[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Isul] "'Broker' is a film that talks about the noble emotions that humans possess."
Actor Song Kang-ho said this in the 'Beginning of Broker' intro video released on the 26th by the film 'Broker' (director Koreeda Hirokazu).
The 75th Cannes International Film Festival competition entry 'Broker' depicts an unexpected special journey of those connected through a baby box. The released video shows Sang-hyun (played by Song Kang-ho) and Dong-soo (played by Kang Dong-won) setting off on a journey along a coastal road.
Director Koreeda Hirokazu explained, "It is a story about people who are not related by blood forming a family through a journey centered around a baby." The director also expressed confidence, saying, "It is a film where you can enjoy the actors' performances, including the role of the baby."
Baek Doo-na, who plays Su-jin, said, "It is a film that conveys the director's unique sense of humanity." Singer and actress IU (Lee Ji-eun) plays So-young, and Lee Joo-young appears as Detective Lee.
'Broker' will be screened at the Cannes Film Festival next month and will be released in June.
