Uhm + Hwang + Ryu: Dream team?
by javabeans
Uhm Tae-woong, Hwang Jung-min, Ryu Seung-beom
The actors: Uhm Tae-woong (Cell Phone, Devil), Hwang Jung-min (Happiness, Black House) and Ryu Seung-beom (Bloody Tie, Crying Fist).
The director: Lee Joon-ik (The King and the Clown, Shadows in the Palace).
The movie: Like a Moon Escapes From Clouds [구름을 벗어난 달처럼; a working title].
(Is this gonna be intense or what?)
For this latest project, Hwang Jung-min and Ryu Seung-beom, who have been friends since both were unknowns, are teaming up again three years after sharing the screen in Bloody Tie. Uhm Tae-woong rejoins Lee after having worked together on the Vietnam War-era You’re Far Away, aka Sunny (for which lead actress Su Ae won a bunch of awards last year).
The film is actually based on a manhwa of the same name by Park Heung-yong, and takes place following the Japanese invasion of Korea in 1592. Bringing on three such strong actors to work with director Lee makes this a highly anticipated project for the coming year — I don’t know about the plot, but the casting sure raises some expectations — and the film is scheduled to begin filming at the end of March.

Am I first by any chance? (that would be a first)
Anyways, I feel like I haven't seen Ryu Seung-Beom in a while(or maybe it's just that I haven't watched kmovies in a while) I can't wait for this movie to come out, I'm looking forward to seeing their acting. :]
Thanks for the update dramabeans ^_^

That is definitely an amazing cast but, Lee Joon Ik is making me wanna die -___-
I thought Sunny was the worst movie I ever saw from 2008,
The King And The Clown was well reviewed but I didn't care for it,
and Shadow In The Palace wasn't anything to write home about.
God I hope this doesn't blow......

Great cast~ + Great director = the excitement @__________@
I really really really really really want to watch this XD
I actually like The King and The Clown ^^ it was extremely sad and touching, and the style they used to portray things......
Than again, I watched it after I watched The King and I so I felt sad for the kid at the end -> King in the King and The Clown, so I couldnt hate him entirely XD

RSB has a great knack for choosing great scripts minus one but I have great faith that this will be a good one.

i honestly can't imagine ryu SB talk like they do in saeguk...but it'll be exciting?! (like his Dachimawa villain in "1930s".) all 3 i feel are best in urban, "gritty" settings that allow them lots of movement and energy. this sound like mucho action!

"I thought Sunny was the worst movie I ever saw from 2008,"
Sunny had its moments, and the cinematography was gorgeous. War-time road trip narratives are hard to pull off cinematically, because you're missing the interior monologue that should be flowing through the piece. I think Soo Ae struggled with her character's motivations too, and her performance didn't really shed sufficient light on why Sunny went so far for him. Jeong Jin-yeong was great in it. Very very far from the king roles he's played in JJY's work. Personally, I think Lee Joong-ik was just itching to have His War Movie on his resume.
