Director Yeon Sang-ho's new film "Gunche" (provided/distributed by: ㈜SHOWBOX│produced by: WOWPOINT, Smilegate│co-produced by: Midnight Studio│director: Yeon Sang-ho) released a still of the character Han Gyu-seong played by actor Go Soo.
"Gunche" is a film about isolated survivors inside a building sealed off by an unexplained outbreak who confront infected people evolving into unpredictable forms.
Han Gyu-seong in "Gunche" is played by actor Go Soo, who has built trust over a long time by delivering steady performances in many works such as the drama "Reverse", "Parole Examiner Lee", "Missing: The Other Side", "Money Game", and the films "The Fortress", "The Front Line" and "A Barefoot Dream". Having consistently brought characters to life realistically and firmly held the center of each work, curiosity grows about what kind of performance he will show this time.
On the day before he was due to emigrate to the United States, Han Gyu-seong went to the Dunguri building to introduce a job to his ex-wife Kwon Se-jung, who had failed to be reappointed as a professor, and unexpectedly became trapped. He hides from the suddenly arriving infected, but discovers other survivors in danger and is exposed to the infected first while trying to save them. Willing to risk himself for others, Han Gyu-seong is expected to be perfectly realized by Go Soo's look—one gaze that instills trust in the audience just by his appearance.
The released still maximizes tension by showing Han Gyu-seong in a hair-trigger situation. The warmth that had filled his eyes instantly shifts to a vigilant look sharply watching a situation that cannot be let down for a moment, making viewers wonder how he will overcome this crisis. Go Soo described the character as "a person who serves as the entrance from ordinary daily life into a film world where infected people strike," and said, "He will convey the warmth of humanity to the audience," raising expectations for the Han Gyu-seong character who will lead audiences into the film from the starting point of "Gunche."
Scheduled to open in theaters in May.
