”Hijack” starring Ha Jung Woo and Yeo Jin Goo is based on a true story... Cinematic fun and suspense PENG SOO adds imagination

"Hijack," which opened this summer's theaters as a much-anticipated hit, is a film that adds to the interest of viewers by focusing on the so-called hijacking incidents that actually raged around the world in the 1970s.
The movie "Hijack" depicts the extreme situation that unfolds when a passenger plane is abducted in the air above Korea in 1971.

The period when the most incidents occurred was between 1968 and 1972, when 325 incidents occurred in five years (according to statistics from the Federal Aviation Administration). After that, air marshals were stationed on board aircraft at all times, and X-ray inspections and metal detectors were used.
Security measures were strengthened, including the introduction of new aircraft, and the number of hijackings began to decrease rapidly.

Ha Jung Woo, who plays Tae In, learns for the first time that such a thing happened due to the "hijacking" scenario, and is shocked by the TV Series-like events.
"I was surprised to learn that it actually happened. The story begins with a real incident as a motif, but it is a very excellent work with cinematic appeal and suspense," he said, adding that it is a TV series-like enjoyment that goes beyond the real incident.
Director Kim Sung-han also said, "When I heard about the plane abduction incident in 1971, I thought that this was a story that could not be found anywhere else in the world, and that there was a lot that could be done if I made it into a movie.
