Park Seo-joon and IU, climax in Hungary

The Hungarian location filming of the movie 'Dream' (directed by Lee Byung-hun) has been released.

On the 6th, distributor PlusM Entertainment released the 'Dream' Hungary location filming that vividly captures the excitement of the once-in-a-lifetime Homeless Football World Cup. 'Dream' is the story of Hong Dae (played by Park Seo-joon), a clueless former soccer player, and So-min (played by IU), a passionless producer, who challenge an impossible dream with a ragtag group of homeless national team players.

'Dream', a newly created movie based on the theme of the Homeless World Cup in which Korea first participated in 2010, captured a more vivid sense of reality through location filming in Hungary. Soulless soccer player Hongdae, Passionless PD Somin, and the homeless soccer team all have different reasons and stories, but the production crew and actors did not stop working for the scene of the Homeless Football World Cup, the final destination for those who never stop challenging their dreams.

The actors, who developed a strong teamwork during filming in Budapest for about a month, are expected to increase the audience's immersion by showing deeper chemistry, like the homeless soccer team that gradually becomes one team in the movie. In particular, the passionate performances of the actors, who give their all for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, will not only bring pleasant laughter but also heartbreaking emotions.

In addition, the production team's detailed efforts to create realistic game scenes also add to expectations. In order to capture the intense movement on the pitch, we went through pre-rehearsal as well as camera tests to raise the level of perfection of the game scenes. Director Lee Byung-hun said, “It was a more difficult task than an action film that had to be thoroughly calculated, and I took my time and put a lot of effort into it.”

Meanwhile, 'Dream' will be released on the 26th.
