Disney+ has unveiled the main poster and trailer for its original series 'Polaris,' which promises overwhelming scale and unique character experiences.
Disney+'s well-made global project 'Polaris' has released the main poster and trailer that intrigue viewers about the intertwined relationships among the characters. 'Polaris' follows 'Moon Joo' (Jun Ji-hyun), who has built an international reputation as a United Nations ambassador, as she chases the truth behind the assassination attempt on a presidential candidate, encountering a colossal truth that threatens the Korean Peninsula along with 'San Ho' (Gang Dong-won), a nationality-less special agent who must protect her.
The main poster, which was released first, captures the attention with the intense visuals of the characters in 'Polaris' who are in pursuit of the enormous truth hidden behind the assassination attempt on the presidential candidate. Set against the backdrop of a city in the midst of a massive explosion, the expressions of each character placed in a dire situation threatening the Korean Peninsula and their contrasting gazes create a palpable tension, building anticipation for an unpredictable storyline ahead. Furthermore, the tagline, "Who will you trust, and what will you protect?" heightens expectations for the conflicts and genre thrills of espionage and romance that will unfold amidst characters who cannot trust one another.
The main trailer released alongside heightens anticipation for the drama that will ensue as characters move towards hidden truths amidst the overwhelming scale and lurking threats in 'Polaris.' 'Moon Joo,' who decides to run for president to uncover the truth behind the assassination attempt that shook Korea, becomes embroiled in dangerous incidents that threaten her life.
Meanwhile, after encountering Moon Joo for the first time at the scene of the incident, 'San Ho,' who has been watching from a distance, resolves to protect her and directly proposes, saying, "Hire me." In response, Moon Joo asks, "Will you follow orders unconditionally?", maintaining her vigilance. Additionally, the sharp warning from 'Yoo Un-hak' (Yoo Jae-myung), the head of the National Intelligence Service, who says, "Be careful of this man," raises curiosity about what choice she will make between trust and doubt, and how their relationship will evolve within the espionage romance genre.
Furthermore, a colossal risk that could escalate into World War III is gradually approaching the Korean Peninsula, with Deputy Minister Anderson Miller (John Cho) making efforts to shift the direction of the storm, and South Korean President Chae Kyung-sin (Kim Hae-sook) doing her best in the presidential role. The story also involves influential figures such as Lim Ok-sun (Lee Mi-sook), the chairman of Asean Shipping, who holds sway over Korea's political and business circles, and prosecutor Jang Joon-sang (Oh Jung-se), who harbors ambitions to chase Moon Joo. As curiosity is sparked about who the true mastermind is threatening global safety and what the approaching storm symbolizes, Moon Joo declares, "If there's a script behind all this, I'll find out," showing a strong determination that piques viewers' interest.
The intense confrontations among characters, each driven by their own desires in a story where one cannot predict what lies ahead, significantly raise global expectations for 'Polaris.'
With its unique casting, the collaboration of a well-made production team, and an unpredictable story that surpasses imagination, Disney+'s original series 'Polaris' is being highlighted as a must-see global project in 2025, set to release three episodes on Sept. 10 (Wed.), and two episodes weekly starting Sept. 17 (Wed.), totaling nine episodes.
