Ryu Seung-ryong Shares Behind-the-Scenes Stories of 'AMAZON BULLSEYE'
Ryu Seung-ryong shared behind-the-scenes stories from the film 'AMAZON BULLSEYE'.
On the 22nd, a press screening and conference for the movie 'AMAZON BULLSEYE' was held at Megabox COEX in Samseong-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul. Director Kim Chang-joo and actors Ryu Seung-ryong, Jin Seon-kyu, and Yum Hye-ran attended the event.
'AMAZON BULLSEYE' is a comedic action film about Jin-bong, who faces a restructuring crisis at his company and meets three warriors with exceptional archery skills in the Amazon.
Ryu Seung-ryong plays Jin-bong, a former national archery team member who becomes a target for restructuring at his company. Jin Seon-kyu plays Bang-sik, a Korean-Bolivian interpreter, while Yum Hye-ran portrays Soo-hyun, Jin-bong's wife who helps the Amazon warriors adapt to life in Korea.
Ryu Seung-ryong stated, “I learned traditional Korean archery during 'War of the Arrows'. A few years ago, I developed an interest in archery and started practicing it. When I received this project, I was excited to take it on. Although Korea is known for archery, there were rules and terms I learned for the first time. It was great to introduce something new.”
Ryu Seung-ryong and Jin Seon-kyu traveled to Brazil for location shooting. Ryu commented, “We had amazing comedic actors with us. The two of us represented the team in the Amazon. The travel time alone was 40 hours. It seems to be the farthest place we can reach from Korea. It was a great experience collaborating globally with Korean staff and local extras.” He added, “Capturing the lives of the indigenous people and the vast nature of the Amazon was an achievement.”
'AMAZON BULLSEYE' is set to be released on the 30th.
