Along with director Na Hong-jin, cinematographer Jeong Jeong-hoon, art director Lee Hu-kyung, costume designer Jo Sang-kyung, and music director Mog participated. In addition to Go Jun, Choi Moo-sung and Um Tae-gu also appeared.
In the play, Go Jun appeared as A, who came to the building wearing a fedora and a woolen coat, and presented intense suspense by performing difficult action scenes even in short sequences to obtain the mysterious key.
Previously, Go Jun appeared with director Na Hong-jin and actor Choi Moo-sung at the GV preview of 'Faith' hosted by Samsung Electronics at the Megabox COEX Dolby Cinema. In the released poster, Gojun is seen in a dark alley wearing heavy makeup on his face and body, giving off intense eyes and an unusual aura.
Director Na Hong-jin said, "I have always had a favorable opinion of Go Joon. While preparing for this project, I thought it would be good to see an actor with the strength and framework to receive the implicit message of the text and the appropriate tone, and Go Joon showed that well on a regular basis." “I made the offer because I was an actor,” he said.
Go Jun said, "I was happy to receive an offer from director Na Hong-jin, whom I always respected. It was nice to be able to work not only with the director, but also with the best staff members who are called national representatives and Samsung Electronics."
He added, "At first, I was worried that there would be a lot of painted makeup and it would be buried on the screen, but when I saw the result today, it felt even more overwhelming because every detail of the facial expression and skin texture was vivid."
Gojun said, "I know that the message this movie gives is faith. Even though there are many difficult things to go through, I hope that after watching this movie, you will not give up your beliefs and cheer up."
Meanwhile, Go Jun is currently preparing to release Wave's original drama 'Death to Snow White'.
