Yesterday, director Han Jae-rim sat down for an interview with the press.
Regarding the progress of "Hypnotized," director Han Jae-rim mentioned, "I'm currently working on the script. I need to have Episode 4's script finished by the end of this week, so I'm constantly working on it these days."
He further elaborated, saying, "While the plan is to turn it into a series, I'm unsure if that will be feasible. But that's the direction we're aiming for."
Previously, there were reports about Ryu Jun Yeol and Han So-hee being considered for protagonist roles.
Shortly after, however, the two underwent a turbulent period, from publicly confirming their relationship to subsequently parting ways within two weeks.
At that time, the production company of "Hypnotized" told the media, "While it's true that discussions were ongoing with Ryu Jun Yeol and Han So-hee regarding casting, we decided to suspend further deliberations since no final decisions had been reached."
Director Han Jae-rim commented, "It was unfortunate that reports about their casting were published when no decisions had actually been made," then emphasized, "Nothing had been confirmed at that point though."
Around then, Ryu Jun Yeol's ex-girlfriend Hyeri of K-pop girl group Girl's Day posted cryptic messages on Instagram, implying Ryu Jun Yeol's infidelity, later explaining she thought they were on a break.
The situation escalated with public explanations and apologies from all three parties, leading to Ryu Jun Yeol and Han So-hee's breakup just two weeks after going public.
