Netflix will host a media interview with Choi Seung-hyun, a cast member of 'Squid Game 2' on the 15th. This is the first public appearance since the 2017 excommunication of Top's drug charges, and it is the first time in nine years that he has appeared in front of the media.
Choi played Thanos, a hip-hop survival runner-up and rapper who was buried in society over drug charges in 'Squid Game 2'. He, who has been controversial since the time of casting, drew the ire of viewers as controversy over his acting skills continued even after his release. There were also suspicions that Top, who had been listed on the list of 'Squid Game 2', was completely excluded from the promotional schedule without showing his face at production presentations and World Premiers.
Director Hwang Dong-hyuk conducted an interview last week and delivered a story about Top's casting, and at the same time, he was not very interested in it after that, so there was a war of words with fans, and I saw a comment that he would not return from Korea. I thought, 'You've worked a little harder'. Personally, I shouldn't do it. I couldn't throw it away because I couldn't forgive him" they say. Attention is focusing on whether Top will explain such remarks.
Top is a former rapper of Big Bang and was sentenced in 2017 for smoking cannabis before joining the army, and later completed his military service as a social service worker after being released from his position as a medical police officer. As a result, he was sentenced for smoking cannabis and even announced his retirement, and was criticized for making an easy return with 'Squid Game 2' on his back.
