According to Flix Patrol, an OTT ranking site such as Netflix on the 24th (local time), 'Hell' maintains the No.
Director Yeon Sang-ho, who wrote the original webtoon of the same name, was also in charge of directing, solidifying his unique worldview. With an unconventional and fresh setting called Go to Hell, it shocked and thrilled viewers around the world by asking intense questions about universal topics such as life and death, crime and punishment, and justice. Here, actors Yoo Ah-in, Kim Hyeon-joo, Park Jung-min, Won Jin-ah, Yang Ik-joon, and others who believed and watched were all in attendance.
'Hell' hit the Netflix TOP 10 list in 71 countries right after its release. According to the site, 'Hell' took the top spot in Netflix's global TOP 10 TV (non-English) category. This is a total of the viewing hours for the past week (11/15-21), and recorded 43.48 million viewing hours in just three days after its release. Ranked 1st in the Top 10 in the country. In addition, it is a global box office hit by being listed in the TOP 10 list in 59 countries including India, the United States, France, and Germany.
When asked about season 2, director Yeon Sang-ho said, "I have been making a new story with writer Kyu-seok Choi since last summer about the story that follows after season 2. It is likely that it will be released as a cartoon in the second half of next year. However, there is no specific discussion about making it into a video.
Director Yeon Sang-ho said, "I was a little perplexed. I was bewildered," said Yeon Sang-ho, about the reaction of his acquaintances and the world's number one on Netflix. I am so grateful that so many people have contacted me and said, 'Are you also?'
'Hell' enjoys popularity around the world, but in some cases, the likes and dislikes of it are divided due to difficult content, including a rather esoteric worldview.
Director Yeon Sang-ho said, "At the beginning, when I was thinking of a work called 'Hell' with Netflix, I thought that people who like this genre would see it deeply, rather than that this work would satisfy the general public. "But it's amazing that so many people are watching this work and sharing stories about it. 'Hell' is about accepting and creating an unfamiliar worldview,

Most of all, regarding the arrowhead scene, where there are many likes and dislikes, he replied, "The existence of the arrowhead was a visual substance and a visual presence for the speaker, and the voice was important to cover up one's face with makeup and to attract people faithfully as a speaker."
Director Yeon Sang-ho said, "I think actor Kim Do-yoon (who played the leader of the arrowhead) did a lot of research. While watching various broadcasts, he did a lot of research because he thought, 'It would be more realistic to express this way.' I said that I wanted to act. I tried to express it very realistically. I think the reaction of unpleasantness is a natural reaction because the appearance of the speaker is materialized."
The setting to notify the date of the trip to hell in advance in the play is very impressive, and a similar setting appears in the director's previous work 'Train to Busan'.
Director Yeon Sang-ho said, "I had a similar thought when making 'Train to Busan', but I think that the final destination for human beings is death. The destination is a destination that everyone knows, so making a choice is an important point." I thought that the final destination was very similar to human life. This work was conceived from the imagination of whether humans can accept it when it unexpectedly becomes a high point. It looks similar, but with a subtle setting in a different way, it is very dramatic from ordinary life. Life makes a big difference. Those are subtle but unique settings that seem to have been a major help in creating a different story."
Regarding this, he said, "From the time I conceived 'Hell', I thought a lot about various stories that could happen in a certain situation with writer Choi Gyu-seok.
He continued, "I talked about the ending of this series from the time I started working on the webtoon, and the Netflix ending was decided before the manga was completely finished. It's not that I couldn't think of it in the last scene of the manga, so it's not that I didn't include it. I strategically chose not to include it in the manga, but to include it in the series. The crater that created the manga and the video is the same, so we can discuss how to use it strategically at the same time. It was a strategic choice for the release date.”
Director Yeon Sang-ho said that he and writer Choi Kyu-seok had the original IP of 'Hell', but said that Netflix had the right to make a video.
He said, "Because I am the author of the story, I naturally have the copyright to the original." "Netflix has the right to video this work. The right to video is the first option as far as I know, so if Netflix doesn't do season 2, other You can do it there,” he said.
Director Yeon Sang-ho, who is gaining popularity with movies 'Train to Busan', 'Peninsula' and Netflix's 'Hell', said, "About directing American films, 'Train to Busan' We talk a lot afterward, but it is taking some time because the system is different from Korea. It seems that the desire to do something as a creator is a natural desire.”
At the same time, about the favorable reviews from overseas media that ''Hell' is the second 'squid game', "I think that the trust that Korean movies and dramas have built little by little around the world over the past 15 years is exploding recently. Even before Silver, good movies and dramas existed in Korea, and the number of people around the world recognizing them was gradually increasing. Receiving began to respond slowly in the global market ten years ago, and I think that cracks are gathering and pouring out as if a dam is collapsing."
Meanwhile, 'Hell' was released in 190 countries around the world through Netflix on the 19th, and expectations for 'Hell' season 2 are also increasing.
