Director Kim Ji-woon and Song Kang-ho Wrap Up Filming of 'Geomi Jip' View original image


Director Kim Ji-woon and actor Song Kang-ho have reunited for the film Geomi Jip (Spiderweb), which has completed filming and entered post-production.


On the 14th, Barunson announced that Geomi Jip wrapped up its three-month shoot on the 6th.


The film depicts the story of Director Kim (played by Song Kang-ho), who is obsessed with the idea that reshooting the ending of the 1970s film Geomi Jip would make it better. Despite interference from censorship authorities and the worst conditions involving actors and producers who do not understand the changed content, he pushes forward with filming. This is the new work by director Kim Ji-woon, known for Rules of the Game, A Tale of Two Sisters, A Bittersweet Life, The Good, the Bad, the Weird, I Saw the Devil, and The Age of Shadows.


Director Kim said, "Geomi Jip is a story about characters stuck in absurd situations, stumbling around without answers. I wanted to portray an ensemble that maximizes each actor’s individuality and rhythm with a unique nuance in an entertaining way. I will work hard until the end so that our efforts do not fade."


Song Kang-ho shared, "For three months, Geomi Jip, the film within the film, was a special experience as I shared hardships and joys with senior and junior actors on the set. The process of coming together and creating amazing moments was enjoyable and happy. We will meet the audience with a truly great work."


Additionally, Lim Soo-jung said, "It’s quite sad that filming is already over. The chemistry among the actors was so good that I think I will want to see them again soon, and I am confident in our acting synergy." Oh Jung-se commented, "Many characters worked excitedly within a unique structure. I am very curious and excited to see what kind of film it will become. I had a really fun and enjoyable time playing in the playground called Geomi Jip."


Jeon Yeo-bin, who plays Shin Mi-do, the heiress of the production company Shinsung Film that believes in and supports Director Kim’s revised script as a masterpiece, said, "It’s sad to leave the set. I don’t want to believe that filming is over, but it’s truly a good film, one you can look forward to."



Furthermore, Jung Soo-jung, Park Jung-soo, Jang Young-nam, Kim Min-jae, and Kim Dong-young are determined to present a unique character ensemble unlike anything seen before.
