Prettysup Posted September 7, 2020 Author Share Posted September 7, 2020 New pics and I only translated parts of new info in the article today: 'The Swordsman' Jang Hyuk's Intense Swordsmanship X Extreme Action with Explosive Energy Director Choi Jae-hoon, who directed "The Swordsman," added expectations to the upgraded Jang Hyuk's swordsmanship action, saying, "To break away from the existing historical drama swordsmanship, we devised a new swordmanship based on actual martial arts and Tae-yul's unique physical movements." As such, Jang Hyuk, who is recognized as the best action actor of any genre, will capture the hearts of audiences with his cheerful and realistic swordplay by performing his own high-level action in "The Swordsman." The movie "The Swordsman," which released a still "extreme action" featuring actor Jang Hyuk's new style of swordplay action, is scheduled to be released on September 23, 2020. http://enews.imbc.com/News/RetrieveNewsInfo/292096 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prettysup Posted September 8, 2020 Author Share Posted September 8, 2020 Jang Hyuk X Kim Hyun-soo X Jeong Man-sik X Lee Na-kyung, Live Chat greeting on the 10th Sept. The 'Swordsman' team greets you through a live chat. The movie "The Swordsman (Director Choi Jae-hoon)" team will meet with prospective audiences through a live chat on Kakao Talk at 8 p.m. on this Thursday. "The Swordsman" is a real chase action that begins when Tae-yul, the best swordsman of Joseon who turned his back on the world, raises his sword again to find his lost daughter after the deposition of Gwanghaegun. Jang Hyuk, played by Tae-yul, the best swordsman of Joseon, Kim Hyun-soo as Tae-ok, the daughter of Tae-yul, who has kept secrets to surprise the world, Jeong Man-sik as Min Seung-ho, the king's guard officer called the First Sword of Joseon, and Lee Na-kyung as Hwa-seon, a female swordsman who has survived the world with one dagger. Real swordsmanship action talk and VR game TMI talk, which will give you a preview of the colorful swordsmanship in the movie, will verify the actors' action skills. In addition, it is expected that the actors who worked with each character will provide a perfect synergy by providing a pleasant time to find Jang Hyuk's voice, which is hidden among the voices of the vocal mimicry talents. Rumor has it that there will be time for the audience to solve movie quizzes and communicate with the actors. You can watch "Swordsman" Kakao Talk Live Chat on KakaoTalk and Daum app, and the movie will be released on the 23rd Sept. http://isplus.live.joins.com/news/article/article.asp?total_id=23866818 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking why didn't they draw a direct arrow between the woman and Tae-yul ? But there surely is something wrong with his eyes, from the trailer. No mention of his wife too right? The daughter is the link between Tae-yul and the woman.. Maybe they will give more hints during the talk? But they really should do more promotion for the movie already, it's been too quiet. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all it is only 100 minutes long,can't reveal too much haha. Anyway about the wife, my guess is that she is dead, since divorce in the Joseon era must be quite rare. But how did she die? During childbirth or killed by the Ming or Qing people? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azureblue7 Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 1 hour ago, Prettysup said: New post on CGV facebook - with emphasis on the different weapons the characters use in the movie An article to go along with the video. Let's take a look at the variety of swords and various sword fighting styles of the best swordsmen across the Joseon and Qing dynasties. The video released this time attracts attention as you can see at a glance the characteristics of the different weapons and items of the strongest swordsman characters who have curated the era of chaos with one sword. In addition, it contains the sparkling charisma and action pleasure of the actors who have completed all-time gladiator actions like the characters in a game. Taeyul, the best swordsman in Joseon, who used only defense techniques to turn his back on the world and hide his identity, draws attention when his action instinct awakened. Like the line saying, “A sword is just stabbing and cutting,” Taeyul uses a double-edged sword and demonstrates an animalistic sense of overpowering opponents at a faster rate than anyone else, and a swordsmanship of unrivaled speed. In addition, the Qing dynasty imperial Gurutai (Joe Taslim), the target of Taeyul's pursuit, boasts a gorgeous sword that shows off himself as a sword madman who feels joy in fighting only for a strong opponent, and a powerful swordsmanship that uses powerful power. Hwaseon (Lee Nakyung), a female swordsman who has endured the world with a single dagger, has a double-edged sword with gold and mother-of-pearl patterns. The best swordsman group of the Qing Dynasty who came to Korea with Gurutai also added personality to the gladiator action style with a brass-decorated sword and a sharp half-moon-shaped unique sword. As such, the movie'Swordsman', which is raising expectations by releasing a video that allows us to glimpse different martial arts styles through the swords of the best swordsmen of the Joseon and Qing dynasties, is expected to bring action pleasure to the theater district this fall through a gladiator action that has never been seen before. 'Swordsman', which revealed the swords and swordsmanship of the best swordsmen with different personalities, is scheduled to be released on September 23. .
