Upcoming Netflix Original Drama “Song of the Bandits” First Drop!
“Song of the Bandits” is an action-adventure set in 1920, where people throw a wild blow against those who have driven them from their homes to protect their country, family and friends. Through fictional characters, the history of defeats is transformed into the history of victories. The project has already received a lot of attention for its theme of the Korean independence movement, as well as its estimated production cost of 30 billion won (approximately $25 million).
Kim Nam Gil takes on the role of Lee Yoon, a slave who has never learned anything and never had the opportunity to. Although the class system was abolished and he became a free man, he still has the mindset of a slave. His former master suggests that he become a soldier, so he does as he is told and ends up getting involved in the war.
Writer Han Jung Hoon and director Hwang Jun Hyuk team up again for “Song of the Bandits” after delivering spectacular, thrilling action and drama with their previous projects, including “Bad Guys: Vile City” and “Squad 38.”
The drama is set to premiere in the third quarter of 2023. Stay tuned for more updates!
