While the first female military special "Steel Unit W" of the season of "Steel Unit" ended, CP Seo Hye-seung and PD Shin Jae-ho revealed the behind-the-scenes of the production.
In the last episode of Channel A's "Steel Unit W," which aired on the 17th, the Marines won the "final victory" with a miraculous come-from-behind victory for the first time in all seasons. "Steel Unit W," which premiered on October 1, has continued to have high ratings and buzz for three months.
Regarding the background of planning the women's special for the first time in the season, CP Seo said, "After the broadcast of 'Steel Unit 3', which was last season, I thought a lot about whether there was any story we could go further. He explained, "I chose a female soldier at a crossroads between whether to increase the scale or look at it from a different perspective."
"As a result, female soldiers armed with strong, reliable, and excellent minds provided a story that could be more immersed in the 'steel unit' narrative because of their diverse characters." He added, "We have a fandom that can be comparable to season 1, proved our skills, and showed that they are cool soldiers."
Members of all units, including the winning Marines, properly imprinted their names on viewers. In addition, the 'pop-up store' attracted great attention with its enormous fandom.
Asked which unit of the 6th unit he expected to win, PD Shin said, "I predicted the superiority of the Marine Corps by looking at the physical, but it was difficult to predict. After the first main mission, I thought 707 would be a strong candidate," he said honestly.
He said, "At the end of the final mission, the Marine Corps' victory was pictured in my head, thinking, 'It could be a reversal."
He also expressed his gratitude to the Marines and special forces who came to the final. "It was cool that the Marine Corps showed a daredevil side as a unit conducting landing operations," he said. "I was impressed by the words of the special envoy, Hae-joo, who said, "I will carry out the operation the same even if I go back after knowing the results." CP Seo also said, "Thank you for burning your passion for the troops who devoted their youth."
On the hidden story of 'Steel Unit W', CP Seo said, "When I said I was planning a special for the female army, I guaranteed that 'Remastered' MCs Park and Lee Jin-bong could not be made and would not succeed due to the small number of female special forces. However, he said that PD Shin, who was stimulated by this, rather vowed to "make it successful."
The fact that the Army and Navy, which are general units, participated for the first time in the season, is also considered a "god move." Regarding the army and navy's anti-war capabilities, which were considered the weakest, CP said, "Thank you for proving the insurrection of the underdog." Producer Shin
said, "The Navy's Won Cho-hee's record of three consecutive 10 points in 'Pistolary Shooting' and the Army's strong physical strength and IBS paddling ability were excellent enough to surprise all of the field staff. Even if it is not a special forces unit, it has properly imprinted that there are so many good and gritty soldiers," he said.
"Steel Unit W" is not a survival program that only illuminates winners. The tears of the five eliminated units and their feelings in the competition give us a clear message. I think there is an important essence of life in the sincere words of the members, "I'm sorry for the result, but I have no regrets because I put everything into it."
{Steel Unit W' is only left with the epilogue 'Coming Friendship' at 10 p.m. on the 24th.
