Anticipated film 'Escape' starring Lee Je Hoon and Koo Kyo Hwan to premiere in July 2024

AKP STAFF

The upcoming movie 'Escape,' featuring Lee Je Hoon and Koo Kyo Hwan, has officially secured its release date, hitting theaters in July 2024.

'Escape' tells the gripping tale of Gyu Nam, a North Korean soldier with dreams beyond the ceasefire line, and Hyun Sang, a National Security Agency officer determined to thwart his escape. Departing from the typical narrative of division that focuses on North and South Korean confrontation, the film explores the universal theme that one's dreams keep them alive.

In this compelling cinematic journey, Lee Je Hoon takes on the role of Gyu Nam, a North Korean sergeant who, after serving a decade in the military, aspires to start a new life in the South, escaping the predestined future of the North.

Koo Kyo Hwan brilliantly portrays Ri Hyun Sang, an officer from North Korea's National Security Agency, tasked with capturing Gyu Nam and preventing his escape.

In 'Escape,' director Lee Jong Pil is set to craft a compelling narrative that transcends the confines of the Military Demarcation Line, seamlessly blending dreams and reality as characters embark on their thrilling journey of escape and pursuit.
