Cult complains about film portrayal

“We have received complaint calls [from the cult], and we explained that the film does not deal with a particular religious cult,” the company told the press Thursday.
In order to prevent any misunderstandings, the company said actor Lee Jung-jae re-recorded a scene where he talks about Shincheonji, right before the press preview took place Wednesday.
The movie, which is set to premiere on Feb. 20, tells the story of a priest who seeks to solve a mysterious case involving a dead girl who may have been involved in a religious cult named “Deer Hill.”
