In relation to this, the agency Ghost Entertainment said on the 9th, "The investigative agency related to the criminal defamation case forwarded the case (sent an indictment) on the grounds that the defendant violated the social evaluation of the accuser by stating false information to a significant extent, and the charge of defamation was justified. “Further investigation is currently underway,” he explained.

Park Hye-soo, who met the audience at the time through 'You and I', which was invited to the Busan International Film Festival last year, said that a year later, she is still building a strong relationship with the 'You and I' team.
He said, "After the Busan International Film Festival, 'You and I' went to various other film festivals and spent a lot of time together as a team, including the director, Si-eun Kim, and the producer. Until today, I imagined and waited a lot for the moment ahead of its release." "I imagined how empty it would be when this schedule was over, to the point where I thought about not releasing 'You and I'. We care for each other and maintain a close relationship. I felt like I learned and felt acting and was loved on set, so this movie is very precious to me." did.
Kim Si-eun said, "I read the scenario with anticipation because I heard that senior Cho Hyeon-cheol would direct it, and it seemed like the feelings of a high school student were well expressed. I felt like there were a lot of things expressed in the scenario, so I was curious about how he would solve it." He added, "The message of love was so great. “It was good. I wanted to know how Ha-eun loves Se-mi, animals, and objects,” he said, explaining the background to his appearance in this film.
Regarding the background of casting Park Hye-soo, director Kim Hyeon-cheol said, "I met (Park) Hye-soo through a work, and it was in 'Swing Kids' that my acting was imprinted. After taking the 'Samjin Group English TOEIC Class', she suggested casting me, and I couldn't do it. “I thought he would, but he readily accepted,” he said, adding, “I think the three of us worked together for a long time and worked hard to complete the movie.”
Regarding Kim Si-eun, he said, "I saw her ad-libbing at the audition, and she was animal-like and genius. I thought, 'Ah, this actress can do it.'"
‘You and I’ will be released on the 25th.
