Choi Bae-Dal, a young Korean Taekwondo competitor arrives in Japan near the end of World War 2 with hopes of becoming a fighter pilot, but ends up on the streets battling racism, organised crime, occupying American servicemen, and his own fear of failure as a martial artist. Retiring to the wilderness for two years, Bae-Dal trains his body in the art of karate and returns to take on the world.
Adapted from the acclaimed Manga comic series by Bang Hak-Ki, Fighter in the Wind offers a supremely stylish re-telling of the real-life Kyokushin karate founder Masutatsu Oyama (known here as Bae-Dal), the man the New York times christened "The Toughest Man in the World".
Marking his third collaboration with director Yang Yun-Ho, actor Yang Dong-Keun brings both physical strength and emotional intensity to the role of Bae-Dal/Oyama, scything down those that dare challenge his physical superiority with breathtaking brutality. Boasting superb choreography by Jeong Du-Hong (Araham, No Blood No Tears), Fighter in the Wind represents the pinnacle of Korean action cinema.
