Season 2 of "The Angry People" returns with Yoon Yeo-jung and Song Kang-ho, the "virtually the greatest actor on Earth," in a darker Korean color.

On the morning of the 7th, a video press conference was held between director Lee Sung-jin and Charles Melton of Netflix's "Angry People" Season 2.

Manager Lee Sung-jin said, "I'm happy to be back for season 2. I put a lot of effort into this work. I hope the next music will be better like Radiohead," he said. "Even before I wrote the first word of the script, I thought I wanted to include much more Korea this season. Korea has already grown bigger in my life. "I came and went to Korea often, and I got a glimpse of the life of the upper class in Korea while filming the music video of BTS RM," he confessed.

Season 2 of "The Angry People" is a story of a young couple witnessing a shocking quarrel between their boss and his wife at a country club where privileged people gather, and then a fierce struggle of conciliation and pressure between the two couples and the club's owner, Korean billionaires. This is the second season of "The Angry People," which won awards at leading ceremonies such as the Emmy Awards, the Golden Globe, and the Critics' Choice Awards.

Director Lee Sung-jin said, "I graduated from elementary school in Korea and elementary school at that time. It was a different life than then. The world was so fascinating when I hung out with Korean idols, chaebol CEOs, etc. I made it with the thought that I wanted to take it with those parts and Korean parts."

In Season 2 of "The Angry People," actors Yoon Yeo-jung and Song Kang-ho were cast as couples, drawing attention. Song Kang-ho appeared as Yoon Yo-jong's second husband.

Yoon Yeo-jung said in an interview with foreign media last year, "The role of the billionaire chairman in the drama 'The Angry People 2' is 20 years younger than her husband. It was really interesting. Korean actor Song Kang-ho, have you heard of it. He appeared in the movie Parasite and is with director Bong Joon-ho everywhere. "I think he could be my second husband," he said, adding, "He is 20 years younger than me (in the drama), but the age difference between me and Song Kang-ho is still 20 years old."

Director Lee Sung-jin said, "I thought about setting a goal to the highest level while doing this work, and I thought about casting Yoon Yeo-jung and Song Kang-ho, the greatest actors on the planet as well as in Korea. But in fact, actor Song Kang-ho refused at first. When I sent the script, he politely refused, saying, 'I don't know if this role suits me, I don't know if I can do it,' and added, "So I called Yoon Yeo-jeong and said, 'I'm sorry, teacher. He said he wouldn't.' Thankfully, Yoon Yeo-jeong called actor Song Kang-ho herself and said, 'You're the best actor. He convinced me that I can do this. That's why we're together. Thank you Yoon Yeo-jeong teacher. I really wish I hadn't been an actor Song Kang-ho and Yoon Yeo-jeong in that role," he said.

Director Lee Sung-jin said, "The scene where the two appear for the first time in Korean film history at the Amore Pacific Building is the highlight of my career. Director Bong Joon-ho visited as a surprise when he filmed the scene. Poke my side and say, "Are you going to film this frame like this?He joked with me. I think that scene will continue to be memorable," he said with a smile.

On this day, director Lee Sung-jin expressed his affection and respect for Korean film directors such as Bong Joon-ho and Park Chan-wook. When Charles Melton, who was present with him, praised him, "Lee Sung-jin is great enough to be called the son of Park Chan-wook and Bong Joon-ho," director Lee Sung-jin said, "You shouldn't say that." It's blasphemy," he said shyly.

Charles Melton, who joined the season, said, "My mom is a Korean-American immigrant. "Thank you for making stories of Korean people living in the United States, including me and the director," he said. "Lee Sung-jin is amazing enough to be called the son of Park Chan-wook and Bong Joon-ho. Director Lee Sung-jin brought Korean art to the West. There is no limit to the art of director Lee Sung-jin. It tells the story of identity and the story of a human being compared to capitalism. Thank you so much for letting me take on this role, and you let me show my acting by touching Korean roots," he said.

Asked how he felt about working with actors Yoon Yeo-jung and Song Kang-ho, Charles Melton said, "I think I owe a lot. I was able to work with the best actors. Actor Yoon Yeo-jung and actor Song Kang-ho are acting face-to-face, and it was a tremendous experience just to be able to see the two of you acting in person," he said. "Actor Song Kang-ho has that presence. You were so amazing even if you didn't say anything else. I said a certain line and made an NG because actor Song Kang-ho laughed, but it was the best moment of my career. Actress Yoon Yeo-jeong really exudes indescribable deep dignity. It was a magical moment that could not be explained in words. Both of you are the best."

Attention is drawn to what the second season of "The Angry People" will be like, with the Korean color becoming darker and even the best actor Yoon Yeo-jung and Song Kang-ho joining.

Meanwhile, Season 2 of 'The Angry People' will be released simultaneously around the world on the 16th.
