Regarding the casting of Yoo Hae-jin in Assassins

Investment in a film is made based on the scenario and the packaging of the director and actors.
Production companies and directors strive to cast A-list actors to secure investment.
This is because whether investment is secured and the scale of that investment depends on which actor is attached.
Therefore, A-list actors hold the upper hand.
An actor like Yoo Hae-jin, who has appeared in five films that were considered "low-brow," naturally receives many scenarios.
"Assassins" is a project he carefully selected from among them.
It means he filmed it out of conviction.
I am writing this because some people claim he just did as he was told to make money because he was paid.
