neih212 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 More info about "Secret Agent" Thanks you so much @GilianWarner Bros. Finances Korean Movie With Stars Song Kang Ho And Gong YooAccording to the entertainment industry publication, Variety, the Hollywood studio Warner Bros. is about to finance and distribute its first Korean language film. The film "Secret Agent" is set in the 1930s during the time when Japan controlled Korea. It focuses on resistance fighters known as the Heroic Corps, a group that uses violent means to achieve Korean independence.The film stars Korean actors Song Kang Ho and Gong Yoo. Song, who achieved international fame with "Snowpiercer," also starred in the films "The Face Reader," "The Attorney" and "The Throne." Gong Yoo is known for both his work in dramas such as "Coffee Prince" and films such as "Silenced" and "The Suspect.""Secret Agent" will be the fourth film in which director Kim Jee Won and actor Song Kang Ho collaborate. They worked together on "The Quiet Family," "The Foul King" and "The Good, The Bad, The Weird."Director Kim Jee Won previously directed the films "I Saw The Devil" and the horror film "A Tale of Two Sisters." He also directed an English language film "The Last Stand."With this production, Warner Bros. became the second Hollywood studio to finance a Korean language film. Fox previously financed "Intimate Enemies" and "Slow Video."Variety described the Korean film industry as one of the most "vibrant" in the world and said that the nation had the world's sixth biggest box office territory, putting it ahead of Russia and Germany. Warner Bros will not only finance and distribute the film but also handle the Korean theatrical release.Production begins in October, with filming locations in both Korea and China.Financing and distributing the film in the U.S., means that Warner Bros can make a final call on how the film is shown there. That can potentially result in two versions of the films, one for Korea and another for North America. Before the Weinstein Company distributed Bong Joon Ho's dystopian film "Snowpiercer" in North America, they insisted on some changes. The film in its original version had already earned critical praise. However, 20 minutes of footage was cut from the U.S. release, making it more of an action movie.The goal, according to the Weinstein Company, was to make sure the film was "understood by audiences in Iowa and Oklahoma." Introductory and closing voiceovers were added.Whether "Secret Agent" will have both a Korean and North American version is not yet known.http://www.kdramastars.com/articles/93146/20150811/warner-bros-finances-korean-movie-with-stars-song-kang-ho-and-gong-yoo.htm 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first ever Korean-language film by Hollywood’s Warner Bros. Entertainment, “Secret Agent” is going to be set in the time frame of the 1930s. The plot will revolve around an armed resistance group fighting for independence against Japan’s colonial rule. “Han is going to be the only female actress in the independence movement squad. She will have a romantic chemistry with Gong Yoo,” the Korean media said.“Snowpiercer” actor Song Gang-ho was confirmed for the lead protagonist role in August.Korea’s Withus Film, which worked with Song on the successful 2013 film “The Attorney,” will produce “Secret Agent,” while Warner Bros. will directly handle the movie’s theatrical release. Award-winning director Kim Jee-woon of “I Saw the Devil” (2010) will take the directorial duties. Kim and Song worked together for films such as “The Quiet Family” (1998), “The Foul King” (2000) and “The Good, The Bad, The Weird” (2008).

Guest newhere Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 (edited) @neih212 Thanks for the pictures ... Gong Yoo and Han Ji Min really look good together just like BinMin.I wonder if Secret Agent's story is similar to Capital Scandal minus the fun/comedy scene of course.... both have the theme freedom fighter during the Japanese Colonization but definitely SA will be a serious/action movie with a little touch of romance. I wonder what JM character will be ... will it be someone similar to Na Yeo Kyung (innocent newbie in the group) or Cha Song Joo (sharp shooter assassin, who uses her charm to lure her victims). Maybe a combination of both characterNo matter this movie will definitely enhance Ji Min's acting ability !!! ... really hope she ACCEPT the offer.
