The official poster and trailer for the film 'Jjanggu', starring actor Jung Woo and directed by Jung Woo and Oh Seong-ho, have been unveiled.
'Jjanggu' is a spirited and heartwarming drama about Jjanggu (played by Jung Woo), a genius at auditions who, despite constant setbacks and disappointments, perseveres with the dream of becoming an actor. It is the sequel to the film 'Wind'.
The released official poster captures the attention with a scene of Jjanggu (Jung Woo), Jang Jae (Shin Seung-ho), and Kkang Naeng-i (Jo Beom-gyu) standing side by side, smiling at each other. The joyful moment shared among the friends, centered around Jjanggu, vividly conveys the chemistry between the three characters. The phrase 'The Wind Will Come True' and the title 'Jjanggu' filling the poster intuitively depict the story of youth enduring towards their dreams.
The official trailer begins with Jjanggu throwing himself into an audition, met with the cold response, "Yes, that's enough," making the audience feel the harsh reality. The phrase "Failed 99th audition" appears, followed by moments of joy with friends and awkward emotions in love, unfolding Jjanggu's tumultuous journey of youth survival. The phrase "Even if I fall 99 times, I will rise 100 times" powerfully imprints the film's message, symbolizing the attitude of youth who continue to challenge despite setbacks. Jjanggu's line, "I don't know how to do anything else," evokes a realistic empathy.
'Jjanggu' is a film that encapsulates laughter, reality, and the meaning of enduring time. It aims to deliver deep empathy and support through a story focused on the process rather than the result of success. 'Jjanggu' is set to be released in theaters nationwide on April 22.
