According to Japanese news Yomiuri Shimbun, the Korean movie version of “You’re my Pet” was initially scheduled to start filming in May. Its main actors (Jang Keun Suk, Kim Ha-neul, FT Island leader Choi Jong Hoon) and director Kim Byung Gon expressed their consolations and encouragement through their movie company to the people of Ibaraki prefecture, one of the earthquake-hit areas in eastern Japan.
The filming of the movie “You’re my Pet”, the Korean version adapted from the best-selling Japanese manga, had gained much support from state officials and enterprises in Ibaraki, an area known for its agriculture, and a big-scale press conference was held at Ibaraki airport on 3 March to announce the start of filming in Ibaraki in May. In the face of the unexpected natural disaster, besides conveying consolations from the actors and director, the movie company expressed that although the filming is currently scheduled to proceed as originally planned, there remains a possibility of change.
Below are the consolation messages from the actors.
