Hyun Bin explained the reason to watch 'Made in Korea'.

Why should Hyun Bin watch "Made in Korea" at 'Disney+ Original Preview 2025' held at the Cinderella Ballroom at the Disneyland Hotel Conference Center in Hong Kong on the 13th? Because he's handsome? Let's see and talk." Hyun Bin, Jung Woo-sung, Woo Do-hwan, and Woo Min-ho attended and told stories about the work.

"Made in Korea" is a story of a man with ambitions for wealth and power, a prosecutor who threw everything out to stop him, and a whirlwind of the times. It is a spin-off of the movie `The Drug King' and is Woo Min-ho's first series production, including `The Drug King' and `Spring of Seoul`Insiders`Halbin. 'Made in Korea', which drew attention even with a production cost of KRW 70 billion, has already confirmed season 2 before the release of season 1.

Hyun Bin plays Baek Ki-tae, a character with ambitions for wealth and power. Hyun Bin added "With the historical background and fiction, a new and solid story has been created. It became the biggest factor in doing this work."

Then "Each character has its own story, and they have something in common. I hope you can enjoy the emotions that appear in the desire and conflict with individuals through the series" he hoped.

He also showed off his breathing. Director Woo met with Mr. Hyun-bin 'Harbin' That's when we worked together. We ate a lot and drank together. I was wondering if I could make something other than the script, and Hyun Bin said "It's good in that I meet the director in a series, not a movie. I hope you enjoy our work in the winter"The director is quick to make a decision. If you are satisfied with it, you can also sign an OK sign. We had a good chemistry while filming."




Last but not least, Hyun Bin said, "Because you're handsome? Let's see and talk."

The Disney+ original 『Made in Korea" will be released for the first time on Dec. 24.
