Actor Hwang Seok-jung revealed behind-the-scenes details of the film 'Hope'.

On the 17th, a video titled "You thought I was sick. Actor Hwang Seok-jung's tearful life confession about suffering from rare pain and walking between life and death (feat. Paju Yakcheon Temple)" was uploaded to the YouTube channel 'Buddha's Temple, The Bible'.

On this day, Kim Seong-ryeong said, "I saw Director Na Hong-jin and Bong Joon-ho talking about 'Hope.' Wasn't everything your ad-lib?" She then mentioned Hwang Seok-jung's role as the head of a health center in 'Hope'.

In response, Hwang Seok-jung said, "I was the head of the health center and the person dissecting aliens. No special lines were written for me. How could they have known how an alien would appear or be arranged beforehand? They designed it, but you only know once you see it."

He continued, "When I went to the filming site, I thought, 'How do I act like this?' But perhaps because I've seen so many harsh things, my hand just instinctively went to his crotch. Isn't distinguishing between male and female really important?"

When Kim Seong-ryeong said, "Only Hwang Seok-jung could do that," he replied, "That character resembled me; it was like a doppelgänger of Director Na Hong-jin. The absurdity, madness, and obsession shown in the role were exactly like Director Na."

When Kim Seong-ryeong told Hwang Seok-jung, "It's Director Na's persona," he explained, "I have never spoken a single word to the director. That person is like a painter who paints while observing my rhythm."

He added, "I don't know what goes on inside him, but he is extremely sensitive. Didn't they say he's a perfectionist? When filming 'The Yellow Sea,' I played the role of 'Dala-shang' and had to speak in Yanbian dialect. They held auditions for dozens of people just for that small role. It took me a month to become him."
