Having a hard time due to school bullying controversy, Nam Joo Hyuk received good news after a long time
Although Nam Joo Hyuk fails to completely remove the suspicion of school violence, his new movie is gaining much attention.
Nam Joo Hyuk (29), will enlist as an active duty soldier this December, according to his agency Management SOOP.
At the beginning of this year, Nam Joo Hyuk, who was in the prime of his career thanks to the success of tvN’s drama “Twenty Five, Twenty One”, was suspected of being a perpetrator of school violence and was unable to actively engage in activities.
In response, Nam Joo Hyuk has consistently denied the allegations of school violence.
Nam Joo Hyuk, who has suffered a lot due to the allegations, has recently received good news after a long time, drawing fans’ attention.
Currently, the movie “Remember”, in which Nam Joo Hyuk takes on the lead role, is about to be released on October 26th. Ahead of its release, the movie is expected to achieve great success.
According to the integrated computer network of Korea’s Film Promotion Committee on October 24th, “Remember” topped the overall ticket reservation rate with 25.5% today (24th), two days before its release, proving high anticipation for the movie in advance.
“Remember” also beat all domestic and foreign rival films such as DC blockbuster movie “Black Adam” and the suspense thriller “Confession” led by So Ji Sub.
“Remember” tells the story of Pil Joo (Lee Seong Min), an Alzheimer’s patient who seeks revenge that he was planning for 60 years in search of the pro-Japanese who caused the death of the entire family, and In Gyu (Nam Joo Hyuk), a young man in his 20s who unintentionally gets involved in the revenge.
Viewers can feel the exhilarating catharsis that comes from the relentless condemnation of the pro-Japanese group and the buddy chemistry between Lee Seong Min and Nam Joo Hyuk.
In fact, viewers who watched the movie first through the press preview and the sneakshow left positive reviews such as, “This film will undoubtedly be No.1 for a long time”, “I lost track of time with laughter and emotion,” “My heart was pounding the whole time,” “The movie is fun, the acting is good. I’m going to watch it for a second time!”
Meanwhile, Nam Joo Hyuk, who debuted as a model in 2013, has been active for nearly 10 years. He is considered one of the top male actors in their 20s.
Nam Joo Hyuk has built a solid filmography by appearing in various dramas such as “Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo”, “Radiant”, “Startup”, and “The School Nurse Files”.
He is also active in movies. In 2018, he showed good acting skills by appearing in the movie “The Great Battle”, and in 2020, he worked with Han Jimin in the movie “Josee”.
Nam Joo Hyuk, who has a lot of talent, has also shown good performances in variety shows. In the past, he appeared on JTBC’s “Off to School” and showed off his easy-going and pleasant charm, which made him very popular.
