Lee Howon Stars in 'Sanbokdoro' Wraps Up Filming
The movie "Sanbokdoro," inspired by the true story of a boxing hero, wrapped up filming on the 3rd, the production company Iroiwoks announced on the 7th.
"Sanbokdoro" depicts the coming-of-age story of five friends from Busan living in a slum built over a cemetery, spanning from 1979 to 1986 and the present day. The hungry slum friends, who have nothing but their fists, spend their days fighting in neighboring districts. To eat their fill, they start boxing with dreams of becoming world champions.
Lee Ho-won, former member of the group Infinite and an actor, plays the role of a boxer, while Kim Won-hae portrays a world champion worn down by a harsh life. Ahn Nae-sang takes on the role of a gym owner who rigorously trains the boxers. The cast also includes Do Ji-won, Jang Hyuk-jin, Kim Hyun, and Lee Jae-yong.
The film was shot across Busan, including locations such as Dadaepo in Saha-gu, Nambumin-dong in Seo-gu, Mechukji Village in Dong-gu, Mulmangol in Yeonje-gu, Jung-gu, and Yeongdo-gu.
