At the press and distribution premiere of 『Hitman 2" held at CGV Yongsan I'Park Mall in Ichon-dong, Yongsan-gu, Seoul on the 15th, director Choi said "It is not an exaggeration to say that Kwon Sang-woo's comic action is the most unrivaled in Korea."
Hitman 2, which will be released on the 22nd, is a comic action film that imitates the new webtoon that was ambitiously presented by 'Jun', who quickly became a hit writer to 'Enthusiasm Writer', and director Choi Won-seop took the megaphone following the previous film.
'Hitman 2' is the follow-up to 'Hitman', which attracted 2.4 million viewers during the Lunar New Year holiday in 2020 and ranked in the top 4 in the box office that year. Director Choi said, `It's finally released, and it's a fun movie to watch with family, friends, and lovers during the Lunar New Year holiday. From the perspective of the creator, I am very excited."
Then, regarding the difference from the previous film, "The scale has grown overall," he said. "I wanted to show various attractions to the audience through action and art. In addition, it is not an exaggeration to say that Kwon Sang-woo's comic action is the most unrivaled in Korea. Even though it was a high-level action, we proceeded without a stand-in, and we did a good job of playing a fun beat, so we worked happily."
