Watch: Park Seo Joon And IU Share Passion And Laughter At Script Reading For New Film

Jun 04, 2021

The upcoming movie “Dream” (working title) has shared a behind-the-scenes look at the script reading!

“Dream” is directed by Lee Byung Hun (“Extreme Job”) and tells the story of a team of people trying out for the Homeless World Cup, an annual international soccer event.

Park Seo Joon stars as Yoon Hong Dae, a professional soccer player on disciplinary probation who becomes the coach of a ragtag soccer team. IU stars as Lee So Min, a producing director who is making a documentary about the team. Lee Hyun Woo will also appear in the film as one of the soccer players.

The first lines that appear in the script reading video are from a scene in which Yoon Hong Dae is shooting for Lee So Min’s documentary. Yoon Hong Dae is prickly and awkward in front of the “camera,” while Lee So Min is bright and optimistic no matter the situation. (Amusingly, since a lot of Park Seo Joon’s lines involve him complaining about the lines, the production staff added the subtitle: “Please don’t misunderstand. This is all in the script.”)

Jung Seung Gil and Park Seo Joon make the whole room burst out in laughter when their characters get into a hilarious shouting match. Park Seo Joon and IU also engage in some banter when Yoon Hong Dae complains, “Why didn’t you say he was this good?” and Lee So Min retorts, “You should know! You’re the coach!”
