Escape Korean movie recently released its trailer, starring Lee Je-Hoon and Koo Kyo-Hwan in lead roles. It will also feature Sweet Home cast member Song Kang in a cameo appearance.
The upcoming movie tells the story of Kyu-Nam’s (Lee Je-Hoon) attempt to escape to South Korea. North Korean soldier Kyu-Nam dreams of living freely on the other side of the fence at the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ). One day, he gets caught when he stops soldier Dong-Hyuk from running away.
State Security Department Major Hyeon-Sang remembers Kyu-Nam from his childhood days. He does not punish Kyu-Nam; instead, he portrays him as a hero who caught Dong-Hyuk. However, Kyu-Nam does not want to live under the government’s rules and continues to attempt to escape. On the other hand, Hyeong-Sang will stop him at all costs because Kyu-Nam’s actions can put his position in jeopardy.
