The film "Humint," directed by Ryu Seung-wan, distributed by NEW, and produced by Oeyunaegang Co., Ltd., which opens on Wed., Feb. 11, has wrapped up the grand journey of a special DDP (Dongdaemun Design Plaza) exhibition—the first-ever attempt by a Korean film.
The film "Humint," opening in February, successfully concluded the special exhibition held at the DDP Igansumun exhibition hall from Mon., Jan. 12 to Sun., Jan. 25.
The meeting between Korea's representative cultural space DDP and Korean cinema attracted attention from the announcement of the event as an unusual encounter never before attempted, expanding the cinematic experience into an offline space. In particular, the venue became a special place for audiences awaiting the film by presenting photos personally taken by actor Park Jeongmin and stills photographer Kim Jin-young, as well as previously unseen making-of footage.
Reviews from prospective viewers who experienced the exhibition through various social media drew attention. Exhibition visitors left a range of reactions, such as "preheated before watching 'Humint'!", "I want to book tickets after seeing the exhibition", and "a substantial and atmospheric space." Meanwhile, official videos of actors visiting were released online after a preview at the exhibition. Seeing the actors who visited the exhibition in person admire each photo one by one and recall memories from the shoot conveys an exceptionally strong teamwork.
The film "Humint" tells the story of people with different objectives clashing in Vladivostok, where secrets and truths are submerged in a cold sea of ice. The anticipated film "Humint," which is expected to heat up theaters during the Lunar New Year holiday moviegoing season, opens in theaters on Wed., Feb. 11.
