By Lee Gyu-lee


Actor Song Kang-ho, who recently won the Best Actor award at the 75th Cannes Film Festival for his performance in the film, "Broker," said accolades have never been his goal in acting.
최근 제75회 칸국제영화제에서 영화 '브로커'로 남우주연상을 수상한 배우 송강호가 수상이 연기의 목표였던 적은 없다고 말했다.


"As an actor, the purpose of acting and taking part in films is not to win a trophy. The only goal is to communicate with audiences through a good piece of work," the actor told The Korea Times during an online interview, Wednesday.
송강호는 코리아타임스와의 화상 인터뷰에서 "배우로서 연기하고 영화에 참여하는 목적은 상을 받기 위함이 아니다. 유일한 목표는 좋은 작품으로 관객과 소통하는 것"이라고 말했다.


"Screening at film festivals and winning just happens to be part of that whole process of working hard and making a good film. I'm very thrilled and honored but this has not been my goal and won't be in the future. It always has been this way and nothing will change," he said.
"영화제에 출품되고 수상하는 것은 노력을 통해 좋은 영화를 만드는 전체 과정의 일부일 뿐이다. 매우 기쁘고 영광이지만 (수상이) 내 목표는 아니었고 앞으로도 아닐 것이다. 지금까지 항상 그래왔고 앞으로도 달라질 건 없다"고 말했다.


Recalling when his name was called as the winner at the festival's closing ceremony, he said it was more meaningful to share the moment with his family.
영화제 폐막식에서 수상자로 자신의 이름이 호명됐을 때를 회상하며 가족들과 그 순간을 함께할 수 있어 남달랐다고 말했다.


"This was the first time my son came with me (to Cannes) … I've never had a chance to bring him until now," he said. "So it was even more meaningful (to win the award) during this first time of going to Cannes with all four members of the family."
송강호는 "(칸에) 아들이 처음 같이 왔다. 지금까지는 아들을 데려올 기회가 없었다"고 말했다. 처음으로 네 가족이 한꺼번에 칸에 갔을 때 (상을 받게 되어) 더 의미가 있었다"고 말했다.


Japanese award-winning auteur director Hirokazu Kore-eda's drama film, "Broker," revolves around dry cleaner owner Sang-hyun (Song) and his partner, Dong-soo (Gang Dong-won), who steal babies that are abandoned by their mothers, who are unable or unwilling to raise them, and sells them on the adoption black market.
일본 감독 고레에다 히로카즈의 영화 '브로커'는 세탁소 주인 상현(송강호)과 아기를 키울 능력이 없거나 키울 의지가 없는 엄마들이 버린 아기들을 훔쳐 입양 암시장에 파는 그의 파트너 동수(강동원)의 이야기를 그린다.
