Directed by Ryu Seung-wan, the action crime investigation drama "Veteran 2" released an action poster on the 3rd and confirmed its release on September 13th.
"Veteran 2" is an action crime investigation drama in which the youngest detective, Park Sun-woo (Jung-in Jung), joins the team of veteran detective Seo Do-cheol (Hwang Jung-min), who is determined to catch the bad guys to the end, and hunts for a serial killer who has shaken the world.
The released poster consists of two posters showing a situation in which Seo Do-cheol (Hwang Jung-min) and Park Sun-woo (Jung-in Jung) confront someone in a torrential downpour and an action scene with a sense of urgency. In 'Veteran 2,' Hwang Jung-min and Jung-hae-in will appear as a veteran detective and a rookie detective."
In this regard, director Ryu Seung-wan said, "Since the release of 'Veteran' in 2015, I have been thinking that I would make a sequel someday. It's a project that has been in the back of my mind for nine years, so it's even more meaningful that 'Veteran 2' has been completed. I hope audiences will enjoy the movie as much as I did."
Prior to its premiere at the Cannes Film Festival, "Veteran 2" was praised for its "promise of fresh action and relatable themes" (Reuters), "the director's ability to combine entertaining action with incisive psychological and social exploration" (The Hollywood reporter), "Ryu Seung-wan's follow-up to the commercially successful Veteran doesn't disappoint" (Cinemateaser), "the most complete, impossibly amazing action since 'John Wick 4'! A sequel that surpasses its predecessor" (Screen Daily), and "More intense action, tighter storytelling, and a roller coaster ride!" (South China Morning Post).
