In the SBS Friday-Saturday drama 'Our Movie' (written by Han Ga-eun and Kang Kyung-min, directed by Lee Jung-heum), the production of the film 'White Love' is gaining momentum, bringing the connections between characters Je-ha (played by Namgoong Min), Da-eum (played by Jeon Yeo-been), Seo-young (played by Lee Sul), and Seung-won (played by Seo Hyun-woo) closer together. Let's delve into the evolving relationships among them.
First, director Je-ha and Da-eum, who initially connected over a terminal illness consultation, have now redefined their relationship as the director and lead actor of 'White Love'. Je-ha saw in Da-eum the perfect embodiment of the character he wanted to direct, and despite opposition, he pushed through with his decision. Overcoming the producer Seung-won's insistence on casting top actress Seo-young as the lead, Je-ha convinced everyone with just one test shoot scene, proving his choice of Da-eum was right. In return, Da-eum, fueled by Je-ha's support and trust, is passionately dedicating her remaining life to the movie.
Amidst their strong bond as director and actor, Da-eum's unexpected visit to Je-ha and her quoting a line from the movie, "Scene number 30. They kiss lightly," before kissing him, hints at another shift in their relationship. After sharing the secret of their terminal illnesses, this moment of intimacy has left audiences curious about what's next for Je-ha and Da-eum.
Da-eum, who had always idolized the star Seo-young, unexpectedly met her and created special memories by giving her a chance to relax. What seemed like a one-time encounter between a fan and a star turned into a reunion as fellow actors in 'White Love'. Notably, Seo-young, showing exceptional consideration, invited Da-eum to her agency's practice room for a script run-through. Moreover, when Da-eum suddenly fell ill, Seo-young not only took her to the hospital but also asked no questions about the incident.
However, the dynamics between the two women began to subtly shift concerning Je-ha. Da-eum saw Seo-young kissing Je-ha, and Seo-young noticed Je-ha's special look towards Da-eum. Their precarious friendship, balancing between support and rivalry, adds tension to the story.
Lastly, Je-ha and Seung-won, who debuted in the industry together, have built a friendship beyond their roles as director and producer. Seung-won, in particular, spared no effort to bring Je-ha, who had been reclusive for five years, back into the fold, securing him the director's position for 'White Love'. While Seung-won's ambition for success underlies his actions, Je-ha, too, is showing his determination by pushing for Da-eum as the female lead.
As 'White Love' begins full-scale shooting, the conflicting interests between Je-ha and Seung-won are set to intensify. The business relationship between the two men, who have gone from being close like brothers to director and producer, is drawing attention.
With deepening emotional arcs, the SBS Friday-Saturday drama 'Our Movie' is set to air its 5th episode on the 27th at 9:50 PM.
