The film will be released in Japan. Stills from Kwon Yuri, Kwak Sun Young, and Lee Sul, who overturned their previous image and showed off their impressive acting, have been released! The director's comments have also been released.
Will you be able to maintain your sanity in front of this child? The shocking work "Invasion" exposes the depths of the intertwined relationship between the "invader" and the "invaded."
This film has been invited to many prestigious film festivals around the world, deeply touching the hearts of viewers, and achieved the remarkable feat of being the first Korean live-action film to debut at number one.
The mother is obsessed with her daughter, who cannot understand her mother and looks at her with ominous eyes. 20 years later, a cheerful and innocent intruder suddenly appears in the home of a woman who has lost her childhood memories.
The two stories, one past and one present, are connected by an "unexpected intrusion" and intertwine like hell. The story is so intense and realistic that it creates a suffocating tension and disturbing murmur.
The film evokes a sense of madness that slowly eats away at the depths of the hearts of all who watch. Kwon Yuri (Girls' Generation), Kwak Sun Young, and Lee Sul, three actors, completely shed their respective images.
They have taken on a new role in this film, sharply and sensitively portraying characters who are shaken by their own choices and abandoning their past. The actresses delicately express the complex intertwining of emotions, creating a sense of tension and depth throughout the film.
After debuting as a member of Girls' Generation, she appeared in the film Dolphin and the TV series The Defendant and Possum: The Stealer of Love and Destiny.
Kwon Yuri has steadily built her career with a variety of works across genres, including "The Man Who Was Killed" and "Parole Examiner Lee Hanshin." In "Invasion," she plays a man who has lost his memory and cannot open up to others.
She plays the cool Min. She completely changes her previous bright and healthy image and gives a surprisingly sensitive and profound performance, bringing the complex character of Min to life.
To embody his stubborn, emotionless personality, he was meticulously crafted to create a visual that incorporates trimmed bangs, freckles, and subdued colors, carefully capturing the realism of the character.
She played the bright and cheerful Lee Ik-sun in "Hospital Playlist," Hwang Ji-hee, the wife of Jang Joo-won who has psychic powers and Hee-soo's mother in "Moving," and Jang Joo-won in "Crash."
Kwak Sun Young is a talented actress who has played a variety of characters with naturalness, including the role of Min So-hee, the charismatic head of the traffic crime investigation division in "The Invasion."
She plays Yeong-eun, a mother whose daily life is disrupted by her uncontrollable daughter, who is known for her diverse talents and solid acting skills that draw the audience in, and she demonstrates those skills once again in this film.
She makes full use of her talent, bringing a sense of tension and deep immersion to the entire film. She delicately portrays the complex emotions that waver between her motherly responsibilities and the helpless fear she feels for her daughter, and
Lee Sul, who chose her stage name with the desire to become an actor who can tell a different story for each work, is true to her words: "I want to be a bad actor."
He has steadily built his career with a variety of works, including "The Devil Calls Your Name" and "The Devil Calls Your Name." In "Invasion," he suddenly appears in front of Min, showing his friendliness as if they had been together for a long time.
She imbues the elusive character of Hye-young with unpredictable charm, and as the story progresses, her expression changes from innocent and cheerful to
By skillfully manipulating this contrast, Hye-young's "true nature" gradually emerges before the audience, leaving a strong impression on the viewer's mind.
The directors of this film are Kim Yo-jeong, who was involved in the production of "Gyeongju," and Lee Jung-chan, who was assistant director on "Sad Beast." They wrote the scripts separately, but they both agreed to work together.
They found commonalities between the characters in their stories, and as co-directors, they created a new work. With a 20-year time gap as the axis, they meticulously weave together the emotional strains and conflicts of the characters.
The film's structure is well-integrated and the suspenseful storytelling has attracted attention. Director Lee Jung-chan said, "The core of this story is about motherhood and humanity.
Is it evil? Can one's true nature be controlled? What is a true 'family'? The questions this film raises are endless," said director Kim Yo-jeong, adding, "The characters
Each of them exists in the realm of "motherhood" and is constantly being tested. Is motherhood an instinct, or something imposed by society? The answer is left to the viewer.
"We wanted to portray the various forms of sexuality," he added. Regarding the casting, they both agreed, "YURI is a member of Girls' Generation and has gained worldwide popularity, so she has a star image.
However, when I actually met him, I felt the loneliness that is unique to top stars. I thought that the way he has his own emotions that other people don't know about would suit Min, and it overturned my previous image of him.
I also wanted to try it. I fell in love with Sunyoung after watching the TV series special "Ordinary Jaehwa." I had a bright and lively image of her, but when I saw Sunyoung's face, I also wanted to try it.
I felt that she had a cool beauty and wanted to work with her in that way, so I was honored when the opportunity came. I knew that Sol had great acting skills. I thought she was a cool person.
But when I actually met her, she was incredibly charming. She's very cheerful, but she also seems to be hiding something, which I thought suited Hye-young, so I cast her.
"SOYOU is an actor who can act just as well as adults, and the role of Soyeon was a very difficult one, so I felt that it had to be SOYOU."
As the relationships between the three intersect, madness comes to light, and the impression of the three people is completely overturned. The film "Invasion" will be released at Shinjuku Piccadilly and other theaters nationwide from Friday, September 5th.
