'Wild Thing' actors revealed the reasons they decided to join the cast.

'Wild Thing' (directed by Son Jae-gon) held a press distribution screening at Seoul Songpa-gu Lotte Cinema World Tower on the 18th. Following the screening, a press conference was held with director Son Jae-gon, actors Kang Dong-won, Park Ji-hyun, Eom Tae-gu, and Oh Jung-se in attendance.

'Wild Thing' is a comedy film about the three-member mixed dance group 'Triangle,' which once dominated the music industry but was unexpectedly involved in an incident and disbanded overnight, as they make a reckless challenge to seize a second chance at comeback after 20 years.

'Wild Thing' features Kang Dong-won as Hyun-woo, the leader and dance machine of 'Triangle,' while Park Ji-hyun and Eom Tae-gu play the group's vocalists 'Domi' and rapper 'Sang-gu,' respectively. Oh Jung-se stars as the tragic ballad prince 'Choi Seong-gon.'

'Wild Thing' star Kang Dong-won stated, "I found the script fun and took on the challenge thinking of it as another action film." He added, "In my case, I was an idol singer who started as a breakdancer, so I spent a tremendous amount of time learning breakdancing. That became a special trait of the character in the film, and I wanted to try it."

'Wild Thing' actor Oh Jung-se explained, "The singing was fun, and the character was fresh and cute. Most importantly, I wanted to work with the director, and he reached out to me, so I joined the project."

'Wild Thing' actor Park Ji-hyun shared, "When I was training as an actor, I auditioned for many of the director's works. I was that much of a fan of the director." She emphasized, "I found the script fun to read. The character of Domi felt charming because of her confidence, honesty, and the humor that comes from her generous nature."

'Wild Thing' actor Eom Tae-gu said, "I was scared, but the script was so fun. I wanted to try it because Kang Dong-won was cast as Hyun-woo."

'Wild Thing' is scheduled to be released on June 3.
