Just like you saw in the trailer, the movie has love, comedy, action, and intensity. I believe 'Retro' will win your hearts on May 1.’

I once dreamed of meeting him, and now sharing the stage with him is an unforgettable moment. I truly admire him as an actor. His choice of films inspires others in the industry, and he always explores different genres. I wish him a huge success with the 'Retro' film.’
