Man Living with the King, Tiger CG Revised

Some CG scenes in the movie 'The Man Who Lived with the King,' which is a box office hit surpassing 10 million viewers, are scheduled to be revised. In particular, the tiger CG, which became a point of controversy, is expected to be improved for future releases on platforms like IPTV.

It is known that the movie's release date was moved up earlier than anticipated, leading to insufficient time for CG work. The distributor, Showbox, stated that the CG company is working on the revisions independently and that it is currently undecided whether the improved version will be reflected in the theatrical release.

'The Man Who Lived with the King' is set in 1457 in Cheongnyeongpo and tells the story of Eom Heung-do, the village chief who voluntarily exiled himself for the village's prosperity, and the young former king, Danjong, who was exiled after being ousted from the throne. The film is receiving support from all age groups, thanks to the actors' passionate performances and its historical backdrop.

However, some viewers pointed out that the quality of the animal CG, including the tiger, was lacking. In response, Jang Won-seok, CEO of the production company B.A. Entertainment, explained that there was insufficient post-production time due to the tight release schedule.

Director Jang Hang-jun, who helmed the film, also mentioned the lack of CG work time in a pre-release interview, humorously remarking, "It's actually a relief that only the CG is being talked about." Netizens are showing positive reactions to the news of these CG revisions.
