‘Breakthrough’ Lee Hye-young and Kim Sung-chul shared their thoughts on working together in the action scenes in the movie.

On the afternoon of the 24th, a press conference for the movie ‘Breakthrough’ was held in Yongsan-gu, Seoul.Actors Lee Hye-young, Kim Sung-chul, Yeon Woo-jin, Cynthia, and director Min Kyu-dong attended the press conference that day.

On this day, Kim Sung-chul explained about the action scenes with Lee Hye-young, “From the moment I read the script, I thought that the build-up to the final battle was important, and that it should be condensed and explode at the end.We filmed from sunrise to sunset.It was the first time that the two of them fought, so their synergy was important.Although it wasn’t all shown in the movie, we designed and filmed more action scenes.”

Lee Hye-young continued, “When we were about to start the action scenes, he got injured a lot and Sung-chul had a hard time.He practiced stunts to his heart’s content, but when he did it with me, his strength would have been different.That’s why Sung-chul must have felt disappointed.I think it’s true that I came out as a woman who was much more capable than my actual skills.”

Meanwhile, ‘Breakthrough’ is an action drama depicting an intense confrontation between Jo-gak(played by Lee Hye-young), a legendary killer who has been active for 40 years in an organization that deals with cockroach-like humans, and Tou(played by Kim Sung-chul), a mysterious killer who has chased her all her life.It will be released on the 30th.
