The much-talked-about film "First Ride" (Director: Nam De-jung) will be released in Korea on October 29 (Wednesday). The actors have revealed the "funniest scene in the movie". This work depicts the story of friends who have been together for 24 years going on their first overseas trip, including Te-jun (Kang Ha-neul), who shows a crazy obsession once he gets hooked, Do-jin (Kim Young-kwang), a bright character who rushes without brakes, Yong-min (ASTRO's Cha Eun-woo), a handsome guy who cannot objectively view his appearance, and Geum-bok (Kang Young-seok), a quirky person who has mastered the art of sleeping with his eyes open, and Ok-sim (Sona), a bulldozer type aiming for Seoul University while only focusing on Te-jun. Kang Ha-neul, Kim Young-kwang, Cha Eun-woo, Kang Young-seok, and former Secret's Sona are drawing attention by introducing one by one the "sure-to-be-hilarious" scenes of this work that will make audiences laugh this fall. The released footage is funny even without context, but it also includes even funnier points unique to "First Ride". First, Kang Ha-neul, playing the "go-all-the-way guy" Te-jun, portrays an intellectual character who became an aide to a member of the National Assembly after scoring full marks on the academic ability test (Japan's center exam), boasting his intelligent appearance. He commented on his role, saying, "Because of this face, it’s funny when I play an intellectual character that doesn’t suit me," and he will make the audience laugh with unexpected charm in this work as well. Next, Kim Young-kwang, playing the "bright guy" Do-jin, highlighted the great chemistry with his friends as a source of laughter. He raised expectations, stating that the good chemistry among the actors on set would generate significant laughs from each character. Kang Young-seok, playing the "guy who sleeps with his eyes open" Geum-bok, mentioned the performances of supporting actors like Ko Gyu-pil, saying that the perfect humor of not only the lead actors but also the supporting actors is a key point of laughter in this work. Cha Eun-woo, playing the "handsome guy" Yong-min, expressed that he would deliver great laughs again with director Nam De-jung following the film "Lovely Reset: 30 Days Later, We Divorce," and revealed that he had a lot of fun making funny suggestions on set. Finally, Sona, playing the "adorable guy" Ok-sim, explained that the combination of the five actors is the "laughter button." There is high anticipation for the birth of a comedy that is like a "comprehensive gift set of laughter" packed with each actor's unique humor. Additionally, the bonus footage includes Kang Ha-neul's actual travel episodes. He shared his experience of a somewhat forced, unplanned trip with friends during college, conveying that he lives with unforgettable travel memories like those of the friends in the movie "First Ride." Kang Ha-neul, who shows perfect synchronization with Te-jun, is already attracting attention for showcasing unpredictable travels that will greatly amuse the audience in this work as well. The 100% pure comedy film "First Ride" will be released in Korea on October 29 (Wednesday).
