On November 30, the cast and crew of the Netflix series "Sweet Home 2" attended the premiere press conference. This Netflix original action thriller is directed by Lee Eung Bok, with actor Song Kang playing the main character role of Hyun Soo. Other cast members include Lee Jin Wook, Lee Si Young, Go Min Si, Jinyoung, Yoo Oh Sung, and Kim Moo Yeol in various roles. The first episode of the series is set to air on December 1, 2023.
During the press conference, director Lee Eung Bok shared his thoughts on actor Song Kang, expressing a desire to see a more mature side of him than what was seen in "Sweet Home" Season One. He mentioned, "Since some years have passed since the release of Season 1, I wanted to see Hyun Soo mature. When Song Kang arrived on set, I saw that he had already matured very well, and it made me choke up."
Song Kang then spoke about his character on 'Sweet Home,' stating, "'Sweet Home' is a very meaningful project for me, one of the projects which made me who I am today. To prepare for Season 2, I looked internally, keeping a diary on the character 'Hyun Soo.' Since the story deals with fantastic creatures, there is some distance from the real world, so I reflected on that aspect as well as on Hyun Soo's thoughts and emotions."
Additionally, in addition to his acting career, Song Kang mentioned his future plans after finishing the promotions for "Sweet Home 2" series. The actor plans to enlist in the military soon after finishing his work schedules, stating, "It is my natural duty, so once I finish up promotion schedules for 'Sweet Home 2,' I will fulfill my [mandatory] duties and return in good health."
So, "Sweet Home 2" series will be the last series of actor Song Kang before his enlistment. However, after his comeback from the military, we will be able to see a more mature side of the actor and new projects of Song Kang. Until then, we wish him good luck for all his future endeavors.
