In the years at the start of the Korean New Wave, a number of titles from the country broke out that showed the wider audience what the cinema of the country was capable of in an all-round fashion. One genre that the filmmakers there have always been rather proficient at is the romantic melodrama and works like “Christmas in August” reiterated the same at the start of the New Wave. However, in 2000 came “Ditto”, a “science-fiction” romance that was unlike something the South Korea had produced before, a feature that went on to be a big hit with the audience. The story, a high-concept romance which connects two people in different eras through a ham radio, resonated with and is much loved by audiences and storytellers alike, so much so that 22 years later, we get a modern day namesake retelling from “Go Back” director Seo Eun-young.

“Warriors of the Dawn” is an historical drama/action film set on the conflict between Korea and Japan in the year 1592. Korean historical action/war movies are somehow of a trend, and they are always a sign of quality, with films like “Roaring Currents”, “War of the Arrows” or “Kundo: Age of the Rampant”. These productions have nothing to envy from big Hollywood productions, having such an excellent production design.
Whereas “Warriors of the Dawn” is itself a clearly big and good looking production, it is not big on a great epic scale, as the locations are somehow scarce and simple but effective and beautiful at the same time.

Chung Yoon-chul’s war adventure stars Lee Jung-jae and Yeo Jin-gu.
South Korean sales company M-Line distribution has picked up Fox International Productions’ upcoming Korean production Warriors Of The Dawn (a.k.a. The Proxy Soldiers) (pictured).
Directed by Chung Yoon-chul (Marathon), the period war action adventure stars Lee Jung-jae (Assassination) and Yeo Jin-gu (Hwayi: A Monster Boy).
Back in 1592 when the Japanese were invading Korea - then the kingdom of Joseon, rich families would hire poor men to take the place of their sons in the draft. Tasked with fighting the enemy while supporting their impoverished families back home, the proxy soldiers were known to be superior combatants.
Lee plays a veteran proxy soldier who aids 18-year-old crown prince Gwanghae (played by Yeo), whose father the king fled to safety in China while ordering his young son to take over the country’s defense.
