Lee Jae-in met with Sports Chosun at a cafe in Samcheong-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul on the 29th and said, "The movie is in the process of being completed, so I had faith that it would be released."
Released on the 30th, 'High Five' is a movie about what happens when five people who accidentally acquire superpowers meet with those who want their superpowers, and director Kang Hyung-chul took the megaphone. Lee Jae-in plays Wan-seo, a Taekwon girl who had a superpower of power after a heart transplant in the play.
'High-Five' sees light four years after cranking up in 2021. Lee Jae-in "It's been a long time since I saw myself through the big screen. After watching the movie, I thought again about the reason why I was able to do this until now. I saw the ending credits go up during the press conference, but they went up for too long. There were so many people's names, especially many CG and graphic team staff. "I was thrilled to think that I played a good role in such an important and wonderful work."
'High Five' went through a difficult process from the beginning of its release. Lead actor Yoo Ah-in suffered a setback in her release in 2023 due to controversy over drug administration. Lee Jae-in often met with actors and directors after filming the movie. Rather, I think I saw him more often than when I was filming. While watching the director making the movie, I had faith that 'Oh, but since the movie is in the process of being made, it will be released someday," he said.
At the same time, it came to me deeply that the director said 'It's not a movie of one person '. I felt it when I watched the ending credits, and I felt it when I was filming with other actors. "Everyone worked hard on a hot summer day, but I really wanted it to be released."
