'Remember' is the new work of director Lee Il-hyung, who directed 'A Violent Prosecutor' (2016), which attracted 9.7 million viewers.

815 Pictures, which distributed 'The Outlaws 2' and 'Kingmaker' in North America, described 'Remember' as "an action film that well incorporates Korean history," adding, "Although the protagonist is elderly, his determination to complete his revenge is something that all North American audiences can deeply relate to."

Megaton Entertainment, which distributed 'A Violent Prosecutor' in Hong Kong, said, "We trust director Lee Il-hyung. Lee Sung-min's performance is as excellent as ever, and Nam Joo-hyuk also delivered an outstanding performance, harmonizing well together. The emotional connection formed between the two evokes great emotion."

Additionally, 'Remember' has been invited to the 42nd Hawaii International Film Festival. Starting with the international premiere screening on November 5th, it will be shown twice on the 6th.

The film is scheduled to be released on the 26th.
