If you stop, you die instantly! A series of desperate decisions!! The movie "Escape" will be released on June 20th (Friday) at Shinjuku Piccadilly and other theaters nationwide.
The role of Gyu-nam, a soldier who attempts a life-threatening escape from North Korea, will be played by actor Kim Jong Un, who has appeared in "Signal" and "Revenge Agent: Model Taxi".
The role of Hyeon Sang, the army major who relentlessly pursues the protagonist, is played by Koo Kyo Hwan from "DP - Deserter Pursuer", and he perfectly expresses the conflict of an elite soldier.
In addition, Hong XaBin from "In This Bad World" and Song Kang, whose popularity is on the rise with "Navirella", will have a decisive influence on Hyun Sang's life.
He plays a key role. The director of this film is Lee Jung-pil, who directed the 2020 Korean hit "Samjin Company 1995".
In addition, the song "Yanghwa Bridge" by Zion.T, who collaborates with artists such as Gen Hoshino and SIRUP, adds color as an insert song, making the movie nonstop from the beginning to the end.
The film received praise from audiences in Korea for its sense of tension. The story focuses on the North Korean troops guarding the military demarcation line. Sergeant Gyu-nam (Lee Je-hoo) is about to finish his military service.
In search of freedom, he plans to escape to South Korea. However, when he finally tries to carry out his escape, he is beaten to it by his subordinate, a low-ranking soldier named Dong-hyuk (Hong Xa Bin).
Gyu-nam tries to stop him, but unfortunately, he is found by the guards and the two are arrested together. However, under the direction of Hyeon-sang (Koo Kyo Hwan), a major in the security department and Gyu-nam's childhood friend,
He is celebrated as a hero for capturing Donghyuk by the police, and Gyun-am is transferred from the front line to Pyongyang. He has no freedom, no dreams, and no way to escape from the fate that was decided by others.
Gyu-nam, disgusted with his life of being unable to escape, decides to run again. He sneaks past Hyeon-sang and once again attempts a desperate escape towards the Military Demarcation Line, but encounters unexpected difficulties.
The time limit for the escape is only two days. Will Kyonam be able to survive?

The film begins with a comment from director Lee Jung-pil: "The film depicts the fundamental desire of a person to escape in a speedy and simple way. It is a story about a man who wants to escape from the existing system and acts on it.

The video shows the actors concentrating on their acting, something that we don't usually get to see. The video then transitions to "Plan#2. Escape Execution." In this part, the actors are seen from the rear of the set.
The actors' impressions were given starting from the most memorable parts. Koo Kyo Hwan responded, "The North Korean party scene was amazing!" The scene showed a gorgeous dance hall, and he was impressed by it.
It is said that there is a scene where gentlemen and ladies dance ballroom dancing. Lee Je Hoon also expressed his surprise by saying, "This is the first time we've seen a scene of troops near the military demarcation line in a movie."
The making-of footage also includes realistic depictions of the vast grasslands and North Korean military training scenes, making it clear that this is a work that pursues authenticity.
At the end, the director appeared again and explained the characters played by Lee Je Hoon and Koo Kyo Hwan. Director: "Gyu-nam just keeps moving forward. The pleasure of running is what makes him stand out."
"I wanted to show the emotional fluctuations in the relaxed chase scenes. I wanted to match the character and the message of the movie," he said.
Lee Je Hoon commented with a smile, "It's satisfying when someone you're rooting for and supporting gets their wish granted. This is a movie I want to see in theaters now."
