KADOKAWA, KADOKAWA K Plus) 1909─An Jung-geun (An Jung-geun), a member of the Korean Righteous Army, and his comrades headed to Harbin, China, risking their lives to secure the independence of their homeland.
"Harbin" is a supreme suspense action entertainment that reinterprets the historical event that shook Asia from a modern perspective. Each of them heads to Harbin with their own mission in mind.
Cast and staff are full of passionate interviews and behind-the-scenes footage! When he was first offered the role of Ahn Jung-geun, he was confused and said, "It's scary," and "Why me?"
However, Hyun Bin felt this rare opportunity was a "great blessing" and he read the script deeply to prepare for the role.
It will move you. Director Woo Min-ho placed special importance on the story of the comrades who act together. In response to the director's thoughts, Park Jung Min (Woo Deok-sun) and Cho
- From the interviews, it can be seen that the star-studded cast who played comrades, including Woo-jin (Kim Sang-hyun), had a deep understanding of their roles and poured their passion into them.
And in the battle scenes, where director Woo Min-ho pursued realism, "(Hyun Bin) The ruthlessness of hand-to-hand combat,"
(Lee DONG WOOK) I wanted to show cruelty. (Park Hoon) I thought this was hell. As the words suggest, Hyun Bin and Lee DONG WOOK engaged in fierce hand-to-hand combat with their faces covered in mud.
The scene unfolds in a breathtaking way. One of the most memorable scenes in the film is when Ahn Jung-geun collapses alone on a frozen lake. Hyun Bin said, "Ahn's tragic
"It was an environment that gave me a strong determination," he said, and it seems the harsh environment helped him act. It's no wonder the director praised this impressive scene as "perfect."
Please pay attention to the scenes and be sure to watch it at the theater. Comments have arrived from celebrities from various fields, including Aoki Munetaka and director Furukawa Go. Commenting on the film, actor Aoki Munetaka said, "It's like an oil painting.
"The light and shadows projected in this way carefully depict the complex emotions of those involved in this historical event, including hope, suffering, anger, and prayer," said Go Furukawa, director of "Kaneko Sashiiriten" (25).
"I think that this movie will leave a deep impression on viewers for the rest of their lives," said the director, Kazuyuki Izutsu, and former House of Representatives member Megumi Kaneko.

The light and shadows are projected like an oil painting.
The hopes, anguish, anger, prayers, and other complexities of those involved in this historical event are revealed.
The film carefully depicts the emotions of the people involved. The scenes set in the freezing cold and on the train are also spectacular. Go Furukawa (director of "Kaneko's Store"): No heroes are born in war. Some heroes are turned into villains.
It's impossible. But his sorrow, pain, and nobility ask me: What choice would you make?
I'm going to have to deal with the scars from watching this movie for the rest of my life.
I can't forget the trembling breathing of An Jung-geun at the end. Kazuyuki Izutsu (film director) Japanese people must know about An Jung-geun.
I have always thought that Koreans should remember Hirobumi Ito.
This is the first time such a film has been made in Japan. Emi Kaneko (former member of the House of Representatives) In order to build constructive Japan-Korea relations, it is important to understand what kind of historical awareness each country has.
This is a work that allows us to know the true thoughts of An Jung-geun. In Korea, An Jung-geun is seen as a hero, a samurai who sacrificed his life in the anti-Japanese struggle. In Japan, however, he is known as the man who murdered Ito Hirobumi.
I hope that this will be an opportunity for Japan and South Korea to overcome their past history and build a truly friendly relationship in the Reiwa era. ●Takeda Sunaetsu (writer) People who are in a difficult situation tend to run wild. History is an accumulation of runaway behavior.
Why does this happen? It is a powerful question. And it sheds an eerie light on the modern world we live in.
A profound masterpiece that brings together the fateful relationship between Ito Hirobumi and An Jung-geun and portrays them from a Korean perspective.
It is a masterpiece. Although the historical evaluations are different, it is also a movie that reminds us that the history of Japan and Korea is a two-sided relationship.
