On the afternoon of the 10th, a press and distribution premiere of the mystery film 『Face" (directed by Yeon Sang-ho and produced by Wow Point) was held at Megabox COEX in Samseong-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul. At the premiere of the 50th Toronto International Film Festival, the main characters of 'Face' staying in Toronto, Canada, took the place of a video conference. The video conference was attended by Park Jung-min, who played dual roles including Lim Young-kyu's youth and his son Lim Dong-hwan, and Kwon Hae-hyo, who played the present role of Lim Young-kyu, Shin Hyun-bin, a woman who has never seen the face of her husband Lim Young-kyu and her son Dong-hwan, Lim Sung-jae, the president of the Cheonggyecheon sheath factory where Jung Young-hee worked, Han Ji-hyun, who directed a documentary about the life of producer Kim Soo-jin, and director Yeon Sang-ho.
Park Jung-min was one reader who felt favored with the original work of this work. When I said that this work would be made into a movie, I thought it was an opportunity to make a movie that could convey the writer's message and the movie's message to the audience in a heavy way for the first time in a long time. Basically, it is good for director Yeon Sang-ho to create a work that grunts society. That's why I was willing to participate."
Formally invited to the 50th Toronto International Film Festival Special Presentation Section, 'Face' tells the story of a blind but reborn man, a master of all fields, and his son digging into the mystery of the death of his wife and mother, who have been buried for 40 years. Park Jung-min, Kwon Hae-hyo, Shin Hyun-bin, Lim Sung-jae, and Han Ji-hyun appeared, and Yeon Sang-ho, director of 'Train to Busan'Ban Peninsula', took the megaphone. It will be released on the 11th.
