Hong Kong director Lee Dong Seung has exposed the rude behavior of top star Cecilia Cheung on set.
On the 21st (local time), veteran director Lee Dong Seung appeared on the ViuTV program Director·Door2, hosted by Jin Young Gyeom and No Jin Up.
Lee Dong Seung shared an absurd story from his time working with Cecilia Cheung. He voiced frustration over Cecilia Cheung’s calm demeanor on set and constant interruptions due to phone calls, which disrupted the shooting process.
At times, it was utterly absurd. For instance, he recalled when Cheung asked for help to call a tow truck because “her younger brother’s car had a flat tire.”
However, Lee Dong-seung didn’t just criticize Cecilia Cheung. He praised her acting skills. He shared, “(Cecilia Cheung) is very talented in acting. She immerses herself easily into the role.” He continued, “There was a scene in the movie where Cecilia Cheung had no money to buy vegetables. I told her, ‘Don’t sleep. You have to look very worn tomorrow.’ Cecilia Cheung said, ‘I’m going to party all night.’ Not only did she pull off the scene, but she also finished shooting very quickly, almost one take per scene,” he recalled.
