About This DVD
South and North Korea are on the verge of reunification, and the best way to
celebrate this momentous occasion is the re-opening of the Gyunghuiseon Line.
But Japan, claiming ownership of the line, interrupts the festivities with a
contract signed by the last Joseon Emperor, Gojong, a move which drives both
Koreas into a crisis.
No man has influenced Korean commercial cinema in the last decade like Director
Kang Woo Suk. When he formed a small film company in 1993, nobody expected
Cinema Service to become one of the most important names in Chungmuro. But Kang
is not simply a mega-producer, he's also a talented director with a knack for
finding the right theme at the right time. With Two Cops in 1993 he brought
commercial filmmaking back from the abyss of the early 90s, and then in 2003, a
little film called Silmido became the first ever Korean production to sell more
than 10 million tickets.
Kang's new film Hanbando follows the same path as his previous films: it's very
controversial and it's a big spectacle. The huge cast is highlighted with
experienced actors, including Ahn Sung Ki (Musa, Duelist) as the Korean
President, Moon Sung Keun (Princess Aurora) as the skeptical Prime Minister, and
finally Cha In Pyo (Hong Kong Express) and Cho Jae Hyun (Bad Guy, Piano) as the
agents trying to get to the truth. The 10 billion won blockbuster Hanbando
polarized viewers because of its strong political themes, and drew close to 4
million people to the theaters. Now is your chance to see what caused all that
fuss.
