Director Kim Yong-wan of the Netflix series 『Dolpung』 expressed his desire for how the film wants to be remembered.

Coach Kim Yong-wan met with Sports Chosun at a certain place in Samcheong-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul on the morning of the 2nd and held an interview to commemorate the opening of 'Dolpung'.

The Netflix series 'Devastating' is a story about a confrontation between a prime minister who decides to make a presidential bid to overturn the world and a deputy prime minister for economic affairs who tries to stop him and seize power.



Director Kim Yong-wan, who directed the movie, is said to have immersed viewers in a single play by focusing only on solid scripts and characters themselves rather than visual techniques by showing delicate productions without genre limitations from comedy to mystery thrillers. Shortly after its release, 'Dolpung' also topped the category of 'Korea's TOP 10 Series' today.

On this day, director Kim Yong-wan responded to some opinions on the material hurdle of political drama, saying, `I hope you will focus on the belief of a human being and the fall of it rather than the era or background device." We then made efforts to refine (such concerns) from a directing perspective. Nevertheless, there are certainly parts that cannot be helped. Because it's a story about modern history. However, I believe it is right to leave the interpretive part solely up to the viewers. It can be interpreted differently depending on their values. Also, I think it is more valuable because I think it is good to interpret good works in various directions."



Next, when asked how he wanted 'Dolpung' to be talked about, he said "I hope that those who started watching for fun will eventually have political concerns and interests."," he replied. In the meantime, "I hope it will remain in the memory of the viewers as a work with a rich reverberation." If you start watching once, you will know what the reverberation is."
