The movie "Pagwa" is an action drama depicting the confrontation between "Jogak" (played by Lee Hye-young), a legendary killer in an organization that eliminates people likened to cockroaches, and "Tuwu" (played by Kim Sung-cheol), a killer who has pursued her for his entire life.

The film delivers both tension and lingering emotion, thanks to the delicate direction of director Min Kyu-dong, the passionate performance of Lee Hye-young who brings to life the unprecedented character of a female killer in her 60s, the strong presence of Kim Sung-cheol, which is not overshadowed by Lee Hye-young, the fierce rivalry between the two characters, and the hidden narrative. The main cast includes Lee Hye-young, Kim Sung-cheol, Kim Mu-yeol, Yeon Woo-jin, Kim Kang-woo, Ok Ja-yeon, Cynthia, and Jung Hyun-joon.

The movie will be screened twice, at 3:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m., with a running time of 122 minutes. Admission is free and available on a first-come, first-served basis for those aged 15 and above. Standing room is not allowed when the venue is full, and eating or drinking inside the performance hall is prohibited.

An official from the county said, "Pagwa is a refreshing action film perfect for the hot summer, with a particularly impressive series of exhilarating action scenes in the latter part of the movie. We hope you will beat the summer heat by enjoying the film with your family or loved ones."
