When the murder of a professor reveals links to past cases, suspicions of a serial killer arise, plunging the country into turmoil. As Major Crimes delves into the investigation, the killer taunts them by publicly releasing a teaser online, indicating the next victim, and intensifying the chaos. To tackle the escalating threat, the team brings in idealistic rookie officer Park Sun-woo (Jung Hae-in), leading to unexpected twists as they solve the case. In \u201cI, the Executioner,\u201d Ryoo vividly depicts the intricacies of a society in flux, where the parameters for criminal punishment and the proliferation of media content blur the lines of public judgment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Watch the trailer:&nbsp;<\/em><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/zZuGu6rE0_w\"><em>https:\/\/youtu.be\/zZuGu6rE0_w<\/em><\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSince the first film was so beloved, I spent a lot of time figuring out how to bring something new to the table,\u201d says director Ryoo. \u201cIf the strength of the first film was its exhilaration, then with the sequel, I aimed to push forward with a more powerful force.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/I-the-Executioner_prod-still-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" data-attachment-id=\"55827\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/entertainment\/movies-entertainment\/i-spent-a-lot-of-time-figuring-out-how-to-bring-something-new-to-the-table-says-director-ryoo-seung-wan-about-i-the-executioner-opening-in-philippine-cinemas-thi\/attachment\/i-the-executioner_prod-still-1\/#main\" data-orig-file=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/I-the-Executioner_prod-still-1.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1280,853\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"I the Executioner_prod still 1\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/I-the-Executioner_prod-still-1-300x200.jpg\" data-large-file=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/I-the-Executioner_prod-still-1-1024x682.jpg\" src=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/I-the-Executioner_prod-still-1-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-55827\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/I-the-Executioner_prod-still-1-1024x682.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/I-the-Executioner_prod-still-1-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/I-the-Executioner_prod-still-1-768x512.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.teampcheng.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/I-the-Executioner_prod-still-1.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Jung Hae-in and Hwang Jung-min in \u201cI, the Executioner\u201d<br>Photo credit: Warner Bros. Pictures<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>One of the most notable aspects of this new film is the extreme placement of characters within the frame to go with the suspenseful directing. Cinematographer Choi Young-hwan revealed that he used a \u201csplit filter\u201d which alters the depth of field to keep all characters in focus within the frame. He shared that \u201cRyoo wanted to capture both distant and close characters in the same shot, opting for a more classical shooting technique.\u201d Additionally, the film employed an unconventional approach by using smartphone cameras and devices that YouTubers use in real life for scenes involving YouTubers, offering a fresh and bold perspective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to cinematography and action, the music in \u201cI, the Executioner\u201d also carries its own unique flavor. Music director Chang Ki-ha, who worked with Ryoo on \u201cSmugglers,\u201d joined the team to create a fresh atmosphere that audiences will enjoy. Chang Ki-ha mentioned that after reading the script, he found himself immediately immersed in composing for the film, saying, \u201cIt\u2019s a work that combines both entertainment and timeliness. When a film successfully delivers on both fronts, you feel like you\u2019ve watched a really good movie, and \u2018I, the Executioner\u2019 is exactly that kind of movie.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jung Hae-in, recognized globally for his role in the Netflix series \u201cD.P.,\u201d joins the cast in the sequel as a young police officer. To show the passion and spirit of a rookie detective, Jung underwent extensive action training, from basic fitness exercises to martial arts and parkour. \u201cThis is a piece that captures something penetrating this time and society,\u201d says Jung about what made him join the project.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Only in cinemas starting September 25, \u201c&#8217;I, the Executioner,\u201d from CJ ENM, is distributed in the Philippines by Warner Bros.
