On the morning of the 22nd, a press conference was held at the entrance of Lotte Cinema Konkuk University in Jayang-dong, Gwangjin-gu, Seoul, on the production of political films 'Land of Happiness' (directed by Choo Chang-min, produced by Papas Film and Oscar 10 Studio). The production briefing session was attended by Cho Jung-seok as lawyer Jeong In-hoo, who does everything in his power to make a legitimate trial, Yoo Jae-myung as Jeon Sang-doo, the head of the joint chief of the center of huge power who eavesdrops on the trial in a closed room and controls the results, Jeon Bae-soo as trial lawyer Boo Han-myung, Song Young-kyu as trial lawyer Choi Yong-nam, Choi Won-young as military prosecutor Baek Seung-ki, and director Choo Chang-min.
Yoo Jae-myung is an iconic figure of his time on a character inspired by Chun Doo-hwan. They weigh down citizens and use expedient methods that are not common sense. It is also true that the motif is real people. I tried to do my best not to hurt the decision of the work."
'Land of Happiness' is a story of a secretary accompanying the intelligence chief who was involved in the assassination of the president by orders of his superiors and a lawyer who entered Korea's worst political trial by defending him. This film depicts the true story of Army Colonel Park Heung-joo, who was involved in the murder of former President Park Chung-hee on Oct. 26, 1979, and lawyer Tae Yoon-ki, who defended him. Cho Jung-seok, Lee Sun-kyun, and Yoo Jae-myung appeared, and director Choo Chang-min of 'Gwanghae, The Man Who Became King'7 Years' Night' took the megaphone. It will be released on August 14.
