Announcer: Cha Tae-hyun, Gong Hyo-jin, Kim Soo-hyun, IU. With the 4 lead actors in one place, everyone paid more attention.

Hyo-jin: We started this with light hearts, but as it all got bigger... Now...

Tae-hyun: It's heavy.

Hyo-jin: Heavy? So I don't think we had very many worries about it, any of us.

Hyo-jin: Or maybe Soo-hyun had some, right?

We wanted it to be very natural, so...

Tae-hyun: Look forward to it, please.

We're all hoping you like it. Please look forward to it.

Announcer: Gong Hyo-jin plays Tak Ye-jin, a tough entertainment PD in charge of Music Bank. She appeared in a chic poncho-style one-piece dress.

Hyo-jin: Producers always wear outdoor styles, ready to spend the night, that you can wear for a long time without looking ruffled

But as my character's a music program producer, she doesn't work overnight or outside and just gets information,

so I wanted to be more stylish,

and her hobby is shopping.

Announcer: In Producer, Kim Soo-hyun plays the newbie PD Baek Seung-chan, and appeared with a dandy look, wearing a dot-pattern jacket, black t-shirt and pants.

Soo-hyun: The reason I decided to do Producer was that my clumsy character is...

I wanted to see if I could play that kind of character using less intensity, so I think that caught my attention.

I can just let myself go...

I wanted to show that sort of thing.

Announcer: There is a lot of focus on Kim Soo-hyun's decision to play a clumsy character will play out.

Announcer: After some highlights from Producer were shown, Kim Soo-hyun was inundated with reporters' questions.

Reporter: Looking at the preview reel, it seems your eyes are somewhat bigger and rounder than before. I wonder if it's just your way of playing Baek Seung-chan, or whether it is an affectation to express the personality of newbie PDs.

Shock

Announcer: Kim Soo-hyun can't hide his surprise at being told his eyes seem bigger.

Soo-hyun: Are my eyes bigger? Um... How are my eyes bigger?

Announcer: In the end he breaks into laughter. He can't control his giggles and seems lost for words.

Woman: Please give us a close-up of his eyes. I think we can see how much bigger they've become.

Soo-hyun: Sorry.

Soo-hyun: I didn't intend to make my eyes seem bigger.

My character Bark Seung-chan is a new employee, so he has little experience

and there's a lot he doesn't know, so he feels everything a lot more.

Just like all new recruits do... Even if it's something small, like bringing coffee,

he feels it's a much bigger responsibility than it actually is,

so maybe that's why he's wide-eyed.

A feeling of success? Thank you.

Announcer: Gong Hyo-jin is facing her toughest drama role in her acting career. She also gave a small smile at Kim Soo-hyun's comments.

Gong Hyo-jin

Hyo-jin: I think that having a role where I can get angry and shout at someone helps me relieve stress.

I'm like a cat playing with a mouse with Kim Soo-hyun. Maybe he resented me? He was really nice to me after episode 1,

so I hope you don't misunderstand.

Being angry at someone isn't easy to do. But it is fun in its own way.

Soo-hyun: Be tough on me.

Tae-hyun: You're finished in China now. You won't be able to go there any more.

I don't shout at him.

Announcer: As expected, the fact that Producer has made a deal with a Chinese company for 20,000 dollars per episode, has been attributed to the power of having Kim Soo-hyun on board.

Kim Soo-hyun

Soo-hyun: I've put aside a lot to play this character, and I'm playing him in a relaxed way.

Of course I want Producer to do well.

Saying we're working in a relaxed way doesn't mean we take it lightly at all.

We're doing a lot of practice while making it

and we have high hopes for it. Please enjoy it. Thank you.

Announcer: 'Producer', the real story of entertainment and broadcasting. First broadcast on May 15th. We look forward to as entertaining a show as its cast is strong and diverse.
