What We Know So Far About Song Joong Ki's New Romance Film
Loh Kiwan is Song Joong Ki, a North Korean defector who fights desperately to have his status as a refugee recognized in Belgium. He works with Marie (Choi Sung Eun), a Korean professional shooter with a Belgian citizenship.
Unlike Loh Kiwan who travels all the way to Belgium in hopes to survive, Maries has lost her reason to live, but as she collaborates with Kiwan, she unintentionally falls in love with him.
The award-winning actor attempted the crime noir genre through the film "Hopeless," which was released in October 2023, but failed miserably at the box office. Attention is focused on whether he could make a change this time so that the regret of some can be alleviated through the upcoming Netflix romance film.
