The movie 'Victory' is generating anticipation with actor Lee Byung-hun's passionate performance and the well-made direction of a story that is more dramatic than the film itself.

On the 19th, the team behind the movie 'Victory' (directed by Kim Hyung-ju, distributed by By4M Studio, produced by Film Company Wolgwang, co-produced by BH Entertainment) released the viewing intro for the work.

#1. A chilling performance preview of box office champion Lee Byung-hun in movie theaters_ Korea's representative actor Lee Byung-hun acts a legend!

The first point of anticipation for the movie 'Victory' is the overwhelming acting skills of Lee Byung-hun, a box office champion in Korea. Lee Byung-hun has become a hot topic due to the amazing synchronization displayed in the released trailer and stills. He, who usually does not know much about Go, has noted that he was captivated after reading the script for 'Victory.' For this work, he took lessons from professional Go players and perfectly embodied the gestures of a pro Go player down to the fingertips that place the stones. As the owner of acting skills recognized by all, attention is focused on how Lee Byung-hun portrays the colors of Go master Cho Hun-hyun, and prospective audiences are citing Lee Byung-hun's overwhelming acting skills as the biggest viewing and anticipation point for 'Victory.'

#2. A real story more like a movie, Cho Hun-hyun VS Lee Chang-ho_ A movie adaptation of a true story that moved and impressed the entire nation

In the 2000s, athletes like Kim Yuna and Park Ji-sung excited the entire nation, while in the 1980s and 1990s, there was the God of Go, Cho Hun-hyun. The second point of anticipation for 'Victory' is that it has thrillingly adapted the story of the legendary figures in the Go world, Cho Hun-hyun and Lee Chang-ho, who are akin to twin peaks. The film 'Victory' is an adaptation of the story of Cho Hun-hyun and Lee Chang-ho, which is considered a historic match in the Korean sports world.

Cho Hun-hyun, the first Go player in Korea to achieve a grand slam title at global Go tournaments, elevated the status of Korean Go. He recorded overwhelming victories against Japan and China, the then-powerhouses in Go, leading Korea to become a Go powerhouse in the 1980s and 1990s, and accepted Go prodigy Lee Chang-ho as his apprentice.

However, after tasting the bitterness of defeat in a Go match against Lee Chang-ho, Cho Hun-hyun laid a new foundation and transformed into a legendary champion challenging for the top once again. At that time, the whole nation was enthusiastic about the match between Cho Hun-hyun and Lee Chang-ho, feeling both admiration and emotion, which has significantly heightened expectations for the movie 'Victory.' The film will portray the delicate emotional line of Cho Hun-hyun based on the relationship between him and Lee Chang-ho and will once again ignite the Go syndrome in Korea.

#3. Actors, directors, and production staff are presenting a new horizon to the Korean film industry_ A film completed with well-made direction

The third point of anticipation for 'Victory' is the artistic quality completed by a well-made lineup of actors, directors, and production staff. 'Victory' boasts an impeccable lineup of actors, from box office champion Lee Byung-hun, who overwhelms the screen with his solid acting skills, to Ko Chang-seok, Hyun Bong-sik, Moon Jung-hee, Kim Kang-hoon, and special appearance by Jo Woo-jin, garnering a lot of attention.

In addition, Kim Hyung-ju, who debuted successfully with the film 'Confidential Assignment' and is part of director Yoon Jong-bin's crew, has taken the megaphone for 'Victory,' establishing itself early on as one of the most anticipated films of March. Amidst the high expectations of the audience, not only the actors and the director but also the details from the production staff have sparked discussions. 'Victory' received advice from professional Go players for every shooting session where Go matches are held, ensuring not only cinematic enjoyment but also adherence to the principles of Go.

Furthermore, to recreate the atmosphere of Seoul in the 1980s and 1990s, extensive efforts were made to select locations in the city that exude the 90s vibe, and every prop was meticulously chosen to reflect the period accurately. The costumes for the actors were also carefully crafted to reflect both the period's atmosphere and the personalities of the characters, with Lee Byung-hun wearing as many as 50 different outfits during filming. 'Victory,' completed with the passion of its actors, director, and production staff, is expected to be mentioned as a work that possesses both commercial potential and artistic quality. It is set to be released on Wednesday, the 26th.
