As for the director, Han Dong Wook admitted that he had mixed feelings about it.

"I'm glad 'Moving' did well earlier, but it also makes me feel a little worried," he said, as obtained by a local news outlet.

Meanwhile, Ji Chang Wook felt positive about the release of the new K-drama, but he said that he felt "pressured" during the filming of "The Worst of Evil" after seeing the huge craze created by "Moving."

"As an actor in this work, I'm happy and grateful that it is going to premiere in a good time," he said. However, the actor said that the new series "has its own color" and different genre compared to "Moving," so viewers will get to see a whole new K-drama.

Fellow lead star Wi Ha Joon also hinted that "The Worst of Evil" is not a K-drama that can make viewers smile while watching the series with the family but promised that it "will bring a new feeling" to viewers.

What to Expect in 'The Worst of Evil'

One of his challenging tasks is to go undercover and earn the trust of the gang boss, Jung Ki Chul, played by Wi Ha Joon. Aside from this task, Park Joon Mo works alongside his wife, Yoo Eui Jung, an elite narcotics officer, played by Im Se Mi.

Interestingly, she happens to be Jung Ki Chul's first love.
