YesAsia Editorial Description

Fighter in the Wind jump starts the latest Korean martial arts movie era!

Bone crushing non-stop Karate excellence comes to invade your home movie theater as the story of real-life hero Choi Bae-dal offers you adrenaline-filled action that will keep you nailed to your seat.

Yang Dong-geun portrays the film's protagonist a farmer boy Choi Bae-dal who grows up to practice martial arts skills to perfection. Originally planning to become a pilot, he later abandons this plan and wanders through the streets at night rescuing people in need. After his revered teacher and friend Bum-soo is slain by a gang of Japanese hoodlums Choi intensifies his training and continues to take on Karate experts all over Japan ...

Popular actor Yang Dong-geun went through immense physical torture to get his body in top shape for this new big screen hit. Drawing on ideas from Bang Hakki's famous comic strip, director Yang Yun-ho turned the unbelievable life of Choi Bae-dal (1922 –1994) into a box-office breaking martial arts thriller.

This version comes with audio commentary by the director, actors, and action choreographer and offers top bonus material like:

  • Yang Dong Geun's shooting diary
  • A Kyoku Shin Karate documentary by the movie's action choreographer
  • Making of the movie
  • Interview with the director and the actors
  • Press conference
  • Music video
  • Trailers, teasers and TV spots
  • Photo gallery
  • Essential information about Choi Bae Dal (a.k.a. Mas Oyama)

    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!!!!
