Song Kang-hu of the film 'Possible Love' shared his emotional remarks after shedding tears at the Venice Film Festival.

On the 21st, a press screening for the Netflix film 'Possible Love' (directed by Lee Chang-dong) was held at Seoul Yongsan-gu CGV Yongsan i-Park Mall. Following the screening, Song Kang-hu, Jo In-sung, Cho Yeo-jeong, and director Lee Chang-dong attended the press conference. Jeon Do-yeon, who is currently performing in New York, joined via live video call.

'Possible Love' tells the story of two couples—a laid-off worker and his wife, and a documentary filmmaker and her husband—who meet to produce a documentary, confronting their different lives and hidden desires. 'Possible Love' is director Lee Chang-dong's first new work in eight years and features a gathering of top-tier actors including Jeon Do-yeon, Song Kang-hu, Jo In-sung, and Cho Yeo-jeong, drawing global attention from film fans worldwide.

Notably, 'Possible Love' was honored with the Silver Lion Award jury service at the 83rd Venice Film Festival on the 12th (local time). After the film's screening that day, it became a hot topic when actors Song Kang-hu and Jo In-sung were seen shedding tears.

Song Kang-hu stated, "I watched this film for the second time in Venice. I first saw it at a technical screening in Korea, then again in Venice, where I watched it with great focus." He continued, "Seeing my wife Mi-ok grasp even a sliver of hope made me wonder if we too could find hope. As I watched her gaze at the moon and feel moved, memories of our filming in Gohyeong flashed before me like a panorama. At that moment, tears welled up in my eyes."

Song Kang-hu added, "I received many messages while I was in Korea; I felt so embarrassed that I scolded myself. Fortunately, Jo In-sung cried with me, which brought me comfort."

In response, Jo In-sung added, "I cried because my senior brother cried."

Meanwhile, 'Possible Love' will be released in theaters on September 23 and will be made available via Netflix on November 6.
