The teasers promise a moving journey as two wounded souls – one with a limited time, the other haunted by the past – find healing through their unexpected connection. Given how talented Jeon Yeo Been and Namkoong Min are, audiences will likely resonate with their pain and struggles.
Despite being terminally ill, Jeon is the epitome of sunshine, whereas Min fears a flop after his debut movie was a blockbuster. Our Movie will take viewers on a soul-stirring, painstakingly beautiful journey over the course of 12 episodes.
