South Korean director Ryu Seung-Wan's latest film, 'I, The Executioner,' has been selected to be showcased at the 77th Cannes Film Festival. This sequel to his 2015 hit movie, 'Veteran,' will be featured in the midnight screening category, which highlights genres like action, fantasy, horror, and thrillers. This marks Ryu's second appearance at Cannes, with his previous attendance in 2005 for his film 'Crying Fist.'
'Veteran' was a massive success at the box office, ranking as the fifth highest-grossing film in South Korean cinema history. The storyline revolved around police detective Seo Do-chul, portrayed by Hwang Jung-min, as he delves into the activities of a sadistic corporate heir, Jo Tae-oh, played by Yoo Ah-In.
