Lu, played by Kim, has always been very popular in ipartment. Although he has a genius IQ and outstanding computer skills, his emotional intelligence is very low and he doesn't understand the world at all, so he makes a lot of jokes.

Judging from the story introduced in ipartment and some trailers released, there is no mention of what kind of story will happen. Moreover, it is reported that the film started shooting in September last year, when Jin, who played Lu, was filming the director's "Our Forty Years", so it seems that there may be conflicts in the schedule.

Moreover, if the story of the movie version of ipartment is continued on the TV version of ipartment, in fact, in ipartment 4, Lu has already gone to Africa, so even if Lu is not in the movie, the story will not be too abrupt. In addition, Kim himself has been playing different roles in recent years. He wants to constantly hone his acting skills, and he doesn't want everyone to remember only the role of Lu. Therefore, it is understandable that Lu, played by Kim, did not appear in the film this time.
