Han Suk Kyu and his colleague Lee Jang Gil (Song Kang Ho) face off against North Korea's 8th Special Corps Commander Park Mu Young (Choi Min Sik) and the South Korean spies and even internal spies.
The film depicts a tense espionage war that is about to unfold. Released in 1999, it was the starting point of the Korean film renaissance and changed the conventional wisdom of theater box office success. "Shiri" has decided to be re-released in theaters in a 4K remastered version.
"Shiri" won the Grand Prize, Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Actor awards in the Film category at the 35th Baeksang Arts Awards, as well as the Best Director award and the Korean Film with the Most Audience Award at the 20th Blue Dragon Film Awards, winning the accolades of both the public and critics.
In particular, when "Shiri" was released, it was the first Korean film to feature never-before-seen powerful action scenes, a spectacular scale of spectacle, a thrilling espionage war, and unmissable emotions.
It was acclaimed as a blockbuster and established itself as the biggest hit of the 90s. The two posters of "Shiri", which has returned in a 4K remastered version to meet new audiences, are true to its name.
The poster, which features the overwhelming aura of Korea's best actors, also draws attention. The poster, which features Han Suk Kyu, Choi Min Sik, Song Kang Ho, and Kim Yun Jin, is centered around the image of the Korean peninsula.
The other poster features Han Suk Kyu, who plays special agent Yoo Jun Won, and Song Ga, who plays Lee Jang Gil, with a map in the background.
The image of Ng Ho pointing his gun at the enemy, combined with the nervous expression of Choi Min Sik, who plays Park Moo-young, the commander of the 8th Special Forces of North Korea, heightens curiosity about the relationship between the characters.
The copy, "Believe or protect?", teases the unexpected development of the TV series.
The intense gaze of the actress is expected to inject a tense atmosphere into the film, raising expectations. The 4K remastered version of "Shiri" is scheduled to be released in theaters in Korea on the 19th.
