The Musical Interview
I: At that time, you were quite busy acting on dramas, right? And yet, you still found the time to write a script.
GHS: (laughter) Actors are extremely busy at one period then becomes unemployed the next. Most actors experience at one time or other the distress of ones status of not having a next job not en queue. To prepare for such situations, I had to turn to and find myself. I felt that if I try and prepare something new for myself, I can overcome such possible periods of anxiety and depression. But, because I tend to be timid and not so adventurous, I wondered what others may say if I do. I felt that people may criticize me and say, <What ? Who do you think you are? Why is GHS doing something like that all of a sudden? > It is true that I was afraid of such pouring of criticisms. It is because they do not know that I have been drawing and writing for so many years. But, what is so intriguing is that since I have been doing these activities, many acting scripts that come to me are about musicians and painters. <THE MUSICAL> is an example.
I: I know that not everybody supported/praised your activities. Now what do you think of such negative views?
GHS: I am sorry that I keep on referring to age, but when I turned 25, I started to think what will be will be. Whether positive or negative, it is a very result-oriented type of work. Those who only dreamed about doing things became stimulated by me. Those who criticized me (for having no professional background) felt that they could do better than I can and actually produced their resulting works. When doing these works, we often run into capital fund problems. There are many people who felt that I could do these things because I have money. However, actually, I started to work on my crafts even before I had money. For my ball pen illustrations, all that I needed were paper and a ball pen. And, if one really looks around, one can find many galleries to exhibit ones work for free. If I did something that cost money, it was to build a gallery in Surae Village and people can also exhibit their work there for free. If a person truly give at least one hour of his/her time per day, there are so many things that one can do. I have always worked and practiced this far with a belief that I can do it if I really try.
I: Even so, there had to be something that were easier just because you are a well-known actress?
GHS: there was a time when I did have such arrogant and impudent thoughts. Because I am GHS, I thought it would be easier to get investors. However, there was lot more negative opinions than positive ones. I also heard that people may show interest but they may not buy tickets. I think I received more negativity from those who had been preparing their movies for a long time, even more so than from those who majored in making and directing movies. Sometimes I wished that I were just GHS and not actress GHS. Of course, I think I was treated more kindly than other first-time directors. There was a great gap between the positive and the negative. In a way, I guess that makes the world fair.
I: What have you gained by doing various types of activites?
GHS: Well, first, I feel like I am living my life well. I feel content that I am working this much everyday and leaving a record of it for me to see and to feel that I am not just playing around at others expense. Most importantly, I feel glad about enjoying what I do. It may be important that others acknowledge my work, but I feel there is great value in just enjoying what I do. These days, I feel like everybody is a critic. One can get stressed from criticisms. However, I think it is better to just try to get what I need out of the criticisms and then basically think about how much I really enjoyed the work. Even this room, it is fine for people to just come in, take a look and say, ah, I hear this is GHSs room. It is possible that someone may get an idea for interior decoration after looking at the way the threads are connected. But it is perfectly OK to just take a look.
I: Besidees this (Design Korea), do you have other projects going on? How is the script about vampires going so far?
GHS: I did complete the script but I felt that summer time would be better so I postponed it. Recently I completed a script called <Peach Tree> which is a family movie centering on people with handicaps. It is a fantasy. I am at the point of casting for the roles.
