At the production presentation for the Coupang Play series 'Newtopia' held at the Conrad Hotel in Yeouido, Seoul on the morning of the 7th, Park Jung-min said, `For the first time, I will be the main character in the director's work.'
'Newtopia' is a story about soldier Jae-yoon and a bear lord running to each other across downtown Seoul, where they were attacked by zombies, and Yoon Sung-hyun, the director of the films 'Watchmen' and 'Time for the Hunt', took the megaphone. Park Jung-min played the late soldier boyfriend Jae-yoon in the play.
Following his debut films 'Watchmen' and 'Time to Hunt', he shared his feelings about being reunited with director Yoon. Park Jung-min made his debut in the movie `The Director's Watchman, and he was the most grateful person in my heart for 15 years,' adding "There was no reason to reject the director's offer." Also, at the time of filming 'Hunt Time', the director said he wanted to try a comedy movie. I was also curious about the comedy the director directed, but he just came up with a suggestion. I was grateful to be the main character in the director's work for the first time, and it was meaningful."
Meanwhile, the Coupang Play series 'Newtopia' will be released for the first time at 8 p.m. on February 7.
