Im Yoon-ah is the “lucky” actress who has had the chance to be Hyun Bin’s co-star multiple times in many Korean movie blockbusters.
After 20 years of joining the Korean entertainment industry, Hyun Bin has had the opportunity to cooperate with many talented actresses such as Song Hye Kyo, Ha Ji Won, Son Ye Jin, … in many hit dramas and movies.
Among all the female leads of Hyun Bin’s movie projects, Yoona is considered the “lucky” actress when many of her movies with the actor have achieved formidable success.
Hyun Bin and Yoona have worked together twice in two parts of the series “Confidential Assignment“. In particular, with “Confidential Assignment”, which was released in 2017, the film’s box office revenue reached 7.81 million tickets, equivalent to a revenue of more than $56 million.
Although it was only a commercial movie, the revenue of “Confidential Assignment” was considered the most successful among the movies released at that time.
Recently, Korean media reported that the movie’s sequel, “Confidential Assignment 2” has continued to achieve great results right before its release. As of September 2, the film topped three major theater systems in Korea in terms of pre-booked ticket rates, surpassing international hits such as “Top Gun: Maverick”, “Hunt”,…
Yoona was called “Hyun Bin’s lucky goddess” thanks to the great results that the two films of the “Confidential Assignment” series achieved.
In addition to the successful commercial performance, Hyun Bin and Yoona’s acting ability and excellent chemistry when working together in “Confidential Assignment” are also highly appreciated. According to audiences who have the opportunity to participate in the movie’s sneak show, the acting of the couple in the sequel is many times better than its previous part.
Previously, Hyun Bin collaborated with his wife Son Ye Jin in the movie “Negotiation” (2018). The film only earned $15.6 million – quite a success for a movie. However, this result did not meet the expectations set by the public for the couple Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin. At that time, the film received mixed reviews when its content was said to have wasted the name and talent of its cast.
The audience believes that there are many contributing factors to the impressive success that Hyun Bin and Yoona has achieved on the big screen. It can be seen that the projects they participate in all have huge investments in terms of funding, attractive content, and a methodical communication plan that is strong enough to attract the audience’s curiosity.
As for the case of “Negotiation”, the content of the film is said to be quite difficult to absorb and the acting of Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin is not carefully exploited.
It is known that, despite not being the “lucky goddess” of Hyun Bin in his big-screen projects, talented actresses like Son Ye Jin and Ha Ji Won all have an important role in Hyun Bin’s drama projects, helping him win a lot of Daesangs in this field.
According to information from the producer, the movie “Confidential Assignment 2” will be released on September 7. In addition to the presence of Hyun Bin and Yoona, the audience expects the two’s co-stars to also gather at the event to support the project.
