Ready to Launch: ‘The Moon,’ Releases Character Posters
In The Moon, Korea’s first manned mission to the moon ends in a tragic disaster when an explosion occurs on board. Seven years later, a second human spaceflight is launched successfully but a strong solar wind causes it to malfunction. One astronaut Sun-woo (DOH) is left stranded in space. Facing another fatal catastrophe, the Naro Space Center turns to its former managing director Dr. Kim (SUL) to help bring Sun-woo back home safely.
As the imminent catastrophe unfolds, the Naro Space Center turns to its former managing director, Dr. Kim (portrayed by SUL Kyung-gu). The film throws us into a thrilling race against time, where Dr. Kim’s expertise becomes humanity’s last hope to bring Sun-woo back home safely.
It’s T-minus one month and counting as we await the launch of ‘The Moon.’ This gripping, emotional, and epic-action film is one of Korea’s highly anticipated offerings of the year and is set to open across the Philippines on August 16.
Directed by Kim Yong-hwa, ‘The Moon’ presents a stellar cast. From SUL Kyung-gu’s portrayal of a seasoned space expert to EXO’s Doh Kyung-soo’s compelling performance as a stranded astronaut, the film promises powerful acting. The talented Kim Hee-ae adds to the ensemble, raising the bar of expectations.
