"#living" (director Cho Il-hyung) starring Yoo A-in and Park Shin-hye has emerged as a Korean film reliever who has stagnated with Corona 19. It is expected that "Return from the Evil" (director Yeon Sang-ho), "Steel Rain 2: Summit" (director Yang Woo-suk) and "Save from the Evil" (director Hong Won-chan) will once again revitalize the film industry.
It was released on the 24th of last month as a survival thriller depicting the stories of those who were isolated in the apartment alone with data, Wi-Fi, text, and telephone all cut off while people who were not aware of the cause of '# Living' began to attack and were out of control. On the first day of release, it mobilized 204,071 people, which is the highest opening score record of its release since February, when the Corona 19 crisis alert was upgraded to a serious stage.
"I'm # Live" was the first to be released by the young children and Park Shin-hye, and it was ranked # 1 in the overall advance rate as it proved. Lotte Cinema, CGV, Megabox, YES 24, Interpark, portal site Naver and the following are the top advance rates. In particular, it attracted attention by recording the best advance market share since February, when it upgraded the Corona 19 crisis alert to a serious stage as well as overtaking both the prominent foreign and Korean movie competitions.
'Bando' is an action blockbuster that depicts the last struggle of those left behind in the ruined land for four years after 'Busan'. It is a sequel to 'Busan' which mobilized 11.56 million people at the time of its release in 2016, and it continues the Universe of director Sang Sang Ho. Kang Dong Won and Lee Jung Hyun joined together to prepare for another K-zombie craze.
"The Peninsula" is not only Korea but also the world, according to distributor NEW, which achieved the achievement of pre-sale in 185 countries before its release. The peninsula has achieved a complete scale of success in Asia, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Russia, Europe, North America, South America, Oceania as well as India, South Asia, Central Asia, Middle East, Scandinavia, etc., including Taiwan and Singapore, which were especially loved by Busan. Especially, it is expected to be a tent pole movie in countries that resumed theater business such as North America and Asia.
It will be released on July 15, the same day as Korea in Taiwan and Hong Kong after Singapore, and it will be released in Malaysia on July 16. Kang Dong-won, who had not been involved in an entertainment program for publicity before the release, appeared in "Civilization Express" and raised expectations for the movie.
Following "The Peninsula," "Steel Rain 2: Summit" meets the audience. 'Steel Rain 2: Summit' is a sequel to 'Steel Rain', a work that depicts the crisis before the war that takes place after the three leaders were kidnapped by the North Korean nuclear submarine during the North-South US Summit. Jung Woo-sung and Kwak Do-won, who appeared in the previous episode, once again united. It is expected that a new person, Hyun Suk, will appear and create a different chemistry ensemble.
If Jung Woo-sung and Kwak Do-won met again in 'Steel Rain 2: Summit', there are Hwang Jung-min and Lee Jung-jae in 'Save from evil'. Hwang Jung-min and Lee Jung-jae showed off their burader chemistry in "Shinsegae" (director Park Hoon-jung) seven years ago. The two will reunite and boast another synergy.
The two people who appeared on the radio earlier praised each other. Lee Jung-jae said, "When the scenario of 'Save from evil' came to me, (Hwang) Jung Min-hyung came from the state where the casting was decided first. "I thought, 'I'm going to have to do this,'" said Hwang Jung-min, who also said, "It was good. We had already had so much fun with our previous work (Shinsegae). It is a relationship to meet the work, but it was glad to meet in seven years even though it was not easy for us to say 'Let's do it'. I thought I could do well with fun, but the audience was more excited. "
The number of audiences stepping into the Theater is gradually decreasing due to the aftermath of Corona 19. Prior to "#living", "Invasion" (director Park Sang-hyun) and "Invasion" (director Son Won-pyeong) were the livelies of the Theater. This fire '# I am alive' made it burn like a fire in a campfire. We hope that 'Strength ratio 2: Summit' and 'Save from evil' will burn this fire further and revitalize it.
