Netflix movie "Good News" released stills of scene-stealer actors who enriched the film and a making-of video showing the detailed production process.
In the 1970s, the film "Good News," which depicts a suspicious operation by people gathered to land a hijacked plane by any means, released stills of scene-stealer actors and a making-of video that amplified the film's appeal.
The released scene-stealer stills captivate with diverse actors whose mere presence dominates the screen and adds to the enjoyment of watching "Good News." Park Young-kyu as Deputy Minister Gap-seop of the Blue House, Yoon Kyung-ho as the director who led the operation to disguise Gimpo Airport as Pyongyang Airport and provided big laughs, Choi Deok-moon as the Minister of National Defense, and Hyun Bong-sik as the air force chief of staff vividly convey the urgency of people determined to land the plane by any means.
Also, Jeon Do-yeon, appearing as the first lady, surprised viewers by delivering an unexpected laugh along with a powerful presence. Even in a desperate moment where everyone's fate is at stake, Jeon Do-yeon maintained graceful gestures and expressions and, fully immersed in the character, added varied enjoyment to the drama.
In addition, Park Hae-soo, who plays Ryu Dol-chan in the Pyongyang control room and fiercely confronts Seo Go-myung (Hong Kyung) to hijack the communications of the hijacked plane first, creates tension with his resolute expression, leaving viewers wondering which of the two will win. Former news director Jeon Bae-soo, who becomes entangled in a plot by a certain person (Sul KyungGu), Park Ji-hwan, who appears as Seo Go-myung's father and leaves a strong impression, and Kim Si-a, who appears as a high school girl in a news interview, are among the actors with diverse charms who enliven the film and make "Good News" even richer.
The released making-of video, featuring director Byun Sung-hyun personally explaining his directing intentions and a variety of behind-the-scenes moments, draws attention. First, director Byun Sung-hyun said, "I wanted to make a film that slips up once in a while. The title is 'Good News,' but the situation the protagonist faces is by no means good news," conveying the irony in the title "Good News" and raising interest in the film. He also noted, "The elements are very diverse. I thought these contents could be made into chapters," sharing the behind-the-scenes story of the chapter-based structure that amplified the film's appeal and increasing curiosity.
About the mysterious fixer a certain person played by Sul KyungGu, he said, "He is a consummate figure not found in reality. He reads human psychology and deceives," and about elite air force Lieutenant Seo Go-myung played by Hong Kyung, he said, "He is not someone who acts out of a sense of justice but someone who acts because of personal desire or greed," and about Park Sang-hyun, the director of the Central Intelligence Agency played by Ryu Seung-beom, he said, "The character of the CIA director is usually depicted as dignified and charismatic, but this time it is not that kind of character," explaining the process of creating unique, distinctive characters seen only in "Good News."
He also said, "I wanted to show the human crowd like a stage play, so I planned storyboards and shooting schedules while thinking about the blocking," leading anticipation for director Byun Sung-hyun's unique and singular style. To enhance the film's realism, they procured an aircraft of the same model actually used in the 1970s and used diverse color tones in each space, sharing detailed production behind-the-scenes and further raising expectations for the film.
With director Byun Sung-hyun's singular style, unpredictable developments, and the actors' intense acting synergy depicting clashes among distinctive characters, the fresh and entertaining film "Good News" is streaming on Netflix.<
