The upcoming film "Assassins," highly anticipated for bringing together actors Yu Hae-jin, Park Hae-il, and Lee Min-ho, has released its press stills, raising anticipation for the movie.
"Assassins" is a story that tracks the suspicions and mastermind behind the assassination of the First Lady that shocked South Korea on August 15, 1974. Directed by Hur Jin-ho, who made "Christmas in August" and "One Fine Spring Day," the film stars Yu Hae-jin, Park Hae-il, and Lee Min-ho.
First, the sight of "Chul-goo" (Yu Hae-jin), "Jae-hwan" (Park Hae-il), and "Young-il" (Lee Min-ho) gathered together instantly captures attention. The determined expressions of the three figures attempting to reveal the hidden mastermind signal the beginning of their cooperation to dig into the questions left behind by the incident. "Chul-goo," gazing at someone past an intense light with a face covered in sweat and clear wounds, hints at the desperate crisis he will face during the rough investigation process.
The following stills of "Jae-hwan" and "Young-il" showcase the firm conviction of a city desk chief who refuses to miss suspicious circumstances and the passion of a rookie reporter keeping a close eye on the scene, adding to expectations for the performances the two will deliver.
The sight of "Chul-goo" and "Hyun-do" (Park Ji-hwan) pointing out remaining clues while looking at the seating chart of the anniversary ceremony venue and on-site photos heightens tension, while the confrontation between "Jae-hwan" and an intelligence agent (Park Hoon) portends a sharp clash with not an inch of retreat. In the stills of "Jae-hwan," "Young-il," "Man-seop" (Ryu Seung-ryong - wait, Kim Dae-myung), and "Yoon-hee" (Ryu Hye-young) gathered at the newspaper office, one can catch a glimpse of the tight solidarity among reporters trying to record the truth despite external pressures of the era.
Lastly, a mysterious back view looking toward the stage of the anniversary ceremony captures the breathtaking moment just before the incident, maximizing curiosity about the unpredictable mystery that the film "Assassins" will unfold.
"Assassins" is scheduled to be released in theaters this Chuseok holiday.
