"Kamen Girl" is a remake of the popular web comic, the director revealed that when he first came into contact with the manga, he thought that the story structure was very large, and he initially decided to adapt it into an album, and he was confident that "Kamen Girl" would definitely cause a wide response after it was launched. The play depicts the extraordinary journey of Kim Maupe, who looks ordinary but is uneasy about her appearance, and under the mask, she lives a double life as an online model, exploring the exciting world of night, and parallel existence evolves into a series of accidents, presenting a fascinating story of identity, longing and unexpected consequences.
The Kamen Girl hidden behind the camera is played by 3 people playing the same role, and the director shared that when he set up "3 people playing 1 role", he actually experienced a long time of pulling, thinking that the presentation of special makeup or special effects was not as good as the real actor, so he finally adapted the protagonist setting with this, and still believes that the right decision is made.
Li Hanbie, who participated in the public press conference for the first time, was very nervous about her first time on stage, and she shared that when she first met other masked girls, especially Ko Hyun-ting, she said: "So you are Kamen C? I'm Kamen A!" Through the identity of the masked girl, she opened the topic when they first met, and also made Gao Xianting and Li Han smile at each other on stage. NANA ALSO SAID AT THE PRESS CONFERENCE THAT THERE WERE MANY DANCING AND ACTION SCENES IN THE TRAILER, AND SHE SPENT A LOT OF TIME PRACTICING FOR THIS, HOPING THAT EVERYONE COULD LOOK FORWARD TO THIS WORK.

On the other hand, Ahn Jae-hong describes his character as "an office worker who strives to be invisible during the day, but longs to be seen in his own world at night." The director revealed that when he first conceived this role, there was only Ahn Jae-hong in his mind, and although he actually saw Ahn Jae-hong and found that there was a big gap, after filming, he thought that Ahn Jae-hong perfectly interpreted the role. Lian Huilan, who also plays a vengeful mother in "Dark Glory", is also a mother who seeks revenge for her son this time, she said that although they are all out of "maternal love", she hopes that this role can bring more and more complex conflicts, including her age, religion and other beliefs, so that she can get closer to the goal of revenge.

But I hope that everyone can look at people and things from different angles, and maybe they will have different ideas!" "Kamencade" will be available on Netflix on August 18.
