Watch: Son Suk Ku And Nagayama Eita Get Entangled Through A Serial Murder Case In “The Blue Road” Teasers

Netflix’s upcoming drama “The Blue Road” has unveiled a new poster and teaser!

“The Blue Road” is the latest project from director Han Jun Hee, who helmed the “D.P.” series and the film “Coin Locker Girl.” The film follows the story of two detectives tracking a series of murders that occur across both Korea and Japan.

Son Suk Ku plays Kim Seok, a detective with the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency’s Mobile Investigation Unit, while Nagayama Eita portrays Inose, a detective from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department’s First Investigation Division. The two, who possess contrasting personalities and investigative styles, find their paths intertwined by a recurring case that transcends national borders.

The poster features Kim Seok and Inose standing in the back alleys of Japan and Korea, respectively. Behind them appear mysterious messages written in both Korean and Japanese. The bodies, found with their limbs twisted, and the messages left at the scenes serve as the key clues connecting the serial murders.

In the trailer, the process of the two detectives tracking the case in their respective locations is shown through rapid cross-cutting. Phrases written in Korean and Japanese using the victims’ blood are discovered at the scenes, and Kim Seok and Inose delve into the fact that the crimes are spanning across both countries.

There is a distinct difference in how they approach the investigation. Kim Seok pursues suspects by pushing through crowds, while Inose clings to the case with explosive emotions. Notably, a scene featuring a bloodied and collapsed Kim Seok with Inose looking down at him suggests that their relationship is not merely one of cooperation.

Kim Shin Rock joins the cast as Lee Yoon Ok, a Zainichi Korean businesswoman. With a mysterious tiger painting appearing in the background of the case, a major question remains as to how Lee Yoon Ok, the two detectives, and the serial murders are all connected.

Watch the full teaser below!

“The Blue Road” is set to make its world premiere in the On Screen section at the 31st Busan International Film Festival, which will be held from October 6 through 15. Director Han Jun Hee, along with actors Son Suk Ku, Nagayama Eita, and Kim Shin Rock, are scheduled to attend the festival to meet with audiences.

‘The Blue Road” is set to be released on November 20. Stay tuned!

Park Bo Young And Son Suk Ku In Talks To Star In New Film By “Hi-5” Director

Park Bo Young and Son Suk Ku may be starring together in a new film!

On July 8, a media outlet reported that Park Bo Young and Son Suk Ku have been cast in director Kang Hyung Chul’s new film “If I’m With You” (literal title).

In response to the report, Park Bo Young’s agency BH Entertainment stated that the actress had received an offer to star in the upcoming film “If I’m With You” and is currently “reviewing the offer.” Son Suk Ku’s agency further commented that he has “only received the offer.”

“If I’m With You” is a fantasy romantic comedy about events that unfold aboard a cruise ship. The film is the latest project from director Kang Hyung Chul, who previously helmed hits including “Scandal Makers,” “Sunny,” “Tazza: The Hidden Card,” “Swing Kids,” and “Hi-5.”

The film marks Park Bo Young’s reunion with director Kang Hyung Chul for the first time in 18 years since the 2008 box office hit “Scandal Makers,” which drew 8.22 million moviegoers. The film was both Kang Hyung Chul’s feature film debut and Park Bo Young’s first major box office success, making the reunion especially meaningful for the two.

The project is also drawing attention because it marks the first time Park Bo Young and Son Suk Ku will star together as the leads in a fantasy romantic comedy. Their unexpected pairing has already generated considerable excitement.

Son Suk Ku has built a strong image through projects such as the blockbuster “The Roundup,” “A Killer Paradox,” “D.P.,” “Big Bet,” and “My Liberation Notes.” The actor is gearing up for the release of the Netflix series “Road” (working title). Park Bo Young, who is known for hits including “Oh My Ghost,” “Strong Woman Do Bong Soon,” “Doom at Your Service,” and “Our Unwritten Seoul,”  recently starred in the Disney+ series “Gold Land.”

Son Suk Ku, Ha Jung Woo, Ji Chang Wook, And More Confirmed For New Film

Son Suk Ku, Ha Jung Woo, Ji Chang Wook, Hyun Bong Sik, and Seo Hyun Woo will star in Netflix’s new film “The Generals” (working title)!

Directed by Yoon Jong Bin of “Narco-Saints” and “Nine Puzzles,” “The Generals” tells the story of Roh Tae Woo, the second-in-command who stands beside absolute ruler Chun Doo Hwan, wearing the mask of an “ordinary person” while striving for greater power, along with the people around him.

Director Yoon Jong Bin, known for portraying people struggling to survive in worlds shaped by rigid hierarchies and class systems, will once again explore the raw faces of his characters and their survival strategies against the backdrop of modern Korean history in “The Generals.”

Son Suk Ku plays longtime second-in-command Roh Tae Woo. He is set to portray the complex and subtle inner life of Roh Tae Woo, who was long remembered only as the friend of absolute ruler Chun Doo Hwan and a perpetual No. 2, as he finally rises to the top position he has long sought.

Ha Jung Woo plays Chun Doo Hwan, the absolute power at the center of the military regime. Anticipation is building for the pairing of Son Suk Ku and Ha Jung Woo, who will depict a close friendship formed as classmates at the Korea Military Academy, along with the complex and subtle relationship between a No. 1 and a No. 2.

Ji Chang Wook will play Heo Hak Seong, a junior from the Korea Military Academy whom Roh Tae Woo sees as a thorn in his side, adding sharp tension to the story.

In addition, Hyun Bong Sik will play Jung Ho Joong, a classmate and friend of Roh Tae Woo and Chun Doo Hwan.

Seo Hyun Woo will play Park Cheol Woong, a public security prosecutor at the Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office and an aide to Roh Tae Woo.
