Netflix ”Squid Game” Season 2, Director Hwang Dong-hyuk... ”TOP (former BIGBANG) casting issue? Let's judge it by the results”

Director Hwang Dong-hyuk confessed his feelings about the casting issue involving former BIGBANG member TOP (Choi Seung-hyun).
The meeting for season 2 of the Netflix series "Squid Game" was held on August 1st, with director Hwang Dong-hyuk and production company Fast
Kim Ji-yeong, president of Man Studios, was also in attendance. Director Hwang Dong-hyuk said, "In the case of someone like Choi Seung-hyun, a lot of time had passed since we tried to cast him.
He has already been sentenced and his probation period has ended. I thought that after that much time had passed, it would be time for him to start again, so I cast him."
He continued, "However, many more people than I expected expressed their concerns, and I began to think that maybe my thoughts were a little wrong," and "So I did a lot of research.
He worked hard to send us videos of his performance, and when he had doubts about any part of the reading he would check it again, showing his hard work and talent."
Director Hwang Dong-hyuk also said, "He was an actor I had a lot of eye for. I was very impressed with Choi Seung-hyun's role.
It's a role that requires courage. So I thought this actor was the most suitable, and that's why I made the decision." "It was an affair, but I've already spent a lot of time with the actor to turn it around.
So I came to the conclusion that I had no choice but to show through the final product why I had to do this work with this actor. I hope that once the town and the work are a little more complete, they will make a decision again."
"Squid Game" Season 2 will feature Ki-hoon (Lee Jung Jae), who returns to the game with a determination to get revenge, and the frontman (Lee Byung Hun) who welcomes him.
The story tells of a fierce battle between the two characters and the real game beginning again, and will be released on Netflix on December 26th.
