Actor Kang Ha-neul confessed what he felt when he first saw the movie title 'Opposition'.

Kang Ha-neul met with Sports Chosun at a cafe in Gangnam-gu, Seoul on the 8th and was fortunate that the movie was not a political movie"I want to let you know that there are other meanings through our movie"

Released on the 16th, 'Opposition' is a crime action film that conveys not only the interesting story of the Korean drug edition and the broker 'Opposition' who designs it, but also awareness of drugs, and director Hwang Byung-guk of 'My Wedding Expedition' and 'Special Edition' took the megaphone.




Regarding how he felt about seeing the work for the first time, he said "I had so much fun filming it, so I felt the speed I felt on the spot while watching the work. I couldn't see the scene where I appeared because my hands were a little cringe-worthy, but I enjoyed it because the seniors were so good."

Kang Ha-neul played the role of Lee Kang-soo, the opposition party that shakes the Korean drug market. He said of the acting-focused part "I didn't think of any one character. I wanted to make it a medium bat character that's not too nice, and not too evil"I wanted him to follow me out of curiosity, rather than being affectionate because he was seen as an attractive character in the audience's eyes.", he explained.

Then, when asked if there were any acting precautions as the subject of drugs, Kang Ha-neul said "The director didn't explain the tone control, and he said OK after two or three times "Opposition" is not a good story. However, if it was painted too evil, it seemed that people would have no desire to follow. So I tried to be good at the narrow ride between evil and good."




In addition, regarding the meaning of the title of the work 'opposition', I thought it would be okay at this time, but I was glad it wasn't (laughs). I thought it would be better to let many people know that the word 'opposition' is being used in a different sense than to keep saying it's not a political movie right before the movie's release"If the audience became curious about the word 'opposition' itself, I thought it would be fun to watch it."
