According to multiple outlets, after successfully wrapping up the filming session, the "Itaewon Class" star returned to his homeland on the afternoon of November 2 and was spotted at Incheon International Airport.

I know many people are curious about the name of the work, the character, the filming location, and the filming period, but detailed information about the movie will be announced later. Please cheer for Park Seo Joon, so he can return home safely," the statement reads prior to the actor's arrival.

Helmed by "Candyman "and "Little Woods" director Nia DaCosta, "The Marvels" is scheduled to premiere in theaters on November 11, 2022.
