Actor Kang Ha-neul introduced the unique format of the movie ‘Streaming’, which is conducted in ‘real time’.

‘Streaming’, which will be released on the 21st, is a thriller that unfolds as the most subscribed crime channel streamer Woosang (Kang Ha-neul) discovers clues to a serial murder case that had not been solved and broadcasts the process of tracking down the culprit in real time.

Kang Ha-neul, who has taken on the leading role, raised expectations by emphasizing the unique format of the film at the production report meeting held at Lotte Cinema Konkuk University Entrance in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul on the 26th. This movie was completed with a real-time development that feels like watching an actual live broadcast and a one-take filming that brings out the liveliness.

Kang Ha-neul explained that it was completely different from regular works that take a long time to analyze and prepare for characters, and “The format of the movie is unique and fresh, so the process of preparing for this format took a long time.” He continued, “The script itself was written in the first-person streaming sense. It was completely different from the movie scripts I‘ve seen so far. But it was really good and fresh. That’s why I wanted to do it more.”

The styling was also different. He said that he asked the styling team to “style my hair so that I can touch it.” He said that when filming normally, it‘s very difficult for actors to touch their own hair. We have to change the camera and film from various angles, so it can’t be different.“ ”That‘s why I try to refrain from touching my hair as much as possible, but in our work, the camera follows in real time, so I thought it didn’t matter what I did. “So, for this movie, I thought I could comfortably touch my hair and face, so I did that kind of styling,” he explained.
