On September 17, Lee Min-jung uploaded a new episode on her YouTube channel “Lee Min-jung MJ”, featuring Park Chan-wook, Park Hee-soon, and Lee Byung-hun. The group shared stories from their careers, including behind-the-scenes moments from the Venice Film Festival.

During the conversation, Lee Min-jung asked Park Hee-soon whether he and his wife ever rehearse lines together at home. Park Hee-soon, who married Park Ye-jin in 2015, responded candidly: “That’s too embarrassing, so I just do it by myself.”

The mention of Park Ye-jin sparked excitement among fans, as she has not appeared in any projects since the 2020 film Josée and the drama Soul Mechanic. Known for her graceful yet powerful acting, Park Ye-jin’s absence has been felt in the Korean entertainment industry, making her husband’s reference to her all the more nostalgic.

Lee Min-jung chimed in with her own experience, revealing that she and her husband, Lee Byung-hun, once attempted script reading together but quickly gave up. “It was too funny, and then suddenly he started acting badly on purpose,” she laughed.

Director Park Chan-wook added humor to the discussion, saying, “That’s good training for learning how to react naturally to any co-star.”

Meanwhile, Lee Byung-hun, who typically avoids showing his face on YouTube unless channels reach over 500,000 subscribers, joked about his appearance without mosaic effects. “This is the first time I’m coming out without blur, but should I cover the camera with my glass?” he teased, bringing laughter to the set.

Although Park Ye-jin has not announced a return to acting, her name continues to draw attention whenever mentioned. Fans remain hopeful for her comeback, while Park Hee-soon continues to shine with his recent projects and international recognition.
