Song Joong Ki Tears Up Talking About The Current Movie Industry

Actor Song Joong Ki shared his honest feelings about their recent movie release.

On January 12, the movie Bogota held a GV session (Q&A session with the director or actors with fans) at the movie theater.

On this day, actors Song Joong Ki and Lee Hee Joon attended the event with Lee Sung Min as a special guest.

Lee Sung Min started off by talking about how hard the movie industry is for actors.

When I arrived here, it broke my heart to see that the parking lot was empty. It seems like not many people are at the theater. There must be reasons, but it’s hard for actors without an audience in the theater. Especially when a movie is released, we feel like dying.

He continued by saying that this was something that actors had to deal with.

However, this is something that actors have to endure. Please give us strength so that our movie can finish well until the end.

— Lee Sung Min

Song Joong Ki nodded in agreement and gave his thoughts as well.

“As Lee Sung Min stated, Korean movies are having a difficult time these days. I’m honestly thankful that our movie is even showing in theaters right now. I’ve been working harder than ever to get our movie promoted.

The movie industry is challenging, but it’s our role to create quality content that will comfort the audience, make them laugh during difficult times, and give them strength.”

He started to choke a bit while making his last statement.

I’m tearing up a bit while talking. Anyway, thank you.
