Steel Rain 2: Summit is a 2020 South Korean action thriller film written and directed by Yang Woo-suk. It is a standalone sequel to the 2017 film Steel Rain. In the film, three leaders each from South Korea, North Korea, and the United States are kidnapped and held in a North Korean nuclear submarine during a summit between the two Koreas and the United States. It stars Jung Woo-sung as the South Korean president, Kwak Do-won as the North Korean Supreme Guard Command chief, Yoo Yeon-seok as the North Korean supreme leader and Angus Macfadyen as the United States president.

Production

Writer and director Yang Woo-suk wanted to offer a cinematic simulation on the future of the two Koreas. According to him, the previous film showed the outbreak of war between the two Koreas, while this film shows a "more realistic approach to the situation on the Korean Peninsula that involves more than just the two countries." He also wanted to present the reality that the fate and stability of the Korean Peninsula are determined by other count…

He further described the power struggle inside the submarine as a metaphor for the inter-Korean conflict, further hinting a future sequel might be about families.

Yang Woo-suk cast the same actors but changed their roles, especially their sides. A few changes were made in the other cast members for China, Japan and USA. Yang deemed it a symbol of the current regional dynamics remaining the same even though South and North Korea change their approaches, since geopolitics in the region is decided by external factors.

Jung Woo-sung, who portrays the South Korean president, felt the film saw the Korean Peninsula from "a cool-headed point of view". He studied a lot about the history of inter-Korean summits and presidents, and had to imagine what the leaders thought of the future, the Korean Peninsula and how they led the summits. He described the film as an action thriller instead of a moral lecture.

The filming began on 27 August 2019. While filming on the sets, Yoo Yeon-seok felt "the psychological pressure of being in the dark, deep water." He further added that the restricted location helped in portraying the slightest changes in power relationship and emotions more sensitively.
