Choi Dong-hoon's New Work 'Alien+In' Part 1 to Premiere This Summer

[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Isul] CJ ENM announced on the 3rd that director Choi Dong-hoon's new film "Alien+Human" Part 1 will be released this summer.

"Alien+Human" depicts a story that unfolds when the gate of time opens between Taoists trying to obtain a legendary sword from the late Goryeo period and those chasing an alien prisoner imprisoned inside a human body in 2022. It is the new work presented by director Choi Dong-hoon, who directed "Tazza" (2006), "The Thieves" (2012), and "Assassination" (2015), after seven years.

Actors Ryu Jun-yeol, Kim Woo-bin, Kim Tae-ri, So Ji-sub, Yeom Jung-ah, Jo Woo-jin, Kim Eui-sung, Lee Ha-nee, and Shin Jung-geun star in the film, which has attracted industry attention for its new approach of dividing the organically connected story from the planning and screenplay stages into Part 1 and Part 2.

The released launch poster features the quirky Taoist Muruk (Ryu Jun-yeol) trying to seize the legendary sword, the thunder-shooting woman Ian (Kim Tae-ri), the guard (Kim Woo-bin) managing the escort of the alien prisoner, detective Moon Do-seok (So Ji-sub) who becomes chased by aliens, and the two unique characters of the Samgaksan mountain immortals Heukseol (Yeom Jung-ah) and Cheongun (Jo Woo-jin).

The action scenes involving those chasing the legendary sword in late Goryeo and the alien prisoner in 2022, as well as spaceships, robots, aliens, and Taoists, provide a distinctive spectacle unique to "Alien+Human."

Thus, "Alien+Human" Part 1 is expected to offer a cinematic experience and enjoyment through its fresh story and visuals that cross the encounters between aliens and humans and the eras of modern times and Goryeo.
