Coupang Play Offers 72-Hour Free Access to Webtoon-Based Thriller 'Invasion'
Coupang Play presents an extraordinary free benefit in celebration of the golden holiday.
From May 2 to 4, viewers can experience the webtoon-based mystery thriller movie 'Invasion,' which premiered on March 12, free of charge for just 72 hours.
Any Coupang Wow member can take advantage of this benefit through the 'Coupang Club' on the My Page section of Coupang Play.
Notably, this offer allows viewers to enjoy 'Invasion' freely for a week from the time of application, making it exciting news for those seeking a gripping thriller at home during the holiday period.
A Psychological Thriller Exploring Human Nature and Maternal Love
'Invasion' unfolds as a psychological thriller involving 'Young-eun' (Kwak Sun-young), a mother whose life collapses due to the strange behavior of her psychopathic daughter 'So-hyun' (Ki So-yu), and 'Min' (Kwon Yu-ri) and 'Ha-young' (Lee Seol), who entangle with her while living their lives with forgotten memories from 20 years ago.
This work is praised as more than just a horror film; it poses profound questions about human nature, memory, and maternal love.
The original webtoon achieved a high rating of 9.82 for its fresh story development and meticulous emotions, while the movie successfully translates the unique narrative of the original, reimagining it as a highly immersive psychological drama.
The performances of the actors are also noteworthy. Kwak Sun-young portrayed the complex psyche of a mother collapsing under her daughter's changes with restrained acting. Kwon Yu-ri and Lee Seol convincingly expressed characters engulfed in anxiety and confusion, enhancing the tension of the narrative.
Internationally Recognized Artistic Quality and Coupang Play's Content Strategy
'Invasion' has garnered attention at prestigious film festivals both domestically and internationally.
Beginning with the 29th Busan International Film Festival, it has been officially invited to the 72nd Sydney Film Festival, the 44th Hawaii International Film Festival, and the 23rd Florence Korean Film Festival, attesting to its artistic merit and completeness.
