AI FILMMAKING · SEASON 2 · AFTERWORD
From the captain in a black uniform and ponytail to a colder, more commanding special forces officer. Here is why I changed the character in the AI films.

DRA9ON CINEMA is back!
This time, let me share why Captain Min changed in Season 2. In both seasons, Min is a captain in the Republic of Korea Army’s 707th Special Mission Group. In Season 1, she wore a black uniform and a ponytail. Her human side was visible, too. The uniform change has an in-story reason. After the palace burned in Season 1, Min began wearing the clothes of a 707 soldier who had fallen into Joseon before her. Her camouflage uniform in Season 2 carries that story forward. I also changed her ponytail to a short bob. Season 2 takes place three months later, and I wanted that experience to show. So I reworked her clothes, hairstyle, personality and presence together.
Three months. Still searching.
Three months had passed without finding her squad, with obstacles along the way. The main enemies Captain Min faces in FALL 707 are a shaman villain and zombies. After that experience, what expression would she wear? How would she carry herself? That question was the starting point for Season 2.
This time, it starts with the eyes.
For Season 2, I wanted a cold, charismatic special forces captain. I wanted the time she had endured to be felt in her presence, rather than just changing her appearance.
Honestly… it looks pretty cool. Haha.
Honestly, I wanted her to look cool. Haha. That is why I added the motorcycle. It was a staging choice that put her charisma and the scene I imagined ahead of historical accuracy. Within a military fantasy occult thriller, I wanted to explore the scene I imagined.
The wound starts in S2, Episode 3!
The facial injury begins in Season 2, Episode 3. It was not present in Season 1 or at the start of Season 2. Her colder presence and the facial injury that appears later are separate parts of the character’s progression.
On to the next part of the story.
I began by wanting to make a short military video. Now I continue by thinking about what Captain Min experiences and how it changes her. I want to keep building my own world through FALL 707.
SCENE NOTES
The following notes include some plot details from released episodes.
In Season 2, Episode 3, Min recognizes Sergeants Han and Kim and calls their names. Facing the comrades she has been searching for, she encounters a situation gunfire cannot solve. Behind her colder appearance, the need to bring her squad back remains.
Watch the related scene ↗In Episode 4, her squad members disappear into black smoke again, and Min aims at the elderly shaman who once helped her. In Episode 5, she searches for a way to save her comrades as the possessed horde closes in. The conflict is also about whom to trust and whom to save.
