Actors Ju Young-woo and 2PM's Taecyeon supported singer Roy Kim. Roy Kim sequentially released short films for his new single 'Cry Out Loud,' with Ju Young-woo participating at 6 p.m. on the 21st and Taecyeon at 6 p.m. on the 22nd. As content that expressed the song's sensibility in advance through the actors' acting and narration ahead of the October 6 comeback, the two different styles of expression added to the interest in the new song. Ju Young-woo and Taecyeon fully immersed themselves in the emotions hidden in 'Cry Out Loud.' Rather than flashy direction, they focused on facial expressions, eyes, and voice, maximizing the emotion conveyed by the song and creating a deep lingering impression even within the short video. The two expressed the lyrics as narration: 'Cry out loud, my dear. Cry out loud, behind me. Don't mind it, hide inside me, and cry out even louder,' and their voices, which built emotion sentence by sentence, combined with delicate acting to three-dimensionally convey the song's mood, as if they were willing to joyfully embrace even someone's sorrow. Above all, for the same passage, Ju Young-woo showed a calm expression, while Taecyeon showed a poignant feeling as if holding back tears, each presenting a different interpretation and giving different kinds of emotion and immersion. At the moment the narration ended, the melody of 'Cry Out Loud,' sung by Roy Kim himself, burst powerfully on top of the emotions that had gradually risen, guided by the two voices, instantly raising the atmosphere to its peak. The story steadily built by the two actors' performances overlapped with Roy Kim's vocals, bringing a powerful emotional release. 'Cry Out Loud' is a new song Roy Kim will present in October for the third consecutive year. Expectations are rising for how much emotion the full version of this new song, partially unveiled through the passionate performances of Ju Young-woo and Taecyeon, will deliver. It will be released at 6 p.m. on October 6. • Director Ahn Pan-seok's posthumous work 'Love Doctor' releases two mood teasers...
