The highly anticipated film "Opposition" (directed by Hwang Byeongguk, distributed by Plus M Entertainment, produced by HYBE Media Corp) is attracting attention this first half of the year, as Kang Ha-neul and Park Hae-joon reunite on screen for the first time in 11 years since "Misaeng," showcasing a fierce acting competition.
Kang Ha-neul and Park Hae-joon from the film "Opposition" are igniting special expectations from potential audiences as they team up again for the first time in 11 years since the drama "Misaeng," which depicts the survival stories of office workers. "Opposition" is a crime action film that unfolds with a broker "Opposition" who designs Korea's drug market, a "prosecutor" aiming to rise to a higher position, and a "detective" who is fully committed to eradicating drug crimes, each with different goals.
The drama "Misaeng," which aired in 2014, depicted the realities of office workers with vivid realism, delivering messages of empathy and comfort to viewers. In "Misaeng," Kang Ha-neul portrayed Jang Baek-ki, a rookie at the steel team with exceptional work skills that belied his status as a social novice, showcasing an elite persona, while Park Hae-joon played Manager Cheon Kwan-woong from the sales team, who strives to ride the internal power line with innate ability and astute flattery, gaining recognition from the public.
Kang Ha-neul and Park Hae-joon, who exhibited distinct charms in a single work, are set to reunite through "Opposition" and captivate audiences with an overwhelming acting synergy. Kang Ha-neul's character Lee Gang-soo is a broker "Opposition" who coexists with drug offenders and law enforcement, expected to showcase a multidimensional performance oscillating between humor and seriousness.
On the other hand, Park Hae-joon takes on the role of the tenacious detective Oh Sang-jae, who never lets go once he bites, persistently chasing down the drug crimes involving Lee Gang-soo and injecting tension and vigor into the film. The unpredictable relationship between the drug broker "Opposition" and the "Head of Team" of the drug investigation unit escalates into unforeseen situations, culminating in a fiery acting competition between Kang Ha-neul and Park Hae-joon that will add intensified tension and entertainment.
Kang Ha-neul shared his thoughts on acting with Park Hae-joon, saying, "They provided many good ideas, and we had a lot of discussions on set. That's why the scenes turned out to be very enjoyable one by one," revealing the secrets behind the acting synergy that elevated the drama's completeness. Park Hae-joon also noted, "He is a good-natured friend, and I also have a decent personality, so we filmed flexibly together with good individuals. I think we created good synergy," hinting at the amicable atmosphere on set despite the fierce confrontations in the drama.
The crime action film "Opposition," which evokes anticipation with the reunion of Kang Ha-neul and Park Hae-joon 11 years after "Misaeng," is set to be released on April 23.
