While Season 2 of "Hound Dogs" was a global hit three days after its release, actor Lee Sang-yi expressed her thoughts on the possibility of Season 3.

At a cafe in Samcheong-ro, Jongno-gu, Seoul on the 8th, I met with actor Lee Sang-i of the Netflix series "Hunt Dogs" Season 2 and talked about the work.

Season 2 of "Hunt Dogs" is a story about Gunwoo (Woo Do-hwan) and Woojin (Lee Sang) who beat up a gang of heinous illegal loan sharks, and another exhilarating straight hook against a global illegal boxing league dominated by money and violence.

According to Netflix's Tudum TOP 10 website, Season 2 ranked second in the global TOP 10 series (non-English) category with 5 million viewers (viewing time divided by the total running time of the work) within three days of its release. On top of that, from just after its release to today, it ranked No. 1 in the "Korea's TOP 10 Series" and was also on the top 10 list of 67 countries around the world.

On this day, Lee Sang-i said, "I have a personal desire to go to the first place, but I'm so grateful for the second place," adding, "I watched the work before it was released, and I didn't watch it after it was released. Looking at it again, I thought I would see only the disappointing part. But it kept popping up on YouTube algorithms," he said.

Lee Sang-i, who starred in his first season-based work with "Hunt Dogs," said, "I'm so grateful that I was able to come out because a lot of viewers watched it. It's my first season-based drama, and I want the season to last longer like overseas dramas," he said.

Season 2 of "Hound Dogs" ended with a hint of season 3, and Lee Sang-i said, "I don't know. We don't have a decision," he said, but added, "There was a cookie video that hinted at season 3, but I didn't know well at the time of filming. But no matter who looks at it, I think it's going to be season 3."

"In fact, personally, I'm an alumnus of Han Ye-jong with actor Lee Hyun-wook, who appeared as a soldier in the cookie video, and I'm close with the military as well. If we meet in season three, I wonder how we will meet," he added.

Lee Sang-i convincingly depicted the changes that came to Woo-jin last time, breaking down into Gun-woo's spiritual support and eternal family "Woo-jin." "This season was the same role as the libero of volleyball," he said. "The coach said that all attacks start with libero, and Gunwoo talked about it as a point of contact in every relationship from Woo-jin to Villain."

He said, "In season 1, I made my body properly and had about 7-8% body fat. I didn't measure InBody this time, but I think I came out with the body I wanted very quickly. The shooting started in December last year and ended around summer last year, but I think I started exercising or building my body from March to April. "In the beginning, because I was a coach, I didn't have to expose my body, and I started building my body with a feeling of a latecomer," he said.

He said that it was not difficult to make his body because he usually managed it thoroughly, but that the action was very different from season 1. He said, "I'm originally right-handed, but Woo-jin is a left-handed boxer. I learned a lot of practical boxing other than boxing in action school. Woo-jin doesn't even have his old fighting skills, and he's the style of "Let's aim for one shot." It was the director's intention, and I think that's well expressed. Rather, I think it would have been a little strange if I had fought well," he said.

He then said, "Since he has a slick personality and is playful, I studied actions aimed at counters that can touch the opponent's mental state. I also tried to express it well because Woo-jin hurt his hand," he added.
