Like the Moon Escaping From Cloud’s new preview and posters
by javabeans
The first trailer for Like the Moon Escaping From Clouds was released earlier this month, and now a longer preview has come out, along with a couple additional posters.
The historical action film pits main characters Cha Seung-won and Hwang Jung-min against each other; the former leads a rebellion to overturn the social order, while the latter is a blind swordsman who believes in protecting the world. Cha is of royal blood but was born illegitimate, and now vows to take the throne.
Meanwhile, Han Ji-hye‘s Baek-ji is characterized by sadness over a departed lover, and Baek Sung-hyun plays a young man determined to pay back his enemy. As the preview opens, Cha Seung-won says, “I didn’t dream this dream that we would all live together.” Hwang Jung-min returns, “This is a dream that we all die together!”
Like the Moon Escaping From Clouds is scheduled for an April 29 release.
Despite this preview being longer, I think I preferred the first, which explained less but made a stronger impression. On the upside, we get to see more of the cast in this one, and the acting looks strong all around.

Looks interesting...however Hwang Jung-min's character reminds me of Zatoichi.

How come every damn sword fight, there's always a scene of the Matrix move in it?

@3 LadyIgraine -
it's not a "matrix" move, that kind of action sequence was around for a long while in many movies before the matrix.
@soni -
close ties to zatoichi is not a bad thing. ichi rocks!! of course, zatoichi's skill was in the art of samurai sword drawing (iaido), and I don't think Hwang Jung-min's character practices or knows that. but I know what you're saying... there aren't too many blind swordsmen running around and so undoubtedly there will be comparisons, however fair.

I love both lead actors... so even though it's not really my kind of movie, I might have to watch it.
On another note, CSW is so not hot here. I don't know that was possible. ;)

Any movie or drama of Cha Seung Won is worth the wait! He is an excellent actor!

I know a lot of you out there think Cha Seung Won is hot, but those mutant eyebrows are a turnoff to me.

@16 chowon
I dont understand this mocking about his eyebrowes.
For me he is one of the best looking korean actor so far. I like his eyebrowes
They are well shaped an adequate to his masculine features
Better then the blind swordsmans eyebrowes...they have white endigs and look like the wings of dove...So what about this non-sense I am writing here ?
Let the actors look how they look like :)
Sorry, I suppose I am a little bit sensitive when our Gukie is concerned :P
I am looking forward for this movie because of CSW and the resti of the cast is also very much appealing. It reminds me a little bit of Chuno, but I hope its end will not be so disappointing like Chunos...(Still cant believe this)

I'm actually looking forward to this one. The somewhat awkward Eng title (because they were confident enough to not romanticize into something completely different) is also pulling me in. I've been turned off several times when the Eng title is completely different than it's original title - it makes it seem like "hotshot" overkill.

Woo~ Han Ji Hye.
Baek still reminds me of Jung Woo Sung in some parts.
:)
But my question is, will HJH act the Unnyun type of character? Cause I can't help feeling a little meh at that. To me, I think HJH, like LDH has that potential to do much more than just look pretty and helpless.
But it is a sageuk and it's historical. so...hmm.

I would watch Cha Seung-won paint white walls now that I have discovered him.

I want to see this just because of Hwang Jung-min. He's the only actor in the whole wide world that has impressed me because of his skills.
