The film 'Gangneung,' exclusively distributed by Studio Santa Claus, is scheduled to be released in November and stars actors Yoo Oh-sung and Jang Hyuk. It is a crime action film depicting betrayal arising from the ambitions and conspiracies harbored by different organizations surrounding the construction of the largest resort in Gangneung.


Actors Yoo Oh-sung and Jang Hyuk, who play the lead roles, had previously announced that they would portray adversaries, raising audience expectations. The two actors also formed opposing roles in the 2015 drama 'The Merchant: Gaekju 2015,' which has piqued viewers' interest in what kind of rivalry they will have in this film.


A representative from Studio Santa Claus said, "We have recently been promoting our affiliated actors through OTT platforms and actively expanding our business by producing and distributing dramas and films across various genres. We expect that 'Gangneung,' which we are distributing this time, will also showcase the essence of a well-made crime action film."


They added, "Going forward, we will continue to nurture actors to maintain our reputation as a gathering place for talented actors, collaborate with OTT platforms, and enhance corporate value to lead the K-content industry through content production, investment, and distribution."



Meanwhile, the Netflix series 'My Name,' produced by Studio Santa Claus, is set to release its main episodes on the 15th and has been receiving favorable reviews after its world premiere as part of the 'On Screen' section at the Busan International Film Festival.
