[News] Kim Myung-min races in 'Pace Maker'.
Cr. - javabeans
The Method man strikes again: Kim Myung-min takes on the role of an elite-level runner for his new movie Pace Maker, and it looks like he’s dropped yet more weight to do it. Eep!
I’d thought he’d lost all the weight he could afford to lose (and then some) for his movie My Love By My Side, and was relieved when that was over, for the sake of his health. But here he is, looking gaunt again to act the role of a pace maker, who participates in the first part of a marathon to keep the pace for its frontrunner, and then drops out. But he dreams of being a contender himself; ergo, movie.
Apparently Kim injured his right leg while filming another one. Coincidentally, his Man-ho character in Pace Maker also has a right-leg injury. I’ve read enough about Kim’s insane Method acting to feel relieved that his injury came first, lest he pursue yet more masochistic activity in the name of realism.
Kim called the movie “a very hopeful and touching human story.” You know what would give me hope? If he started EATING again! Sigh. Filming began on Pace Maker on April 11, and plans to release in the latter half of the year.
Below, he trains for the role:
