Director Kang Yi-kwan said at a press conference for the movie 'Virus' held at Megabox COEX in Samseong-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul on the 16th, "I wanted to make it a story that goes well with reality because 'Toxovirus' is an imaginary virus."
The movie 'Virus', which will be released on May 7, tells the story of Taek-sun, who is infected with a 100% mortality rate virus that falls in love for no reason, with Mossol researcher essay, longtime alumni Yeon-woo, and Lee Kyun, the only expert who can make a cure, and director Kang Yi-kwan took the megaphone.
Director Kang said, `There is one thing I thought was important about the background of the production"'Toxovirus' is an imaginary virus, so I wanted to make it a story that fits well with reality. I did a lot of research because I wanted it to be a viral story that makes sense scientifically. In the process, he discovered a parasite called 'Toxoplasma gondii', and since it is a parasite that specifically affects the brain, he came to envision 'Toxovirus'.
