Producer Jang Si-won met with Sports Chosun at somewhere in Samcheong-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul on the afternoon of the 19th and responded to an interview to commemorate the release of Netflix 'The Greatest Rugby'.
Released on the 10th, 'strongest rugby' is a sports survival entertainment show that shows the real game of rugby players who continue their desperate advances by throwing their whole bodies for the glory of victory.
From KEPCO, the strongest Korean rugby team in name and reality, where the entire team is a national team, to Hyundai Glovis, who achieved the dignity of his second consecutive victory in the 「Korea Super Rugby League」, POSCO E&C, the fundamental foundation of power rugby, the dark horse OK Eatman Rugby Team, the Korean Armed Forces athletic unit of the spirit of investigation and invincibility, Korea University, the top predator in the university league, and Yonsei University, a rugby powerhouse with 80 years of tradition, will compete fiercely.
Producer Jang Si-won explained in an interview that `Rugby is a primitive and instinctive sport.' He said "The structure itself, which has to continue the progress like picking the ground, provides a simple yet intense sense of tension. The biggest attraction of rugby is that it is a team sport and the process of hitting comes instinctively.
There were also impressions of rugby players. Producer Jang said, `Rugby players play with sincerity without calculation, to the point where I wonder if there is such a person in this day and age"Everyone wants to win, but they're desperate to advance for the pride and sport of a team that goes beyond prize money or honor."
The atmosphere at the scene was also vividly conveyed. Producer Jang said "Players throw their whole body after the start of the game, right??Every time there is a bone-cracking sound. I tried to put it in audio, and I tried to express the real charm of rugby." Producer Jang and the production team maximized the sense of urgency and reality in the field through a detailed technical approach, such as installing microphones on each player.
As for the reaction of the players after the release of the `strongest rugby,' the players themselves were amazed to see their games through the screen. It is because dramatic images that we did not know in the stadium were embodied in the video."
Producer Jang Si-won said, `The true charm of rugby lies in the sports spirit and teamwork beyond the game. Viewers also expressed confidence that they will indulge in the passion and innocence of rugby people while watching the process."
'The Greatest Rugby' is available on Netflix.
