'Song of the Sun' is a remake of a Japanese film of the same name that was released in 2007 and created a boom in the genre of 'Youth Romance' in Korea. The original Japanese work 'Song of the Sun' was also remade in Hollywood as 'Midnight Sun', proving to be a beloved work from all over the world.
The mega-hit song in Hollywood, Japan, will meet new audiences this year with Korean sensibilities. At this moment, 'Song of the Sun', which will properly tell the emotions of young people who are worried about the future and love, is expected to captivate the audience with a different charm from the original and Hollywood work.
A moving poster containing the atmosphere of 'Song of the Sun', which will be released in May, is also released along with the news of the release, attracting attention.
The moving poster of 「Song of the Sun」, which contains the warm sunlight shining on the guitar in the room of Misol (Jung Ji-so), who dreams of becoming a singer-songwriter, adds to the audience's expectations as the OST of the movie hummed by Jung Ji-so is inserted as background music.
Jung Ji-so, who was loved by the public for her performances in box office hits such as Netflix's original 『The Glory" and Bong Joon-ho's film 『Parasite"』, will play Misol and Cha Hak-yeon, who showed impressive acting skills in the drama 『Desert Diva"』, will play Min-joon as a youth who learns about love and dreams through each other.
Director Cho Young-joon, who was loved by me with a warm gaze on the character, took the megaphone for the first time in eight years following 'Chaebi'. Director Cho Young-joon is expected to fascinate the theater this summer with the charm of 'Song of the Sun', which is more attractive than the original, adding his own sensibility to his previous work.
In particular, the OST of 'Song of the Sun' directly participated in the singing and further upgraded the quality of the music. Musician Lee Chan-hyuk, who was a hit with each song released expanding his own musical world view, joins as the first movie music director in his life, and Lee Chan-hyuk presents an OST complete with the voices of Jung Ji-so and Cha Hak-yeon based on the unrivaled genius shown in his hits. In this moving poster, you can check the OST produced by Lee Chan-hyuk in advance, raising expectations from prospective audiences.
The remake of the Japanese movie of the same name directed by Norichiro Koizumi is a story about a woman and a man who can only date in the middle of the night falling in love with each other through music and challenging to achieve their dreams together. Jung Ji-so, Cha Hak-yeon, Jung Woong-in, Jin Kyung, and Kwon Kwon-sol appeared, and director Cho Young-joon of 'Chaebi' took the megaphone. It will be released on May 28.
