In a lively press conference held in Yongsan District, veteran actor Song Kang-ho and acclaimed director Kim Jee-won excitedly discussed their fifth collaboration, the uproarious comedy film, "Cobweb." Their partnership, rooted in past successes like "The Quiet Family," "The Foul King," "The Good, the Bad, the Weird," and "The Age of Shadows," has yielded a creative camaraderie that continues to surprise and delight audiences.

Premiering at this year's Cannes Film Festival, "Cobweb" centers around the quirky tale of Kim Ki-yeol, played by Song Kang-ho, a 1970s director with an insatiable desire to reshape his latest film's ending. As Kim embarks on a misadventure to persuade actors and producers to reshoot the concluding scenes, the film unfolds into a delightful blend of humor and chaos, reflecting the unpredictable production journey directors often endure.

Song Kang-ho, known for his magnetic screen presence, praised Director Kim's unique storytelling and noted the film's exploration of human desire with a lighthearted touch. "Cobweb" showcases the struggles and aspirations of an artist grappling with the need to create a masterpiece amidst the mayhem and conflicts that surround him.

Director Kim emphasized the importance of ensemble comedy and the stellar cast's contribution to the film's distinct style of humor. Actress Im Soo-jung, who takes on the role of the veteran actress in Kim Ki-yeol's movie, highlighted the exhilarating challenge the film presented and the joy of collaborating with exceptional talents.

"Cobweb" is set to captivate audiences with its riotous storytelling and ensemble performances when it hits local theaters in September, promising a delightful cinematic experience.
