At the press and distribution premiere of the movie 'Veteran2' held at CGV Yongsan I'Park Mall in Ichon-dong, Yongsan-gu, Seoul on the afternoon of the 9th, Hwang Jung-min said, `I didn't know it would take so long to make the second movie.'
'Veteran 2', which will be released on the 13th, is a sequel to the box office hit 'Veteran', which attracted 13.41 million viewers, and it is an action crime investigation drama that pursues a serial killer who caused a stir in the world when the youngest detective Park Sun-woo joins veteran Seo Do-cheol's violent crime investigation team to catch the bad guys until the end.
Hwang Jung-min played Seo Do-cheol, a tough but passionate veteran of the violent crime unit. Returning to the second installment in nine years, he said "I didn't know it would take this long to make the second installment because the first installment went so well. I always had the character Seo Do-cheol on one side of my mind. There was a belief that I had to do the second film, and I talked a lot with the director" and "As the audience felt, I tried to give the impression that the second film came out in a short time following the first film"
As for the emphasis on acting in the first episode, Seo Do-cheol's child was in the third grade of elementary school, but after nine years, he became a high school student. " Seo-cheol's tone was bold, but I wanted to show him that he was living well as the head of a family. He also said, "I acted with the hope that the audience would think that it would be reassuring if there was a character named Seo Do-cheol around me."
