Handsome Actor Yoo Yeon Seok Will Serve As North Korean Leader In A New Film titled 'Steel Rain 2: Summit'. The film, also starring Jung Woo Sung, is planned to be released on the upcoming July 29th.
Not long ago handsome actor Yoo Yeon Seok underwent an interview to discuss his new film titled "Steel Rain 2: Summit". He explained about the preparations he did in playing a North Korean leader.
"Steel Rain 2: Summit" itself tells of a crisis that was revealed right before the war, when three leaders who attended the Korea-United States Summit were kidnapped. They were placed on a nuclear-powered submarine owned by North Korea.
The character Yoo Yeon Seok in the film is portrayed as a person who is able to speak English well. That's why he acted as an interpreter for the President of South Korea and the President of the United States.
Yoo Yeon Seok said that she had a lot of worries when shooting this film. "I was worried and had a lot of worries about it. But I decided to start asking myself, 'If I were a leader, what would I look like?'" He said.
"There are differences in the dialects of some regions in North Korea and the accent is also different depending on where he was born. I learned this role by watching videos of interviews of real North Korean leaders and I also received training from defectors from North Korea," he explained.
On the other hand, director Yang Woo Seok expressed his satisfaction with Yoo Yeon Seok's acting in this film. "Yoo Yeon Seok is always good at playing a determined character by following the path he wants himself. I want to choose him because the North Korean leader is a character like that, although there are some differences in it," explained director Yang Woo Seok.
Meanwhile, "Steel Rain 2: Summit" will be released in South Korean theaters on July 29. Besides Yoo Yeon Seok, the film also stars actors Jung Woo Sung and Angus Macfadyen.
