Actor Hong Kyung is set to make his debut in voice acting, teaming up with Kim Tae-ri for an animated film.
The Netflix film 'Lost in Starlight', premiering on the 30th, is set in Seoul in 2050. It tells the romantic story of Nanyeong, an aspiring astronaut, and Jay, who has put aside his dreams of becoming a musician, as they pursue their dreams and love.
In the film, Hong Kyung voices Jay, a character who works at a retro audio repair shop while harboring dreams of music. He encounters Nanyeong (voiced by Kim Tae-ri) by chance, leading to a long-distance romance that spans the greatest distances.
Through Jay, Hong Kyung is expected to deliver a performance that is fresh, exciting, and poignant. His portrayal captures the essence of a character who is both emotional and free-spirited, offering warmth and comfort in his performance.
Hong Kyung's dedication to the role, from character analysis to live-action filming and OST participation, will be showcased in 'Lost in Starlight', Netflix's first Korean animated film, available on the 30th.
