[Asia Economy Reporter Jang Hyowon] Studio Santa Claus announced on the 8th that the production of the SF film "Jeong-i" (working title), starring their actor Ryu Kyungsoo, has been confirmed.


The Netflix film "Jeong-i" is an SF movie set in the 22nd century, where humanity, having become unable to live on Earth due to climate change, experiences a civil war in a shelter they created as a refuge. The story depicts people trying to successfully create the brain-cloned robot of the legendary mercenary "Jeong-i," who holds the key to victory.


Ryu Kyungsoo, who has shown a 180-degree transformation in every work such as the film "Hanggeo," and dramas "Confession," "Itaewon Class," and "Lovestruck in the City," has been confirmed to appear as "Sanghoon," the head of the research institute who must succeed in the brain-cloning experiment of the humanoid combat robot "Jeong-i," the key to the allied forces' victory.


A representative of Studio Santa Claus said, "We expect actor Ryu Kyungsoo to show a new side of himself in this film as well," and added, "We will do our best to prepare so that the drama production planned by the company can be presented as soon as possible."



Meanwhile, Studio Santa Claus recently pursued a paid-in capital increase of approximately 60.8 billion KRW to strengthen its cultural content production business and secure funds necessary for drama production.
