The swordsmanship of Kang Dong-won, the treasure of the Republic of Korea

- Actor Kim Shin-rok praised actor Kang Dong-won's swordsmanship and said he is a treasure that will remain in the history of Korean cinema. How did you design and prepare for the action scenes?

"Our country's action teams don't have a swordsmanship team, so it's always difficult. This time, I think the martial arts team tried something new to show something different. Everyone's efforts were evident. Personally, I want to try new swordsmanship action. When I think back to 'Gundo,' when I swung a wooden sword, my arms didn't have enough strength to stop. So I swung it a thousand times every day and started training, and I made a personal program. I built up my strength. This time, when I was preparing, I held a wooden sword and swung it, and it stopped right away. It was thanks to me starting golf. The wooden sword stopped because I kept swinging the iron. I think it was a positive effect of golf. It worked because it exercised my forearms. So this time, we focused a lot on synergy. In the beginning, the martial arts team and the director talked a lot about 'what if we tried something like this?', 'let's do it freely.'"

It was really cool during the military days, but it was also a war

The sword fighting gods are so cool
