Gang Dong-won starring film "Wild Sing" meets global fans as it is released on Netflix.
Netflix confirmed the release of the film "Wild Sing" on Fri., July 31.
The film "Wild Sing," which filled theaters with laughter through the quick banter of distinctive characters and high-quality music and performances, will meet viewers worldwide via Netflix on Fri., the 31st. "Wild Sing" is a comedy about a once-dominant mixed-gender three-member dance group called "Triangle" that swept the music scene but suddenly disbanded overnight after an unexpected incident, and now embarks on a reckless challenge to seize a comeback opportunity 20 years later.
"Wild Sing" is a work in which Extreme Job's production company About Film and director Son Jae-gon, who has showcased original humor and solid directing in films such as Sweet, Savage Lovers and The Villain on the Second Floor, joined forces, and it received favorable reviews from domestic audiences for its nonstop laughter amid unpredictable situations and the ecstatic synergy of its strong, distinctive characters.
Here, the gathering of Gang Dong-won, Um Tae-goo and Park Ji-hyun as the 2000s mixed-gender dance group "Triangle" and Oh Jung-se's shocking transformation into the original earworm boyfriend and tragic ballad prince "Seong-gon" offered audiences freshness and drew attention. Moreover, the debut song "Love is" by "Triangle," meticulously produced by K-pop specialist producers, and "Niga Joha" by "Choi Seong-gon" climbed music charts and sparked a challenge craze, generating major buzz and captivating the eyes and ears of audiences across generations.
"Wild Sing," which led summer theaters with a soundtrack and performances that fully evoke the nostalgia of early K-pop, Y2K styling rich in detail, and the delightful banter chemistry of distinctive characters, is expected to continue that momentum as it meets global viewers via Netflix from Fri., July 31. Netflix will support subtitles in 32 languages, including French, Portuguese and Chinese, and dubbing in 15 languages, including English, Spanish and Japanese, for viewers worldwide.
Ahead of "Wild Sing" being released on Netflix, Lotte Entertainment said, "We aim to expand the passionate response we received in domestic theaters to the global market through Netflix. Beyond cultural barriers, this will be a good opportunity for Korean comedy films to build a global fandom."
Audiences are eager to see what response global fans will have to the film "Wild Sing," which contains the fantastic banter of highly distinctive characters, nonstop laughter, and music and performances that captivate the eyes and ears.
Meanwhile, "Wild Sing" opened in domestic theaters on the 3rd of last month and surpassed a cumulative audience of 1.3 million. Gang Dong-won took on an idol role for the first time since his debut and challenged breakdancing, and Oh Jung-se, who played a ballad singer, drew attention by creating an unprecedented character.
