Few months before the filming began, Jo Jung Suk and YoonA took rock climbing lessons and have learned all the proper skills to climb. Jo Jung Suk said, “After training at indoor rock climbing centers, I went to
the sound stage and the buildings were 10-15m tall. If this was a real disaster, the actual
buildings would’ve been 10 times higher, so that puts things into scale."

YoonA, however said “Before the filming began, I kept my body in shape because I was required to run,
climb and wire stunts, and I wanted to keep up.”
The filmmakers and cast of EXIT are collectively calling EXIT “a new breed of disaster film
that has never been seen before.” Toxic gas as a source of the disaster is an ingenious story
device, and the funny-yet-sad situations the characters are put into are the reasons to see
the film.
