Singer Rain Stars In 'R2B', Korea's First Aerial Blockbuster Movie!


Singer Rain Stars In 'R2B', Korea's First Aerial Blockbuster Movie!
Singer and Actor Jung Ji Hoon (Rain) is starring in a Korean blockbuster, "R2B: Return to Base."
As the August release date looms near, people are wondering if the movie will be able to change the history of Korean blockbusters. 
"R2B" is about pilots from the 21st regiment who will work to save the Korean peninsula from an impending crisis and disaster. This is the first aerial action Korean movie. The chase and actions scenes are all supposedly to take place in the Seoul airspace.

These scenes are reminiscent of Hollywood movies like "Top Gun" and audiences are already very used to such high intensity air action scenes. However audiences must remember that these scenes are hard to film and they have never really had a presence in Korean cinema.
Director Kim Dong Won attended the press conference held on July 13 and said, "The shoot was very difficult because there was no one really around who already had the know-how of how to carry out these scenes. I definitely referenced 'Top Gun' or 'Mach 2.6' and focused on their problems and how best we could shoot scenes that resembled their quality."
The R2B production actually used minimal CG and carried out the shoot up to 13,000km in the air. They also worked with the help of a Hollywood crew who had been a part of "Inception" and "The Dark Knight" for filming the F-15K and TA-50 jet planes. 
This is good reason for the expectations of "R2B" to be very high. "R2B" could make history as the first aerial Korean blockbuster and people hope that it will pave the way for future aerial action dramas in Korea.
