Rain : Now I’ve got to know how hard fighter pilots work on this. Their dedication to their work is so admirable.
1:00~1:03
‘So Yun Young’ who is the stand-in for Rain in the movie and a major in the Air Force belonging to the 17th combat wing: Rain is very tall and handsome, I love to see him work hard, and his positive attitude to try to understand the appreciation of Air Force pilots’ lives rings in my heart.

*PLEASE Note: Don’t let your imaginations run away with you, fans. What Rain means here is that he has flown inside an F15 with a trained pilot actually flying the plane. He’s a civilian. The government would never allow a civilian to fly a fighter jet, and even if they did, it takes years to learn to get a complicated, 30+ million dollar piece of equipment like this to simply roll down a tarmac, much less off the ground. NOT weeks. ^@@^

By rain bird @Rain Europe:
All the coverage of KBS, MBC, SBS, and YTN are just about the same.
Brief summary:
‘Flight : Close to the Sun’, a fighter pilot-featured movie, is currently being filmed, and is scheduled to be released early next year. Rain has been cast as the main character as the top gun in this film. Our air force is also taking an active part in helping to film the movie.
(Fantastic formation flying…)
(The F-15K valued at about 100 billion won a unit.)
This is not a computer graphic—it’s for real and has closely been filmed by a specially equipped plane for the movie. Following USA and France throughout the world, South Korea has become the third nation to actually film aerial scenes. To put perfection in the work, hollywood film crew specializing in making aerial scenes joins the movie shooting.
This movie tracing the human touch of Air Force pilots will pave the way for our air force’s work in hitting close to home for moviegoers.
Cloud USA 
It’s a rare opportunity for actors to take part in a real mean flying machine where others would opt with a simulator. He’s courageous…
