Trailer For The Korean Rescue Action Thriller RANSOMED
Well Go USA has released a trailer for a Korean action thriller titled Ransomed. The movie follows a young diplomat who is tasked with carrying some ransom money to rescue an abducted diplomat in Lebanon. As you might expect, a lot of things go wrong.
In the story, after a South Korean diplomat (Ha Jung-woo) is sent to the Middle East he “suddenly receives a coded message from an abducted colleague who was long been presumed dead, he volunteers to lead the dangerous rescue mission. But when the plan goes awry, he's forced to team up with a local taxi driver—the only Korean expat he can find—and go deep into the heart of Lebanon in a final desperate attempt to bring their fellow countryman home.”
The movie actually looks like a good thriller. I’m actually really into watching Korean movies and shows right now. They tell some great stories! Ransomed is directed by Kim Seong-hun (How the Lack of Love Affects Two Men, A Hard Day, Tunnel, Kingdom: Ashin of the North, and The Kingdom).
Ransomed will be released in select US theaters starting August 4th, 2023.
