"Sunny: Our Hearts Beat Together" and "Swing Kids" creator Kang Hyeong-cheol, one of the Korean film industry’s biggest hitmakers, is bringing "High Five!"—a wildly imaginative idea about "gaining superpowers through organ transplants"—to nationwide release at Shinjuku Piccadilly and other theaters from Friday, October 16. The newly unveiled "super-awakening poster" captures the characters, a collection of oddballs who awaken to superpowers because of organ transplants, and lines up heroic cut-in shots in which each of their personalities bursts forth. At the center is Wang-so (Lee Jae-in), a middle school student and five-time taekwondo champion who gained super strength and the power to run wildly through a heart transplant. Against a vivid red background, she shows a brave expression while still retaining a hint of childish innocence. To her left stands Ji-seong (Ahn Jae-hong), an aspiring screenwriter who knows a lot about heroes and acquired super lung capacity through a lung transplant, with his hair blowing in front of a green color scheme. To Wang-so’s right is Ki-dong (Yoo Ah-in), a free spirit who loves music and fashion and gained the superpower to freely control electromagnetic waves through a corneal transplant, with purple color highlighting his character. Also, standing powerfully against a blue background is Yak-seong (Kim Hee-won), a construction-site foreman who believes in safety first and awakened to regenerative ability through a liver transplant. He is showing a hearty smile with his white teeth visible. And posing against a pink background is Seong-nyeo (Ra Mi-ran), a lactobacillus drink delivery worker who burns with a desire to help people. She has a majestic expression, but her superpower is still "????". What is the mysterious power that even she herself has not noticed yet!? While fully featuring the five colorful characters, the visual also captures the scene where Yong-chun (Jinyoung of GOT7), a rejuvenated cult leader, and Wang-so face each other as they exchange high kicks, creating a visual that makes one anticipate the clash between High Five and its strongest enemy. The newly arrived "super-strong trailer" vividly shows the oddballs’ superpower abilities. To the high-energy narration, "One night, what was entrusted by a single donor was organs and superpowers!" Wang-so and the others’ transplanted organs and the superpowers dwelling in each are unraveled on screen. Mysterious tattoo-like emblems also appear on the bodies of those who received organ transplants, suggesting a secret connecting the five, while a comical scene can also be confirmed in which the oddball members deepen their friendship around fried chicken. Next appears Yong-chun, the cult leader who received a pancreas transplant from the same donor and gained the superpower to absorb life force. Seeking even greater power, he schemes to steal Wang-so and the others’ abilities and become a "god"; he is the film’s strongest villain. In addition, his cool face and sculpted physique are shown, giving off an extraordinary presence. In front of a large number of believers, he demonstrates out-of-the-ordinary power by smashing a wall to pieces with one blow, strongly impressing the arrival of the strongest enemy. Yong-chun, who has gained superhuman power strong enough to flick Ji-seong, who gained super lung capacity, away with a single forehead flick, and Wang-so, the taekwondo practitioner who gained super strength and the power to run wildly,展开 an unpredictable, full-contact superpower fight! The five’s extraordinary powers and unpredictable team play will blow away their dull everyday lives. Attention is focused on the moment when High Five awakens into the "strongest team." ■ Work overview "High Five!"
