As he is considered a leading figure in K -hip-hop, commonly referred to as ‘national hip-hop,’ attention is focused on whether he will be able to add a new title of ‘actor’ to his resume.

The news of Swings’s consideration for a Chungmuro commercial film was reported on the 15th.The production company for ‘Tazza 4’ has not made an ‘official confirmation’, but this is focusing the attention of movie fans ‘just by rumor’, as it coincides with Swings’s past announcement that he would not appear in ‘Squid Game’.

Swings gained public attention last year when he revealed that he auditioned for the role of Thanos, the main character in Season 2 of Netflix’s ‘Squid Game’.The role went to Choi Seung-hyun(TOP).
Despite not being cast, Swings strengthened his will to act and began ‘formal training’.He actually showed his sincere enthusiasm by registering for an ‘acting academy’ under his real name, Moon Ji-hoon.There were also results that he achieved after his challenge.He was cast in the short web drama ‘No Movie’ directed by creator Jin Yong-jin, and he made his acting debut by playing the role of a used car dealer representative.

Even after failing to audition for ‘Squid Game 2’, Swings has continuously shown his passion for acting by enrolling in acting academies and appearing in web dramas.Expectations are rising for his debut in Chungmuro with this appearance.Photo source | Swings SNS

Meanwhile, as his appearance in the movie ‘Tazza 4’ becomes more visible, his acting challenge is once again receiving attention.The movie production company, Sidus, stated that it is “under discussion,” but at the same time, various circumstances that add weight to the possibility of his appearance are also surfacing, drawing attention.A representative example is Swings’s posting on his SNS a photo taken with actor Byun Yo-han, who has been cast as the lead in ‘Tazza 4.’

‘Tazza 4’ is the latest installment in the ‘Tazza’ series, which began with ‘Tazza’, which was released in 2006 and succeeded at the box office by attracting 5.69 million moviegoers nationwide, and continued with ‘Tazza: The Hidden Card’ (2014)and ‘Tazza: One Eyed Jack’ (2019).Following the baton from Cho Seung-woo, Choi Seung-hyun, and Park Jung-min, Byun Yo-han was cast as the ‘4th Tazza’.
