It’s worth noting that both Oh Dal-soo and Choi Il-hwa have been edited out of this, having been caught up in the sexual harassment allegations currently sweeping through the Korean film industry, and have had their scenes re-shot with replacement actors Jo Han-chul and Kim Myung-gon.
Woah! Were the original actors in the theatrical release?
I figured this wouldn’t stop with Kim Ki-Duk.
They remain in ‘The Two Worlds’, but have been replaced in ‘The Last 49 Days’.
Oh, I misunderstood. I thought an “All the Money in the World” was pulled with the original as well.
