Second press stills from the movie 'Rebound' (director Jang Hang-jun) have been released.
On the 13th, distributor Barunson E&A Co., Ltd. released the second press still of 'Rebound', which contains the sweat and passion of youth who do not break even when they fall. 'Rebound' is a miraculous story of eight days in which the new coach and six players of the weakest basketball team that no one paid attention to ran tirelessly during the 2012 National High School Basketball Tournament.
The released stills contain all the big and small trials that came to Busan Jungang High School's basketball team, the will to stand up again even when they fall, and heartwarming moments of encouragement to give each other strength. First, the sight of Gyu-hyuk (played by Jeong Jin-woon) sitting on a bench and receiving ankle taping from Coach Kang (played by Ahn Jae-hong) is noticeable.
Attention is being paid to how Kyu-hyuk, who was a talented player but quit basketball due to an ankle injury, will overcome his limitations by joining the Jungang High School basketball team. The images of Coach Kang, who is showing a tense and confused expression as the game is not going as planned, and captains Ki-beom (played by Shin-young Lee) and Gyu-hyuk, who are in sharp confrontation, are also revealed, showing that their power and teamwork are on edge.
Also, confusion and worry can be seen in the eyes of new student Jin-wook (played by Ji-ho Ahn), who is lying on the court, his teammates looking at him, and Coach Kang. Injuries could be the biggest negative news for Busan Jungang High School, which only has six players. However, Coach Kang and the six players move forward again, struggling under the basketball goal that connected them.
Even if your stamina is so low that it is difficult to even stand, you take the opportunity to rebound and move forward toward victory. Jeong Jin-woon said, "We really became one team and became such good colleagues and friends that I wondered if this was the feeling that the friends of the Busan Jungang High School basketball team had." He said that the actors became one by overcoming difficulties together like the real Jungang High School basketball team, and that they remained strong in the midst of the crisis. It raises expectations for the teamwork of Haejin Jungang High School.
Meanwhile, 'Rebound' will be released in April.
