"Pavane" actor Moon Sang Min revealed an overseas filming episode with Ko A Sung.

On the morning of the 25th at a cafe in Samcheong-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul, an interview was held with Moon Sang Min, the lead actor of the film "Pavane."

"Pavane" is based on the original novel "Pavane for a Dead Princess" and tells the story of three people who had closed the doors of their hearts and, by becoming light for one another, confront life and love. It ranked No. 1 on Netflix in Korea and, within three days of release, recorded 2,000,000 views (the number of views divided by the work's total running time), rising to No. 7 in the global top 10 non-English films institutional sector.

Moon Sang Min debuted in 2019 with the web drama "Christmas: four reasons you hate it" and appeared in "My Name," "Under The Queen's Umbrella," "After School Battle Activities," "Wedding Impossible," "Cinderella at 2am," and others. This year he rose to stardom through the KBS2 historical drama "To My Beloved Thief," and in his first leading film role in "Pavane" he passionately played Kyung-rok, a young man who gives up his dream of becoming a dancer and lives in reality.

After working with Ko A Sung for the first time, Moon Sang Min said, "It was my first time seeing a 10 million viewer actor, and being together was deeply moving," adding, "I will never forget meeting the character Mijeong for the first time. When we met at the office, she was Mijeong herself. You could say my worries about Kyung-rok were resolved. Mijeong nuna saw me as Kyung-rok. Being able to work with such a senior is a blessing. If Mijeong hadn't existed, if A Sung nuna hadn't existed, Kyung-rok would not exist. If A Sung nuna hadn't existed, Moon Sang Min's Kyung-rok would not exist."

The two went abroad for location shooting to film the aurora in Iceland, and at that time director Lee Jong Pil and the three of them traveled in one car. As director Lee Jong Pil did not have a driver's license and Moon Sang Min only had a dormant license, Ko A Sung took the wheel herself.

Moon Sang Min said, "I feel very sorry to nuna about that. At that time I only had a dormant license. So I wasn't in a situation to drive while taking nuna and the director. So I thought I should take on something else," adding, "When we left Incheon Airport for Iceland, the two of us left without a manager. Because nuna is an actor and a celebrity, there could be dangerous situations, so I decided, 'I'll assist her! I'll also provide security.' At the airport people were passing by, and I kept looking over for no reason. Nuna didn't even know I was assisting her," he said, drawing laughter.

He continued, "I also received help from nuna. When I assisted her, nuna helped with roaming. (laughs) After arriving in Iceland we filmed for a week and visited four to five places. Nuna drove on rough roads, and the director and I sat in the back seat and only cheered 'Ko A Sung fighting.' After that I mastered driving. I thought, 'This is not it,' and now I have become the best driver," he said with a laugh.

Meanwhile, "Pavane" was released to more than 190 countries around the world through Netflix on the 20th.<
