In August 2024, it ranked No. 1 in the global Top 10 movies (non-English) category three days after Netflix's release, and in the second week of its release, it was on the Top 10 list in a total of 43 countries, confirming the production of the sequel 'Cross 2', which was responsible for a cool and pleasant summer for viewers around the world, and unveiled the casting lineup.
From the welcome faces who showed pleasant performances in the previous episode to the colorful casting lineup of new trusted actors, it makes us look forward to 'Cross 2?'.
First of all, Hwang Jung-min, who showed an unexpected charm that has never been seen before by crossing the sides of a friendly husband and a former special agent in the previous episode, returns as Kangmu. After succeeding in the operation of catching General Park, Kangmu put down the appearance of a special agent and returned to his home and daily life. One day, he suddenly receives a secret mission from the president to recover the national treasure stolen directly from him and conducts a dangerous and critical operation of a lifetime with Mi-seon. Through the military mission to recapture national treasures with national pride, Hwang Jung-min is expected to show an upgraded performance of 'No Impossible Mission'.
Yeom Jung-ah, who played Mi-sun, an ace detective in the violent crime investigation team who was a former Asian Games silver medalist, and showed a new face that has never been seen anywhere, will also return to Mi-sun following the previous film and meet viewers around the world once again. Miseon is demoted from the violent crime squad in some case and goes down to a fishing village in the South Sea with her husband Kangmu. Miseon, who was bored with a peaceful life where no incident occurred, joins the operation to solve the theft of cultural assets with Kangmu. Yeom Jung-ah will present empathy by expressing Miseon, who is strong in leadership and ability in detective work, but is still sloppy in everyday life, with her unique humanity and charm. In particular, the cross between Hwang Jung-min and Yeom Jung-ah, who join forces in a more dangerous and larger operation after Mi-sun finds out that Kangmu is a special agent, makes us look forward to a new chapter in their fantastic chemistry shown in the previous episode.
Jeong Man-sik as a reliable colleague of Mi-sun and Kang Soo-dae team leader Sang-woong, a clumsy but indispensable team member of Kang Soo-dae, Cha Rae-hyung as Dong-soo, and Lee Ho-cheol also return with 'Cross 2'. As they played the role of scene stealers in the previous film and showed a licorice-like presence every time they appeared, the news of the three actors' casting confirmation also adds to the welcome.
From Yoon Kyung-ho as Cheon In-hak, the head of an unidentified organization that seeks cultural properties, to Lim Seong-jae as Doochil, a stolen father called the `Sommelier of the Doge,' Cha In-pyo as the president who visits Kangmu and Mi-seon to recover the stolen cultural properties, and Kim Kook-hee as the chief of staff, the president's strong right-hand man. The new cast lineup of trusted actors makes you realize the upgraded scale and fun of 'Cross 2'. These are the people at the center of the cultural property theft case, which is a key case of 'Cross 2', and will bring more tension and more fun.
In addition, director Lee Myung-hoon, who successfully presented his first feature debut through 'Cross', is also expected to write and direct 'Cross 2', capturing an exquisite combination of action and comedy with a witty production.
'Cross 2' is a story about Korea's cultural assets being taken from an unidentified organization and the story of Kangmu and Miseon and his wife jumping into a once-in-a-lifetime operation to prevent the leakage of cultural assets. Hwang Jung-min, Yeom Jung-ah, Jung Man-sik, Yoon Kyung-ho, Lim Sung-jae, Cha In-pyo, and Kim Kook-hee will appear, followed by director Lee Myung-hoon.
