Kim Jee-woon said in an interview with a director in Palpan-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul on the 26th, "Gang Dong-Won thought that he was the most heterogeneous actor when he moved the cartoon to the due diligence."
'Illang: The Wolf Brigade' project is a work that Kim has long prepared. In 2013, the first appearance proposal went to Gang Dong-Won, and he was with Gang Dong-Won for five years until the project actually went into production. 'Illang: The Wolf Brigade' is a film directed by Kim Jee-woon and a film by Gang Dong-Won.
Kim said, "Although there are typical handsome actors such as Jung Woo-sung and Choi Min-ho, there is a unique aura that only Gang Dong-Won has. Gang Dong-Won is a different handsome man, with a comical unrealistic side: If anyone has a full-throated modifier, I wonder if it's Gang Dong-Won," he explained.
"The most representative image in this movie is the appearance of a Ganghwa suit, and I thought that the steer and silhouette could only be done by Gang Dong-Won," he added.
Gang Dong-Won's acting as an Action was also what Kim Jee-woon thought. "One of the actors who plays the Action is Gang Dong-Won and one is Jung Woo-sung." Jung Woo-sung is a person who makes a hot Action that burns the whole body, while Gang Dong-Won is beautiful and cold. There is a cool and skimpy beauty, and there is a sad passion that is caused by the cool and skimpy beauty that he shows, "he said.
