Yoon Doojoon, Seo Hyunwoo, Park Jinju Join 'Honest Candidate 2'

[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Iseul] Actors Yoon Doojoon, Seo Hyunwoo, and Park Jinju have joined the Mouth Squad.

On the 23rd, the investment and distribution company NEW released the teaser poster for the film Honest Candidate 2 (directed by Jang Yoojung).

The film is a sequel to Honest Candidate, which was released in 2019 and entertained over 1.53 million viewers. It depicts a comedy where a former member of the National Assembly, who has seized a dazzling comeback opportunity, and his secretary both acquire the ‘Mouth of Truth,’ leading them into greater chaotic confusion. Actors Ra Mi-ran, Kim Mu-yeol, and Yoon Kyung-ho reprise their central roles from the previous film, while Seo Hyunwoo, Park Jinju, and Yoon Doojoon join the cast newly.

The released poster draws attention with Joo Sang-sook (Ra Mi-ran) covering her mouth and the unexpected duo of Park Hee-cheol (Kim Mu-yeol). Their eyes are wide open as if surprised by the 100% pure truth they have just spoken, accompanied by the copy “The Mouths of Truth that can’t lie have burst out in pairs,” foreshadowing an even stronger ‘Mouth of Truth.’ It also raises curiosity about the twist involving Park Hee-cheol, who was the diligent chief secretary to Joo Sang-sook in the previous film.

The film is set to be released on September 28.
