Netflix confirmed the worldwide release of the movie “The Match”.
Netflix confirmed the worldwide release of the movie “The Match” starring Lee Byung Hun and Yoo Ah In. “The Match” is the story of a Go master who has to compete inevitably with his student. It is based on the true story of 9-dan professional Go players Cho Hun Hyun and Lee Chang Ho, a teacher and a disciple who had no choice but to become rivals. “The Sheriff in Town” director Kim Hyung Joo grabs the megaphone and MoonLight Film Company is in charge of producing.
Cho Hun Hyun and Lee Chang Ho. The two names that dominated the world when Go was hotter than the World Cup are still legends and still active. Lee Byung Hun plays Cho Hun Hyun, who discovers the talent of 10-year-old Lee Chang Ho, lives with him and teaches him right after achieving Go’s world grand slam. Yoo Ah In plays Lee Chang Ho. He struggles hard to overcome his teacher Cho Hun Hyun, who is like a huge wall.
These two actors’ first collaboration is enough to make viewers curious about “The Match”. The appearance of the two actors in the still cut, which captures the moment just before the historic match between a teacher and a disciple begins, adds interest to the tension between the two along with the transformation that seems to have gone back to the 1990s.
“The Match” raises expectations as it is produced by MoonLight Film Company, which produced Netflix’s series “Narco-Saints” and movies such as “The Spy Gone North”, “A Violent Prosecutor”, “The Sheriff in Town”… Lee Byung Hun will meet viewers around the world again through Netflix following “Squid Game”, while Yoo Ah In will meet viewers around the world again through Netflix following the movie “#Alive”, the series “Hellbound” and the movie “Seoul Vibe”.
“The Match”, which is highly anticipated thanks to the dynamic story of Cho Hun Hyun and Lee Chang Ho, a teacher and a disciple becoming rivals, and the first meeting between Lee Byung Hun and Yoo Ah In, will be released worldwide only through Netflix.
