Actor Jo In-sung expressed his sense of responsibility toward Disney+’s “Moving” Season 2.

On the 9th, we met with actor Jo In-sung at a café on Samcheong-ro in Jongno-gu, Seoul, to discuss various topics ahead of the release of the film “Hope,” directed by Na Hong-jin.

Ahead of the release of “Hope,” one of Korea’s most anticipated films, Jo In-sung said, “I am not someone who has made significant contributions to Korean cinema; I am simply an actor who makes movies because I love them.” He added, “There is a flower called the crape myrtle. It blooms by breaking through the rainy season and sea winds, and it seems that Korean cinema right now shares a similar fate with this flower.”

He continued, “Although the film industry faces many difficulties both internally and externally, I hope that ‘Hope’ will bloom fully in the hearts of audiences like the crape myrtle.” He also stated, “While it is not something an individual actor can control, since this is a work created with great effort by everyone, I do have hope for positive results.”

Additionally, Jo In-sung is currently focused on filming Disney+’s original series “Moving” Season 2.

He remarked, “When ‘Moving’ Season 1 was released, I was filming ‘Hope’ in Romania. I heard that the work received a favorable response, and I remember it took several hours just to download due to poor internet conditions.” He added, “Although it was widely loved, being on set meant I couldn’t directly feel its popularity, which is somewhat regrettable.”

He further stated, “Since ‘Moving’ Season 1 received so much love, our goal for Season 2 is to repay that affection,” and confirmed, “We plan to shoot with our utmost effort.”

Smiling, he added, “‘Moving’ also heavily relies on VFX and deals with superpowers. To fully realize writer Kang Full’s imagination, the actors will likely need to give their all once again.”

Meanwhile, “Hope” begins with a story about Hong-ssi, the manager of a Pohang outpost located in the demilitarized zone, who learns from local youths that a tiger has appeared. As the entire town goes into alarm, he encounters an unbelievable reality. The film will be released on the 15th.
