00:00Some people say that action movies won't succeed if the characters are female.
00:06No, action is not about male or female.
00:09Action is about characters that are captivating.
00:20Personally, I really want to tell stories about strong female characters in a cruel and sadistic world.
00:27How she has a perception of the world, there must be her own point of view.
00:32If you can't understand that, why are you here now?
00:38Every one of them is challenging.
00:41Action is very different.
00:43There must be power and flexibility too.
00:46But eventually, when you get the flow, you kind of just get it.
00:51The preparation, we practice for about two and a half months.
00:54The practice is really intensive.
00:56Because all of them are from scratch, they don't have any basics.
01:00So, we first train them physically.
01:04The practice is really hard.
01:06They have to roll around, their bodies are sore.
01:10For the girls, they must be crying.
01:13It's challenging, very long, emotionally and physically.
01:17My cameraman, my choreographer, they always look at me like,
01:20This kid is crazy.
01:22It's like a baby that still can't see the limit.
01:25Like he can keep pushing.
01:31It turns out that when we're on the road, the shooting is as hard as it is exciting.
01:35And we become friends, like really close friends.
01:38Shooting with him was also amazing because we really support each other.
01:44And I think we gained a very powerful connection.
01:48I can't watch.
01:49People think that chemistry is just for drama.
01:51But actually, in action, you also need a strong chemistry.
01:54It's really exciting, really fun.
01:56And I also learned from the acting coach how to make chemistry with my mom,
02:00make chemistry with 13.
02:03If Monji and 13, maybe there will be some special closeness.
02:09These new kids, the new generation, are actually good and talented.
02:13It's time in our film world, there is a new twist and breath.
02:20Don't forget to watch The Shadow's Race.
02:22Only on Netflix.
