◆Highlights of the movie:

Xinxin is from "The Romance of Dogs" Oh, the "female" protagonist. At the filming site, almost all the staff were on one side. All eyes were focused on Xinxin. Massages, body scrubs, hair dryers, heating machines... were all prepared for Xin Xin. The other heroine, Betsy, although "jealous", is also happy to share food with Xinxin, and she is also very happy. Xinxin not only won the love of the entire crew, but she was also a "big name". The crew not only customized a nanny car for Xinxin, but even replaced the solid floor with a blanket and the curtains with pink. This is also the first time in Korean film history.

In addition to being "cute and lovely", Xinxin is also a super edible "Arhat belly".

Probably because of the workload, Xin Xin is really good at eating and loves to eat. Not only does she have to eat delicious food after every scene, she even eats edible props, including blood plasma mixed with pigments. , after setting it up several times, Xinxin Meimei "accepted everything", which made the staff angry and funny. But thinking of his dedicated work attitude, who can bear not to let him eat something? When filming the film, Xinxin put in a lot more effort than others: running, running wildly on the Hanbukban Road in Busan City. In a ***8-hour shooting time, Xinxin was on the 1.2-kilometer road. It ran over and over again more than 20 times, including many running shots that showed it following the footsteps of its friends. This was done in this way. There are also some injury stunt scenes, which were all done by Xiao Xin carefully without even protective measures. Much appreciated by the staff.

Liu Shenghao, who plays Yi Chan, is young, but he has a background as an advertising model. In 2002, he became a well-known A-list child star after filming the movie "Going Home".

And little Jin Xiangqi, who was born in the millennium, is a very cute child. Although it is his first time filming, he is very eye-catching in the film. His innocent and sweet smile leaves a deep impression on people. .

◆Behind the scenes of the film:

This film can be said to be Korea's first dog movie I have seen dog-themed movies such as "Kidnapping the Doorstep Dog" and other movies that mentioned dogs, but they did not take the story of man and dog as the main line, and used the story between man and dog to show a story that has nothing to do with dogs. In this world of intrigue and simplicity, dogs are just used as an auxiliary to intersperse the story. "The Romance of Humans and Dogs" is a beautiful story that allows people to appreciate the innocent world of children and start to reflect on whether they are sometimes too philistine. You have to be careful even when making friends. Can friends understand and trust each other, and be tolerant when conflicts arise? Let's feel introspection in the film together!

Korea's representative "beautiful dog" - "Dada" (Labrador retriever/female/4 years old/height 76 cm/weight 30 kg)

The protagonist "Xinxin" The draft is the most important hurdle. South Korea does not have a dedicated training base for performing arts dogs like foreign countries. "Dada", which has won many training competitions, burst into people's eyes like this. "Dada" is not only physically strong, but also very loyal to his owner. After being drafted, "Dada" underwent a variety of arduous training and finally appeared in the movie "The Romance of Dogs".

Yi Chan, an 11-year-old boy with a hot temper and stubbornness

Chan, an 11-year-old boy, has a fiery personality. Compared with other children of the same age, he knows the world is hot and cold too early and hates everyone. He is a somewhat cynical but very independent guy with a strong sense of self-esteem. He believed he could carve out a niche for himself. On the other hand, they also long for the recognition and care of others.

"New Korean National Brother" Yoo Seung-ho

A child actor who won the hearts of nearly 4 million people in South Korea in 2002 with the life movie "Going Home" in which he and his 77-year-old grandmother went from stubbornness to tenderness. Liu Shenghao, this time formed a fate with the ghost Dada. ***Co-starred in "The Romance of Dogs". He said that it was his first time to act with an acting dog, and he felt a little burdened. However, he saw that "Dada" was very compatible with him, and he continued to get in touch with "Dada" during filming breaks. They had a perfect understanding of each other when acting, and gradually gained confidence. I believe that such efforts will be rewarded.

The ignorant slug Sui

The ignorant slug Sui only believes in his know-it-all brother. He can't do anything without his brother, thinking that his brother is everything to him. "Xinxin" is your reliable friend. Recording the wrong things done by her brother and herself every day and collecting fines are all her work every day. The lovely Sue is always discussing with "Xinxin" how much of a fine should be imposed and how much should be subtracted from the fine.
