On the morning of the 2nd, Disney+ held a production presentation for the new original series 'Polaris' (played by Jeong Gam-gyeong, directed by Kim Hee-won and Heo Myung-haeng) at a hotel in Jongno-gu, Seoul.

Kang Dong-won returned to the drama 21 years after 'Magic'. Kang Dong-won said, "Ji Jun Ji-hyun??I made a choice on the door. I really couldn't meet Ji-hyun strangely. So it was so nice to be able to do it together this time, and long breath... In the past, I was actually going to film a movie??There were many works that I had been filming for 8 months, so it wasn't that hard or anything. However, it is the difference between a little more filming a day. The preparations for the acting were all the same and I didn't feel much difference.
Pukguksong is a story about an unidentified special agent 'Sanho' (Kang Dong-won) who has built an international reputation as a UN ambassador facing a huge truth threatening the Korean Peninsula with 'Moonju' (Jeon Ji-hyun) who has to protect her as he pursues the background of the presidential candidate shooting. Director Kim Hee-won, who directed 'Queen of Tears' and 'Vincenzo', director Heo Myung-haeng of 'The Outlaws', and writer Shim Jung-kyung of 'Decision to Break Up' and 'Little Women' made headlines by writing. In addition, the meeting between Jeon Ji-hyun, who has built an international reputation as a UN ambassador, and Kang Dong-won, who plays the role of Cho, Lee Mi-sook, Park Hae-sook, Kim Hae-sook, Yoo Jae-myung, Oh Jung-se, Lee Sang-hee, Joo Jong-hyuk, and Won Ji-an are also expected to appear.
'Polaris' will be released for the first time on Disney+ on the 10th.
