Whatever happen to Won Shin-Yeon's Robot Taekwon V (로보트 태권브이)? Its a question that crossed my mind several times before during the past year. The big budget live-action feature film was originally slated for release in 2009, yet there hasn't been any word on its status ever since we last seen some CGI test videos back in 2008 and its already 2010. Thankfully, the project is still on the table as evident by the recently launched official site. While the site is very basic, it does contain a cool artwork of Korea's favorite Taekwondo-kicking giant robot, fighting an enemy robot in the Han River with the release date clearly stated at 2011. Too bad we got to wait another full year again but as the saying goes, its better late than never. More details as we get' em.

You'll find a large version of the artwork in our gallery below.
