On the morning of the 12th, a production presentation was held at the Ramada Seoul Sindorim Hotel in Guro-gu, Seoul, for the LG Uplus STUDIO X+U mid-form drama 「The Hunter with the Mess」 (planned and produced STUDIO X+U, production soul creative, directing Junghoon Lee, script Cho Han-young, Park Hyun-shin, Hong Yeon-i, and Jin Se-hyuk). Actors Park Joo-hyun, Park Yong-woo and Kang Hoon and director Junghoon Lee attended the meeting.
'The Hunter with the Mess' is a crime thriller in which Se-hyun of the autopsy, who discovered the familiar way of murder of his father and serial killer 'The Tailor', who thought he had died 20 years ago on the autopsy table, goes out to find him before police Jeong-hyun in order not to fall prey to his father. Park Joo-hyun as Seo Se-hyun in the autopsy of a sociopath genius with a killer instinct, Park Yong-woo as Yoon Jo-kyun, a psychopathic serial killer who is serious about dissecting the human body, and Kang Hoon, who played Jeong Jung-hyun, a powerful leader who believes in human goodness, are all predicting an attractive character play and explosive acting ensemble.
Park Yong-woo "The attitude toward acting these days is to express the emotions felt in the field without preparing as much as possible"But this role is a psychopath, so we had to prepare thoroughly."."
`This time, I've seen a lot of documentaries about real serial killers like Jeffrey Dahmer and Charles Manson,' he said. `They had something in common that was less empathetic in their relationship with others, and it was impressive to see them practice their facial expressions in front of a mirror and mimic the socialization process", he explained. He added "I used this characteristic as an homage and melted it into the character."
Park Yong-woo will play the role of a serial killer 'Yoon Jo-kyun', who has been hiding for 20 years in the play, pretending to be an ordinary laundry owner and showing an eerie duality of hiding the reality.
'The Hunter with the Mess' will be released on U+TV, U+ MobileTV, and Disney Plus, a global online video service (OTT) on the 16th.
