It has been revealed that Sunghoo Park and rapper Chanmina-san will be performing the theme song "WORK HARD" for the all-new original anime "BULLET/BULLET," directed by Park Sung-hoo, known for the anime " Jujutsu Kaisen ," among others. This will be Chanmina-san's first time performing an anime theme song. A new PV was released, showcasing the song. It was also announced that a two-part movie version reconstructing all 12 episodes of the anime will be released. "Bullet Sprint Arc" will be released on July 25th, and "Bullet Showdown Arc" will be released on August 15th.
The theme song "WORK HARD" is an energetic song that was written after Chanmina-san had a meeting with Director Park and listened to his thoughts on the film. The song will be available on various music distribution services from April 30th.
Chanmina commented, "I was personally approached by Director Park of 'BULLET/BULLET' last year and was inspired by the aspects of 'working' and 'having to work' while working on the project. I wanted to express the importance of working hard and continuing to work hard, and the importance of gaining the strength to overcome numerous trials. I created the song as a kind of encouragement for myself, and for those who are working hard and working hard, and I also drew on myself over the past 10 years or so of being busy and hard working. I also drew on the worldview of the anime a little, but I think I was able to express it in a way that was true to myself! Personally, I really like the song!! Let's listen to 'WORK HARD' and do our best together!!"
The anime is based on Director Park's plan that took about 10 years to come, and is a "super fun" non-stop action film set in a near-future world where civilization has collapsed and become a wilderness. While working at a junk shop, Gear the Boy teams up with Qu-0213, a robot with four personalities, and a gambling-addicted polar bear to run a "thief business" to take back items that have been unjustly stolen from him. One day, he receives a request from a mysterious girl named Noah who is being chased by a hitman, and they end up being chased by armed groups and vicious hitmen in the wilderness... This is the story. It will be exclusively distributed on Disney+ from July 16th. There are 12 episodes in total.
