Actor Ma Dong-seok expressed his determination to challenge the spring box office with the film ‘Holy Night: Demon Hunters’.

‘Holy Night: Demon Hunters’, which opens on the 30th, is an occult action movie that depicts the story of a city thrown into chaos by an evil-worshiping group, and the ‘Holy Night’ team, a group of dark solvers with special abilities, punishing the evil group.

At the press and distribution preview held at Lotte Cinema Konkuk University Entrance in Songpa-gu, Seoul on the 21st, Ma Dong-seok expressed his satisfaction with the film’s action scenes, saying, “Since it is a genre film with a lot of fantasy elements, I thought there would be more explosive and refreshing action scenes, and I think that part was well expressed.Movies about catching criminals are reality-based movies, so I had to keep a certain line, but I was able to expand a little more in this film, so I feel relieved.”

He then added, “I hope you feel refreshed when you watch it because they(the devil and devil worshippers in the play)are worse than the criminals I beat up.”

Following “The Outlaws” 2, 3, and 4, he has thrown down the gauntlet to the spring theaters for the fourth consecutive year.He said, “The” The Outlaws “series was released in the spring and thankfully received so much love from the audience, continuing to score 10 million, for which I am forever grateful.” He continued, “However, this film is a genre that we are trying for the first time, and I am curious to see how people will perceive it.I am more curious about the audience’s reaction than the” The Outlaws “series.I am curious to know what they think of our new attempt at a worldview.We made this film in the hopes that it will be of some help to the audience so that they can come to the theaters.”
