The movie 'The Moon' brings the vastness of space to the screen.

On the 14th, CJ ENM released the teaser poster and trailer for the movie 'The Moon' (directed by Kim Yong-hwa), featuring a lunar rover running across the moon's surface under a dangerous meteor shower and scenes of people at the space center.

Opening on August 2, 'The Moon' depicts the desperate struggle of astronaut Sun-woo, who is stranded alone on the moon due to an accident, and Jae-guk, the former head of the space center, who desperately tries to save him. Kim Yong-hwa, who became a director with the blockbuster 'Along with the Gods' series (2017?2018), directed the film.

The manned spacecraft Woori-ho, the first in Korea to embark on lunar exploration, encounters an unexpected solar wind and becomes stranded. Astronaut Hwang Sun-woo, left alone in the vastness of space, desperately awaits help from Earth, 384,000 kilometers away from the moon. Jae-guk, the former head of the Korean space center responsible for the lunar mission, seeks assistance from Moon-young, the main director at NASA, to save Sun-woo.

Seol Kyung-gu, who plays Jae-guk, the former head of the space center, expressed confidence, saying, "The spectacle of the vast universe is intertwined with a story about humanity."

Do Kyung-soo stars as astronaut Sun-woo, and Kim Hee-ae plays Moon-young, the main director at NASA.
