According to distributor CJ E&M, "R2B: Return to Base" will be released at the later end of next year.

This movie was to come out in January of 2012 but as work on it got delayed, it was postponed to the early half of the next year and now it has been pushed back again to the end of summer.

"R2B: Return to Base" is a KRW 10 billion movie by CJ E&M. It was well known as the last movie Rain shot before he joined the military, and he even had a press release conference in October along with "My Way".

CJ E&M was going to release it during the Lunar New Year but missed the season and there were problems with the distribution dates as well.

Usually, major films like "R2B: Return to Base" are released during traditional holidays, summer or high winter peaks. The next peak season after the News Years is summer, but Seol Kyeong-goo and Son Ye-jin's blockbuster "Tower" is standing by for release.

Already having tasted the bitterness of failure by releasing "Quick" and "Sector 7" two weeks apart from each other last summer, CJ E&M can't afford to stick "Tower" and "R2B: Return to Base" together but it also can't send out a KRW 10 billion blockbuster out during low season.

CJ E&M says, "We are currently fine-tuning the distributing periods but it looks like it would be hard to release it in the first half of the year. We are going to release it at the later half if possible".

"R2B: Return to Base" is about the life, passion and love among the fighters in the sky with Rain, Shin Se-kyung, Yu Jun-sang, Kim Sung-soo, Lee Ha-na, Jung Suk-won, Lee Jong-seok and more.
