While the film 'pilot' is drawing attention as an expected film this summer, attention is also being paid to director Kim Han-kyul, who directed the film. Director Kim Han-kyul debuted in October 2019 with 'Most Ordinary Dating' and was well received by both critics and audiences. In particular, his witty directing ability to twist reality to the exterior of the romantic comedy genre won sympathy from audiences of all ages and recorded 2.92 million viewers, making a remarkable debut as a new director.
Above all, director Kim Han-kyul's talent, which reinterprets realistic situations that can be encountered in daily life with a unique gaze and humor, will be more prominent in 'pilot'. Director Kim Han-gyeol said, `I tried to catch both fun and meaning through various episodes experienced by various characters of different ages and genders," he said, expressing his intention to direct. In addition, due to the nature of the comedy genre, "'pilot' is a movie that has created details with actors. I tried to make a movie that everyone could enjoy" He told a pleasant behind-the-scenes story of the shooting.
Director Kim Han-kyul, who won the 30th Blue Dragon Film Awards for his first short film 'Watching' while in college, and the Best Film in the Comedy King category at the 10th Miseensen Short Film Festival for 'Sulle', was recognized for his talent for 'Comedy'. This career is reminiscent of the case where Lee Sang-geun, who successfully debuted in commercial feature films with 'Exit', won the Best Picture Award in the Comedy King category at the 5th Miseensen Short Film Festival, further raising expectations for director Kim Han-kyul's directing.
Meanwhile, 'pilot' is a comedy that takes place when Han Jung-woo (Cho Jung-seok), who became unemployed overnight in the Star Pilot, succeeds in re-employment after a drastic transformation, and will be released on July 31.
