Anecdotes

Robot Taekwon V is a 1976 South Korean animated science fiction film directed by Kim Cheong-gi and produced by Yu Hyun-mok. The film follows the protagonist Kim Hoon, a world champion taekwondo practitioner, as he pilots a giant mech called Taekwon V to fight against the evil antagonist Dr. Kaff and his army known as The Red Empire. Released on 24 July 1976, the film immediately gained massive success among audiences, selling 130,000 tickets on the day of its premiere, and consequently inspired a string of sequels afterwards.

Production

Robot Taekwon V was produced in Seoul Donghwa, an animation studio founded in 1975 by the director Kim Cheong-gi, as the first product of his dream to create autonomous local South Korean animation. Kim said that he was inspired by the Japanese manga series Mazinger Z in the creation of Robot Taekwon V, but stated his intention to differentiate it from Japanese manga and to instead localize the series to fit Korean audiences.

Backlighting and stroboscopic effect were used in production for Robot Taekwon V for the first time in South Korean feature animated film. In the taekwondo fighting scenes, rotoscoping was used, which contributed to the development of animating technology in South Korea. In the animation department, Lim Jung-kyu worked as an animation director and a layout artist, while Jo Hang-ri assisted as a layout checker.
