‘Broken’ Jung Man-sik talked about the part he focused on in this movie.

On the afternoon of the 23rd, a press conference for the movie ‘Broken’ was held at CGV Yongsan I-PARK MALL in Yongsan-gu, Seoul. Actors Ha Jung-woo, Kim Nam-gil, Yoo Da-in, Jung Man-sik, Im Sung-jae, and director Kim Jin-hwang attended the press conference that day.

On that day, Jung Man-sik said about the part he focused on while playing a gangster in this movie, “I was a gangster since my commercial film debut. I‘ve been a gangster for many years. Of course, I was a detective too. This time, I wanted to be simple. I wanted to look like the cool uncles people see around me.”

He continued, “That’s why I said it so that there would be no rejection, and because it would be uncomfortable to watch if you strained yourself, I wanted to make it easier for you to watch. I tried to make my costumes and hair a little neater. He added, ”I wanted it to be cool,“ drawing attention.

Meanwhile, ‘Broken’ is a movie that depicts the pursuit of anger by Min-tae (played by Ha Jung-woo) who runs to the end to reveal the truth of that night when everything became intertwined, including his younger brother who returned as a corpse, his wife who disappeared, and even a best-selling novel that predicted the incident. It will be released on February 5.
