YesAsia Editorial Description

Based on the true-life story of Choi Bae-Dal - also known to many as Oyama Masutastsu - Fighter in the Wind offers a Korean take on the life of the karate master. Director Yang Yun-ho (Libera Me draws on ideas from Bang Hakki's famous comic strip to depict how Choi overcame obstacles of being a Korean in Japan to become a legendary karate master. Star Yang Dong-geun went through immense physical torture to get his body in top shape in order to play Choi, and the result of all his hard work is clearly apparent on screen.

Choi Bae-dal was a farm boy who decided to go to Japan and become a fighter pilot during World War II. However, he was denied and ended up on the streets after the war. It is there that he gets into trouble with the yakuza and learns to become tough on the streets with the help of his friend Bum Soo. When Bum Soo is killed by the yakuza, Bae Dal retreats into the mountains and concentrate on the art of karate in order to become the best fighter in Japan.

Interesting insight Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
This movie was definently an interesting watch, while it took a little bit to get into groove of things it was a great watch. While it isn't completely accurate (have you ever seen a movie about a real person ever acurate?) it does show a lot of aspects of what life was like for Korean's living in Japan in that era.

The movie kept true to the type of living they had living amungst each other. The animosity towards each other, this is certainly a very important part of the movie. If this was not portried right it would not seem right.

While there are so many serious issues in this movie it does seem to keep light hearted in some of the fight scenes which keep things rather pleasent.

I think its a wonderful tribute to such a great person (even if he would possibly not consider himself on)...A very enjoyable watch, a must see!

bad bad bad, in a bad way Customer Review Rated Bad 0 - 0 out of 10
acting, storyline, directing, basically everything was terrible about this movie. Based on a true story but nothing is accurate at all. This shows a lot of racisim towards japanese, making the koreans the good guys and the japanese the evil people. Few of the fight scenes were ok but everything else was bad

POWERFULL PICTURE Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
I became an asian movie lover about a year ago and this movie proves once again that the korean stuff is some of the best. I don't know anything about the real character this is about but the action scenes blew me away and gave me some severe adrenaline rushes each time I have seen it (about 5 times so far). I have been a manic movie buff in general for years and seen thousands of movies, some foreign, but the asian stuff is awesome - don't just see this movie - OWN IT!!!!
