“The Battleship Island” has started screening in cinemas on 17 August 2017. Have you watched or are you intending to watch this historical blockbuster? Be it watching for your favourite actors or wanting to know more about a dark page in history, your ticket money would be worth it. I am contemplating to brace myself to watch it a 2nd time. Prepare your tissues if you have more delicate tear glands.
With an A-List casting of Hwang Jung Min, So Ji Sub, Song Joong Ki, Lee Jung Hyun, Kim Su An and Award Winning Director Ryoo Seung Wan and a budget of US$21 million, we can almost be assured that the ticket box office sales will soar real high. The stars also made a trip to Singapore and Malaysia to promote this historical blockbuster. It shows how much emphasis the cast and crew place on this movie.
As expected, this movie would invite much controversy but what I would like to say is, it is a movie and not a documentary after all, thus entertainment value needs to be considered. More importantly, what the director and production crew hopes to do is to unravel a dark side of history that the world (including many Koreans) never knew. It is to relook into the past and learn from a new perspective, which can direct everyone to a better future.
The actors felt that we can all somehow relate to the happenings and would be touched by the story and also be aware that this actually happened in history. I feel this would also serve as a good lesson for the people in this generation that war would only bring harm to everyone else. There is no win-win situation when so many people have to suffer.
The trauma, atrocities, hardships, tortures, separations, deaths, sadness, betrayal, selflessness, selfishness and all forms of humanity could be seen from the movie.
I would say, the actors did a very great job.
The director also put in some joyful and heart-warming moments, creating some light heartedness within the inhuman living conditions of those on the island.
The one highlight of the movie would be the big escape plan and how the 400 Joseon workers helped one another. With war and escape plans would definitely bring about much bloodshed. However, “Unity is strength” indeed.
I am sure those who walked out of the cinema, would feel that their ticket money is worthwhile. You not only get to swoon at your favourite K-Actors but you also learn another lesson in history and it makes you appreciate more of what you have in the present and also to treasure your loved ones.
I would give it 4 out of 5 stars.

This is definitely the most star studded and most anticipated movie promotion in 2017 with an entourage of Hwang Jung Min, So Ji Sub & Song Joong Ki.
Since the announcement of all 3 casts – Veteran Actor Hwang Jung Min, Charismatic actor So Ji Sub, Heartthrob Song Joong Ki and renowned Director Ryoo Seung Wan, to be gracing the Gala Premiere of “Battleship Island” in Singapore, the local fan scene on Sunny Island had literally turned into a replica of a mini “Battleship Island”. Thousands of fans pit their creativity and expended all ways and means to win access passes to the exclusive media press conference, Meet & Greet and Gala Premiere tickets.
After all, this would be the last time fans could see Song Joong Ki before he gets married in October. His marriage news did not dampen the spirits of his die heart fans and they thronged all 3 levels of Suntec City North Atrium and also lined the pave way outside the building.
The goom-to-be was glowing with radiance and had an aura of positive vibes and happiness all over him. So Ji Sub has a group of loyal fans who follow him for many years. He’s known to be a cool guy on the out-front but is a very warm guy who would pay attention to his fans.
It is the first time that award winning actor Hwang Jung Min and Director Ryoo Seung Wan to grace our shores. Hwang Jung Min is composed, has a good sense of humour and also shared very interesting insights that he gained in filming the movie.
The stars were pretty surprised by the turnout of 3,000 fervently screaming fans and expressed their gratitude for such an warm welcome. The stars took the effort to wave and acknowledge fans who were on Level 2 and 3, at the side and behind the stage as well.
Highlight of the night was when the confetti sprouted out of nowhere with a loud POP. Their expressions and reactions were priceless.
The promotions in SG had come to an end but we are pretty sure the Oppas would bring back with them fond and happy memories from their visit here.

真诚能打动人心。暖男较可以虏获人心。
Words to describe Park Bo Gum – 吃货宝宝，哭包，真诚，诚恳，暖男, 善良，单纯, down-to-earth, bubbly, cheeky, warm and positive.
It’s one of the most sincere and heart warming fan meets that I have ever been to. The longest fan meet at 3 hours long and 1.5 to 2 hour Hi-5 session as well. He was there for rehearsal for 6 hours just before the fan meet.
Sincerity can be felt and you can tell when it is not faked.
Read though the list of sweet things that Bo Gummy had done to captivate souls and melt hearts at his 1st fan meet in Singapore.
Even if you are not a fan (same as me), he would have melted you at the fan meet.
It was really an “Oh, Happy Day”!
