CHO Jin-woong and SONG Seung-heon Lead Period Drama

Following a three-month long shoot, the upcoming period film Commander KIM Chang-soo wrapped on January 31st. The production took place all over Korea, in regions such as Ganghwa-do, Hapcheon and Yeoju, with filming coming to a close on Hambaek Mountain in Gangwon-do Province.

CHO Jin-woong and SONG Seung-heon star in the film, which is the debut of director LEE Won-tae, who was a screenwriter on the 2015 period film The Magician and the producer of the 2011 horror romcom Spellbound.

A Hard Day (2014) star CHO, who will be back in theaters next month with the thriller Bluebeard, plays the eponymous character who is sent to prison as a young man for his role in the murder of an assassin and develops into a Korean independence fighter while behind bars after he witnesses the hardships that Korean people must endure.

Co-star SONG, who plays the villain in the film, was last seen in family comedy Wonderful Nightmare (2015) and the erotic melodrama Obsessed (2014). Joining the leads are JUNG Man-sik of Asura : The City of Madness, JUNG Jin-young (Pandora, 2016) and SIN Jeong-geun (Tunnel, 2016).

Currently in post-production, the KIDARI ENT-backed film will hit screens later this year.
