I suppose last year was one for the sports films in Korea. We got Dream, the one about an underdog football team, and now we have Rebound, a basketball one. Rebound tells the inspirational true story of the Busan Jungang High School basketball team that, against all odds, made their way to the finals of the national basketball tournament in 2012. It’s an admirable tale of camaraderie, hard work, and, most importantly, the power of hope. The story begins with Kang Yang-Hyun, an ex-basketball player, who decides to take up the job of head coach of the Jungang High School basketball team where there is no team. It’s a film about second chances titled Rebound, and it’s certainly going to motivate you to go get the rebound in whatever sport life is playing with you.
