Here's a Rundown for "Space Sweepers" + Song Joong Ki and Kim Tae Ri's Characters
"Space Sweepers" is a fictional film that stars famous actors, namely Song Joong Ki, Kim Tae Ri, Jin Seon Kyu, and Yoo Hae Jin. The film is set in the future year 2092, where Earth is no longer habitable and is close to becoming extinct. A large technological company called UTS builds a new home in outer space where only selected people can live in. The human race was divided into two groups, the UTS citizens and the non-citizens who cannot enter the new home in outer space.
Other non-citizens end up working as space sweepers: they collect space debris floating in Earth's orbit and selling it to the company for survival. The story centers on the group of space sweepers who operate the Victory spaceship. The crew consists of Tae-ho, Captain Jang, Tiger Park, and Bubs.
