"Family Force" has completed its casting with a powerful ensemble featuring actors Cha Seung-won, Ra Mi-ran, Park Hyung-sik, Baek Yoon-sik, and Jang Ryeul, and has begun filming.

"Family Force" is a comic action film about a family of three generations of Marines who stand against terrorism not with combat power or intelligence, but with the strength of their family bonds.

"In "Family Force," actor Cha Seung-won will appear as "Cheol-du," a former Marine sergeant major whose family motto is "Once a Marine, always a Marine." Cheol-du is a character who, while visiting a large hospital where his father "Cheol-seong" is hospitalized, finds himself confronting a multinational terrorist incident alongside his wife "Ye-bun" and son "Cheol-hoon." The character is expected to showcase Cha Seung-won's signature cheerful charm once again.

"In "Family Force," actor Ra Mi-ran will play the role of "Ye-bun," the spiritual pillar of the three-generation Marine family and Cheol-du's wife. Ra Mi-ran, who has established herself as a reliable star through various works such as "Citizen Deok-hee," the "Honest Candidate" series, and "Haifa Eve," is set to further boost audience trust with this new film. Attention is also drawn to the fact that Ra Mi-ran, long regarded as a powerhouse of comic acting, will be sharing the screen with Cha Seung-won as a married couple.

"Actor Park Hyung-sik has announced his return to the screen after about seven years with "Family Force," bringing welcome news to fans. He will play "Cheol-hoon," the son of Cheol-du and Ye-bun, who is a sergeant in the Marine Corps Special Search Unit on his final leave and gets caught up in an unexpected terrorist incident while being cautious enough to watch out for falling leaves. In particular, Park Hyung-sik is expected to deliver his first full-fledged action performance on the big screen with this work, heightening anticipation.

"The role of "Cheol-seong," the eldest of the three-generation Marine family and a veteran who received a military merit medal as one of the first generation of Marines, will be portrayed by veteran actor Baek Yoon-sik. Having depicted unique characters in each of his works over a long period, including the films "Noryang: Sea of Death," "Inside Men," and "The Face Reader," he is set to deliver an unpredictable and intense performance in "Family Force" as well.

"Actor Jang Ryeul will play "Tae-in," who carries out a mysterious terrorist attack alongside multinational terrorists at a large hospital in Seoul, injecting tension into the story. Given his impressive performances in works such as "Morning Comes to the Psych Ward," "Ransom," and "My Name," interest is building around the new character he will reveal in "Family Force."

"The direction of "Family Force" is helmed by Director Won Shin-yeon, who is called a master of action representing the Korean film industry with works such as "Battle of Bonghwa Island," "A Murderer's Guide to Memory," "Suspect," "Seven Days," and "Bullies."

"Director Won Shin-yeon expressed his determination to present a high-quality result together with the actors and staff, having prepared for the work over a long period. Director Won shared his thoughts on the start of filming, saying, "Having invested a long time in preparation, I will present a high-quality work alongside wonderful actors and staff."

"Cha Seung-won, who plays "Cheol-du," stated, "It is a story about a family gathering, but because it is not an ordinary family, I found the script even more enjoyable. I am greatly looking forward to working with Director Won Shin-yeon and other excellent production staff and actors. We will film it well and make it fun."

"Ra Mi-ran, who plays "Ye-bun," said, "It is an honor to be able to participate in a good work with actors I have always admired. While I was initially burdened by the idea of doing action acting after a long time, because the director clearly outlined his vision for the work and character, I think I just need to practice hard and follow along well. I hope we can all film safely without any injuries."

"Park Hyung-sik, who plays "Cheol-hoon," expressed his determination, saying, "I was excited even before the script reading at the thought of being able to work with wonderful senior actors. We will complete this work enjoyably together with an excellent director, seniors and juniors, fellow actors, and staff. I ask for your interest and affection."

"Baek Yoon-sik, who plays "Cheol-seong," said, "I am happy to be able to work with a good director and junior colleagues. I look forward to being able to show you the cheerful story of a Marine family."

"Jang Ryeul, who plays "Tae-in," shared, "In a fateful encounter, I have become part of the best team. We will create a high-quality work through deep consideration and wonderful chemistry. Please look forward to it."

"The film "Family Force" began filming in September and is currently in production.
