The behind-the-scenes of the film 'Hi Five' has been released.
On the 17th, the production team of the film 'Hi Five' (written and directed by Kang Hyung-Chul, provided/distributed by NEW, produced by Annapurna Film) unveiled the third behind-the-scenes still showcasing the creation process of iconic action scenes.
'Hi Five' is a comedic action spectacle that depicts the story of five individuals who, by chance, gain different superpowers through organ transplants and encounter those who seek to exploit their abilities. After its release, it has surpassed 1.5 million viewers, maintaining the top spot at the box office.
The stills released this time capture the hard work of the actors and production team to visualize the superpower action. First, Jae-In Lee had to run continuously to express one of Wonsoo's superpowers, which is speed. Based on the setting that Wonsoo's stride is 3 meters, Jae-In's movements were shot at approximately 2,000 times the speed at various locations, followed by close collaboration with the VFX team, resulting in thrilling hill-running scenes and breathtaking cart-chasing sequences.
Jaehong Ahn, who plays 'Jiseong' with the ability to sweep away everything with typhoon-like winds, showcased a professional-level performance by vividly imagining objects or target points in every scene. It is rumored that Jae-In Lee and Jeong-Se Oh, appearing as a father and daughter duo in Taekwondo, repeatedly practiced together to complete a unique 1+1 action chemistry. In particular, Jae-In Lee underwent an impressive 10 months of action training to express her Taekwondo-based superpowers, performing most scenes without a stunt double, which drew admiration.
The underground chapel of the New Protestant Church is the climax space where the 'Hi Five' members confront the villain 'Young-Chun' in the latter part of the film. Amidst efforts to reveal Young-Chun's insatiable greed through overwhelming scale and dazzling visuals, Jinyoung Park, who plays Young-Chun, not only trained his body with high-intensity workouts to showcase the character's superhuman strength, but also performed high-difficulty moves including wire actions, creating a compelling and intense villain.
'Hi Five' is currently being screened enthusiastically in theaters nationwide.
