He was interviewed by Sports Hangook on the 11th and he said, "I think publicity is working because I've been invited to Cannes. The Cannes mark on the poster makes it look better. Elderly people might not be able to see it well so I asked them to put in the words 'Cannes Invitation' on the poster".

This is his second time in Cannes. He was there with "Peppermint Candy" in 1999. "I was blur back then and I just followed the director around but now I think I can enjoy myself".

"I hope the movie does well because it's going to Cannes. I think Cannes is doing a lot for the movie and I hope the movie lives up to everyone's expectation".

Meanwhile, "The Merciless" is a criminal action movie starring Im Si-wan, Sol Kyung-gu, Kim Hee-won and Jeon Hye-jin-II. It comes out on the 17th of May.
