A feature on actor Hwang Minhyun has been released.

Hwang Minhyun, who has been an active ambassador of the brand Moncler for four years, perfectly pulls off the Moncler collection and the special edition down jacket to celebrate Moncler's 70 year anniversary in a feature released on September 20.

In the interview following the shoot, he expressed his thoughts on the recently concluded drama, Alchemy of Souls (Part 1), and hinted at the anticipation for its sequel, Alchemy of Souls: Light and Shadow.

He confessed that Alchemy of Souls was a show that really wanted to appear in, saying about his first impression of the script: "It had things I'd never seen before and things I hadn't even imagined. I finished it in one sitting without rest. Upon reading it, my mind had been made up."

When asked about what the viewers should expect about its second season, he answered: "Naksu appeared in the brief preview. That probably sparked our viewers' curiosity. Alchemy of Souls: Light and Shadow is a show they can watch with bated breath, waiting for the events to quickly unfold."

He also revealed his hopes to show more growth in the future. "On stage, acting is guiding the mood to sync with the song, while singing and dancing in the span of three minutes. After a while, what would it be like if I expressed another character instead of myself? The process of taking a long time worrying and making an effort to become a different character seems amazing and cool. It's fun, too. I had a later start than other actors and have less experience, so I have to make that much more of an effort and study a lot. I want to show how I act in many different places."

Hwang Minhyun's photoshoot and interview can be seen on the October issue Arena Homme Plus and website.
