Song Joong Ki is currently busy promoting his latest film entitled " Bogota: The Land of Last Chance ". In a behind-the-scenes clip of the making of the film released on Monday December 16, 2024, Joong Ki and the other cast share stories about their respective roles.
"Bogota: Land of Last Chance" itself is a crime thriller about Guk Hee (Song Joong Ki), who hopes to have a new life by going to Bogota, the capital of Colombia after the IMF crisis. There, he gets involved with Soo Young (Lee Hee Joon) and Sergeant Park ( Kwon Hae Hyo ), who are influential figures in the Korean community in Bogota.
In the video, Joong Ki expressed his gratitude for being able to join this film project. He was interested in the background or filming location for the filming. "I was very happy to hear that we would be filming in Colombia," said Joong Ki.
Although he did not deny that he was surprised by the appearance of the role he played for the film. Katy Louise Saunders' husband admitted that he was surprised to see the colorful clothes he would wear during the filming process. It was very different from his personality, as well as the roles he had previously played in dramas and films.
"I was shocked when the costume director first brought me the clothes. I wondered if they were right, but when I actually went to Colombia, they were right," she said, predicting a new look featuring bright primary colors like red, blue and green.
Joong Ki also seemed to leak that he would be using a lot of Spanish while acting in his latest film. "Spanish is a language that uses a lot of energy outwardly, so I unconsciously made a lot of movements," added Joong Ki, increasing anticipation for his appearance in Spanish acting.
Hee Joon also said, “I received a lot of help on set, and I changed things that they thought didn’t sound like the original language,” and talked about the filming process where he communicated closely with the local Colombian staff to improve the perfection.
Ji Hwan added, "The story is very Korean, but not Korean," raising curiosity about the unexpected story that will unfold in the new location. Jo Hyun Chul also said, "Looking down from the plane, it was really spacious. I think maybe Guk Hee came with the same feeling."
The perfect ensemble of actors who create a unity of character with unique personalities and solid acting skills is also a must-watch. From Joong Ki who shows all the faces of his beloved character through the character of Guk Hee, to Hee Joon, Hae Hyo, Ji Hwan, Hyun Chul, and Kim Jong Soo who fill the play with their solid presence.
The released video raises expectations for the film, which was shot on foreign soil in Colombia for the first time. "Bogota: The Land of Last Chance" is scheduled to hit theaters on December 31, 2024, accompanying audiences to celebrate the end of the year.
