It was the movie name that caught my attention LIKE THE MOON ESCAPING FROM THE CLOUDS by Korean director Jun-IK Lee. The movie is an martial arts drama and when you do see the poster as well as the trailer you will automatically will think of Zaitochi as the main protaganist in the movie is a blindman with a sword. There will be some inspiration from the Japanese story but according this trailers source the inspiration comes from a Korean Manwha a type of Korean comicstrip/manga.
Martial arts movies do have a international appeal and Jun Ik Lee wants to get more recognition for his work outside Asia and with this he has a good chance of soing so. He has already had a financial success with Wang-ui namja (The King And The Clown) now he wants worldwide recognition.
