Actors Hyun Bin, Park Jung-min, Jo Woo-jin, and Jeon Yeo-been reveal intense new personas. Director Woo Min-ho's latest film, "Harbin," will be unveiled this December. The first poster and trailer were released on the 5th. Hyun Bin takes on the role of An Jung-geun, Deputy Commander of the Korean Independence Army. His monologue fills the one-minute trailer, capturing the horrors and journeys of the independence soldiers. "I was ready to give up everything and die. The harrowing screams of my fallen comrades echoed in my ears and floated before my eyes. In that moment, I realized I live on behalf of my deceased comrades."

The vast landscapes captured the viewers' attention. The film was shot across Mongolia, Latvia, and South Korea. Above all, the ensemble acting of the cast is highly anticipated. With a solemn expression, Hyun Bin says, "I knew what I had to do," and "We must kill and eliminate the old wolf, the leader of the Japanese wolves ravaging the Korean Empire." "Harbin" is a spy thriller. Set in 1909, the film depicts the pursuit and suspicion between those heading to Harbin, driven by a singular purpose, and their pursuers. This is Director Woo Min-ho's first film in four years. He has been acclaimed for his sharp portrayal of eras in works like "The Man Standing Next," "The Drug King," and "Inside Men." Hive Media Corp has teamed up with Director Woo for this production. Hive Media Corp has previously produced "Spring in Seoul" and "Deliver Us from Evil." Before its domestic release, "Harbin" will premiere worldwide at the Toronto International Film Festival on the 8th (local time). Hyun Bin, Lee Dong-wook, and Director Woo Min-ho will attend the event.
