Veteran actor Lee Byung-hun has been officially cast in an upcoming feature film helmed by Hwang Dong-hyuk, the creator of the global hit series "Squid Game". Production details regarding the project's plot and release schedule have not yet been publicly disclosed.

Chatting with The Hollywood Reporter at Filmart, the Korean auteur shares the vision behind his violent new film 'KO Club,' and the three Korean movies that most shaped him.

The best feedback Hwang Dong-hyuk received when he first pitched “Squid Game” in 2009 was someone asking him how he could possibly have come up with something so absurd.
