My Dear Enemy
My Dear Enemy Hangul RRMeotjin haru lit. One Fine Day is a road movie starring Jeon Doyeon and Ha Jungwoo as two exlovers who reacquaint themselves while driving around Seoul. The film takes place over one rather uneventful day, and subtle emotions and chemistry between the actors propel the narrative. This is the fourth film by South Korean director Lee Yoonki.
My Dear Enemy is an exercise in subtle comedy, anchored by the delightful chemistry of the pitchperfect lead performers. Jeon Doyeon, as the sensible, eventempered Heesoo counterbalances the hysterical mother of a murdered child she played in Secret Sunshine, for which she was named best actress at Cannes in 2007. Ha Jungwoo, too, is winning as the compulsively charming, if unfailingly inept Byungwoon a role also in stark opposition to his previous outing as the serial killer antagonist in Na Hongjins The Chaser.About working opposite the reputed actress, Ha said Jeon quieted his nervousness with her easy manner. The two had actually appeared together three years before in the 2005 hit drama series Lovers in Prague, where Ha played a supporting role as the heroines bodyguard. I cant believe that I have risen to play opposite Jeon in such a short time frame, he said. While playing her bodyguard in the drama, there were many scenes where I was chauffeuring for her. I remember one particular scene where she was crying, and I was so moved I almost shed tears. Jeon is a great actress who inspires those around her even before the audience. Jeon said that she was the one who was grateful in the partnership. I didnt know wed be cast together because of our age difference Ha is five years her junior, but Jungwoo was able to come far because he was already a good actor back then. Jungwoo is a very versatile actor and really supported me. ........
