Gu Gyeo-hun showcased infinite abilities in "Resurrection Man: The Red," where he becomes stronger after dying and coming back to life.

On the 16th, a press screening for the film "Resurrection Man: The Red" (directed by Baek) was held at Seoul Songpa-gu Lotte Cinema World Tower. Following the screening, Gu Gyeo-hun, Shin Seung-ho, Kang Ki-young, Kim Si-a, and Director Baek attended a press conference.

"Resurrection Man: The Red" (hereinafter "Resurrection Man") is a film depicting the story of Seok-hwan (played by Gu Gyeo-hun), a job seeker whose only qualification is unfounded confidence, who discovers he can resurrect after dying and regains his strength within 72 hours while being pursued by mysterious forces. Gu Gyeo-hun portrayed Seok-hwan, a man who becomes stronger the more he dies.

Gu Gyeo-hun said, "I wanted to give the impression of Seok-hwan as someone you might meet in your daily life, like a young man living next door." He added, "It was so wonderful to watch such a character grow over time, and I felt happy doing so. Acting made me feel like I was meeting friends around me," expressing his affection for the character.

Gu Gyeo-hun delivers a powerful performance with full-scale action scenes. He explained, "Seok-hwan's actions rely on the trickle-down effect. In the early part of the film, there are analog-style hand-to-hand fights, and I acted with the intention of performing them safely without injury." He continued, "I actually aimed to shoot safely and avoid excessive flair in the action scenes. I felt that my action performance was created by the other actors. Since a slight hit sends me flying, I am grateful for the action they helped create."

Gu Gyeo-hun said, "If this film becomes a series, Seok-hwan's abilities might be infinite. Since he becomes stronger after returning from death, he might even intentionally seek death to grow stronger." Director Baek added, "Seok-hwan has no limits as long as he keeps resurrecting," and expressed hope that the film would be widely loved so it could showcase an even more expansive world.

Gu Gyeo-hun said, "If it becomes a series, I would like to meet characters of another color as well. If the work becomes a series, I want to be part of it and create an even bigger story," expressing his affection for the project.

Shin Seung-ho, who played Black in the film, delivered most of his lines in English and other foreign languages. He explained, "I am not actually proficient in foreign languages, but I considered this work a great opportunity and approached it seriously. There was always a teacher on set, and I paid close attention to pronunciation and sound. I worked hard to make sure the audience wouldn't feel that the actor was using English and Japanese just because of this film, aiming for a natural performance." When praised for having a sexy voice, Shin Seung-ho jokingly replied, "Today is the happiest day of my life."

It remains to be seen whether "Resurrection Man," which returns stronger even after death, can dominate theaters this fall.

Meanwhile, "Resurrection Man" will be released on September 30.
