

'Soundtrack #1' is a romantic music cinema in which two men and women who have been best friends for 20 years get to know each other while staying in the same house for two weeks. The heart-pounding romance story 'between love and friendship' is expected to deliver excitement to viewers. Director Kim Hee Won, who directed tvN's 'Masquerade' and 'Vincenzo', took the directing.

Park Hyung Sik takes on the role of Han Seon Woo, a rookie photographer, who plays a gentle and warm man with few words. Park Hyung Sik, who has been active in various works such as KBS 'What Happens to My Family?', KBS 'Hwarang', KBS 'Suits', and TVing's original 'Happiness', is considered an actor with both star and acting skills. In particular, Park Hyung Sik's charm in romance genres such as SBS 'High Society' and JTBC's 'Strong Woman Do Bong Soon' attracts more attention because it is unique.

In addition, in the Netflix original series 'My Name', as the leading lead role, she created an explosive syndrome by digesting powerful actions.

Above all, as it is the meeting of two actors who are called global trends, the romance chemistry they will complete is paying attention. A special and rich OST lineup that fits the special genre of 'Romance Music Cinema' is also expected to add strength to 'Soundtrack #1'.

Meanwhile, 'Soundtrack #1', a romantic music cinema starring Park Hyung Sik and Han So Hee, is scheduled to be released in 2022.

Hyun Bin is finally addressing the long-standing "ddongcha" (poop car) theory surrounding his character from My Name is Kim Sam-soon—and he's not holding back!

In an interview on the 19th with Star News, the beloved actor confessed, "I was wrong," responding to the reevaluation of his iconic role as Hyun Jin-heon from the 2005 hit drama. The "ddongcha" theory has been a subject of online debate for years, with many viewers critiquing Hyun Jin-heon’s character as overly arrogant and entitled.

Hyun Bin, who first rose to fame in My Name is Kim Sam-soon, took the time to reflect on the character that made him a household name. He shared, “I was just following the script; there were no personal opinions added to the character of Hyun Jin-heon. At that time, I knew Hyun Jin-heon was portrayed as a ‘bad boy,’ and the way it was expressed was different from today’s standards.”

With My Name is Kim Sam-soon now being re-released as part of Wavve's "New Classic" project, fans are revisiting the 2005 drama, and the character of Hyun Jin-heon is under fresh scrutiny. Director Kim Yun-cheol even admitted that the "prince on a white horse" and "bad boy" tropes that once worked in 2005 don’t quite match today's sensibilities, leading to edits in the 2024 version.

Hyun Bin humbly acknowledged his gratitude for his successful career and hit works, saying, "It’s wonderful and I am grateful to have so many hit works. I’ve been fortunate to work with amazing writers, directors, and actors. Thanks to them, I’ve received a lot of attention and love." He also shared a sense of humility, noting, “But I never know when that luck will come again."

Despite the dramatic shift in perspective on his character, Hyun Bin’s charm and dedication remain strong. Fans are eager to see him in his upcoming film Harbin (directed by Woo Min-ho), set to be released on the 24th.
