He shares the latest news of a hardworking actor who will release six works in 2025, from drama to film, and raises curiosity by revealing an episode from the Squid Game shoot when he woke up in bed thinking he had lost his sight (?), the story will be revealed.

Streaming, YADANG: The Snitch, Tastefully Yours, Wall To Wall, Squid Game, and the upcoming film The First Ride. Only counting the works Kang Ha-neul actively participated in, six titles from the year are mentioned, and the MCs marvel, "At this rate it's 'monthly Kang Ha-neul.'" He joked, "I filmed them over several years, and unintentionally the release schedule turned out like this."
He also recounts how he was recently appointed as an ambassador for the Jecheon International Music & Film Festival. Kang Ha-neul said, "Director Jang Hang-joon called and I took out my card thinking I had to send a coffee truck. But it was a call asking me to be an ambassador," and with his characteristic innocent reaction he explained how he somehow became an ambassador, bringing laughter.
He also tells the story of how he unintentionally kept his distance from other actors on set. He explained, "I need time alone on set. That's my way of resetting." He added, "When I get home I throw my phone down," noting a resemblance to Kian84 that drew attention.
