AI FILMMAKING · SEASON 1 · AFTERWORD
It began with something I loved. I nearly stopped. Then the people waiting for the next episode gave me a reason to start again. This is the first FALL 707 production note.
DRA9ON CINEMA / 2026.09.27
Hello, this is DRA9ON CINEMA!
Today, I want to share how FALL 707 began. I did not start with a grand universe in mind. I simply loved military films and wanted to try making a short one.
Modern tactics. An unfamiliar era.
The initial idea was this: what if a modern special forces soldier travelled back to Joseon, fought its soldiers and tried to escape? That became the first film, about two minutes long. This was the starting point of the early experiments; in the reboot, the main enemies became a shaman villain and zombies.
One more episode.
Some people liked the story. Others left pointed criticism or harsh comments. Encouragement kept me going through four early episodes, each around one to two minutes. These were experiments made before the official Season 1.
Should I stop here?
The more I made, the more I saw what was missing. I could not keep going without addressing the lack of historical research. Together with the harsh comments, it made me consider giving up FALL 707 altogether.
I liked FALL 707. Are you making any more?
Then I heard this more than once. Someone was waiting for the story I was thinking of abandoning. Those words gave me the energy to try again.
FALL 707: REBOOT
I rebuilt the character sheets and reworked the world and story from the ground up. Rather than simply continuing those early experiments, I started over. With a shaman villain and zombies as the main enemies, the story shifted toward modern tactics confronting unfamiliar occult threats. That rebuild became the official Season 1 of FALL 707: REBOOT, a military fantasy occult thriller. What began as a short video had become a world of my own that I wanted to keep exploring.
SCENE NOTES
The following notes include some plot details from released episodes.
Season 1 moves from a modern military operation into Joseon. Captain Min still needs to find the squad members who fell with her. The short time-slip premise becomes a story about people to bring home and questions to answer.
Watch the related scene ↗In the Season 1 finale, Yi-seo faces the shaman and Min protects the fallen prince. Black smoke stopping bullets reveals a threat that modern combat alone cannot resolve. The scene brings the occult world of FALL 707, with its shaman villain and zombies, into focus.
