In an interview with Sports Chosun on the afternoon of the 10th, Joo Ji-hoon delivered a behind-the-scenes story of the disaster movie 'Escape: PROJECT SILENCE' (hereinafter 'Escape', directed by Kim Tae-gon, produced by Vlad Studio).
'Escape' is a story of people struggling to survive out-of-control military experimental dogs released on the airport bridge on the verge of collapse after a series of crashes in thick fog. Joo Ji-hoon played the lead character Jo Park, a Lexa driver who aims for a shot in life in the play.
Joo Ji-hoon confessed his grievances about the scene in the movie, where he held whiskey and fired a fire to restrain a military dog. He said "I was on fire, and the car driver who was helping the scene was surprised to see me. Maybe because I'm a beginner, I think I filmed it with much more tension than I thought. Alcohol burned into the salivary glands and caused inflammation. Of course, I could have done it with CG, but I'm not good at mime acting. There's an act I want, but I can't do it with a fake one. When I was young, I watched a car show and imitated it with curiosity, so I had a feeling. Still, it could be dangerous. I tried to work hard, though."
Joo Ji-hoon said that the scene where he struggled by crumpling himself in the trunk was also not easy. He "I was so surprised that I had to get into the trunk on the scene and act. On the one hand, I was shooting a summer blockbuster, and I couldn't understand that everything else was CG, but not as much as a trunk"I shuddered.
Then "It was really physically difficult to get into the trunk and act. I filmed that scene for five days. I felt sorry for Jodie the dog as well as me. Don't we usually get numb if we do our legs for a long time? It was just like that. I thought my shoulder was breaking. The trunk scene wasn't an action sum, it was just harder when the pain I had to deal with actually came."
Joo Ji-hoon "Of course, you can ask the field for understanding that it's hard, but isn't everyone hard and tired?" I couldn't bear to complain in it. Curiously 'I'll try it' he acted. I'm in a position to take responsibility, but I can't say I can't. What's the face. Still, foreign correspondents were curious about how they filmed it at the Cannes Film Festival. It's rewarding when you're curious about technical perfection" he said.
The late Lee Sun-kyun, Joo Ji-hoon, Kim Hee-won, Moon Sung-geun, Seo Jae-jung, Kim Tae-woo, Park Hee-bon, Park Joo-hyun, and Kim Soo-an appeared in 'Escape', and director Kim Tae-gon of 'Goodbye Single' took the megaphone. It will be released on the 12th.
