Actor Eom Moon-seok expressed his deep affection for co-star Jo In-sung in the film 'Hoff'.

On the afternoon of the 29th, Eom Moon-seok met with StarNews at a café in Samcheong-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul, to conduct an interview about the movie 'Hoff' (directed by Na Hong-jin).

'Hoff' tells the story of 'Beom-seok', a camp manager stationed at a Pohang outpost located in the Demilitarized Zone, who learns from local youths that a tiger has appeared. As the entire village goes into high alert, he encounters an unbelievable reality. In 'Hoff', Eom Moon-seok played Yang-bae, a carpenter, delivering a powerful performance.

That day, Eom Moon-seok said, "Jo In-sung is one year older than me. He is truly an amazing person. I began thinking he was extraordinary even during the filming in Romania. I consider myself someone who works harder than anyone else, but when I worked with him for the first time this time, I thought, 'Is it possible to work so hard?' Honestly, I was shocked and reflected on myself."

Eom Moon-seok added, "He also told me, 'Moon-seok, you need to do more, you need to work harder.' We shared the same accommodation in Romania, and he gave me many wonderful pieces of advice. Although he is only one year older than me, when I was with him, he took such good care of me and treated me so kindly that I thought, 'I should become someone like Jo In-sung.' His basic attitude and demeanor on set were incredibly professional."

Eom Moon-seok also shared, "His horseback riding skills were amazing. Not only was his visual presence outstanding, but he also put a lot of thought into his acting. We discussed acting frequently, often asking each other, 'What went well today?' which further strengthened our bond."
