In the movie "I Just Dropped My Smartphone - Final Chapter - Final Hacking Game," Ryo Narita, who starred, revealed that he wants to co-star with Song Seok. Recently, at the Seoul Megabox COEX, an interview was held with Ryo Narita, Kwon Eunbi from IZ*ONE, and Ryohei Otani, who appeared in the movie "I Just Dropped My Smartphone - Final Chapter - Final Hacking Game" (Director: Hideo Nakata). The film depicts the final confrontation between two fated rivals: Urano (Ryo Narita), a genius hacker and murderer planning a large-scale cyber-terror, and Detective Kagaya, who tries to stop him. The film was officially invited to the 28th Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival (BIFAN) and is directed by Hideo Nakata, a master of Japanese horror. The series recorded a hit with over 1.9 billion yen in box office revenue when it was released in Japan in 2018. The second film, "I Just Dropped My Smartphone: The Captured Murderer," released in 2020, also recorded over 1.1 billion yen in box office revenue despite the COVID-19 pandemic causing theater closures. The series has gained global attention, being remade in Korea with a Netflix film starring Jung Woo-hee and Im Si-wan, and a Chinese remake is also in preparation. Ryo Narita expressed his happiness that a film that has been remade in Korea is being released as the final chapter, saying, "I want to return to Japan with enthusiasm." He mentioned watching the Netflix film starring Im Si-wan and Jung Woo-hee, saying, "I watched it on the day it was released in Japan. I thought it had a different kind of fun. I’m glad that the Japanese version is also becoming known through that work. I think the Korean version is a high-quality work." He often watches Korean works and humorously noted, "I can't say exactly when I started or stopped watching them. I think Korean dramas are much more intense than Japanese ones. For example, in the drama 'Penthouse,' there are scenes where things are thrown off the table (laughs)." When asked which Korean actors or directors he would like to co-star with, he replied, "I like and welcome everyone. Among them, I was impressed by Song Seok's recent drama. I also watched 'My Liberation Notes' with Kim Ji-won and 'The Murderer's Paradox' on Netflix." "I Just Dropped My Smartphone - Final Chapter - Final Hacking Game" is currently being screened in Japan and will be released in Korea in the first half of next year.
