명량-회오리바다 The Admiral: Roaring Currents 2014

by e-bluespirit 2014. 9. 7.










The Admiral: Roaring Currents (명량 Myeongryang) is a 2014 South Korean film directed and co-written by Kim Han-min and starring Choi Min-sik. It became the biggest film of all time at the South Korean box office, with more than 16 million admissions and the first local film to gross more than US$100 million



In the Battle of Myeongnyang, on October 26, 1597, the Joseon kingdom's navy, led by Admiral Yi Sun-sin, fought theJapanese navy in the Myeongnyang Strait, near Jindo Island, off the southwest corner of the Korean peninsula. With 13 ships remaining from Admiral Won Gyun's disastrous defeat at the Battle of Chilchonryang, Admiral Yi held the strait as a "Last Stand" battle against a fleet of 133 Japanese warships and at least 200 logistical support ships. The Japanese ships were on their way to support their land army's advance towards the Joseon capital of Hanyang (modern day Seoul). Many Japanese warships were sunk and/or damaged during the battle. Given the disparity in numbers, the battle is regarded as one of Admiral Yi's most remarkable victories.
