Kim Seol-jin, Jin Yoo-chan, Oh Han-gyeol, Ahn Se-ho, and Jeong Jae-eun Shine in 'The Savior' Ahead of Release
Actors Kim Seol-jin, Jin Yoo-chan, Oh Han-gyeol, Ahn Se-ho, and Jeong Jae-eun are making a strong impression with their impactful presence, no less than the main cast, in the upcoming film 'The Savior'.
On the 28th, the film 'The Savior' released still cuts featuring the supporting cast members, hinting at their significant roles in the movie.
'The Savior' is a mystery occult film about a couple, Young-beom (Kim Byung-chul) and Seon-hee (Song Ji-hyo), who move to the blessed land of Obong-ri. Miraculous events unfold, only for them to discover that these blessings come at the cost of someone else's misfortune.
Kim Seol-jin, recognized for his unique physical expression skills as a contemporary dancer and active actor in works like 'Vincenzo' and 'Sweet Home', takes on the role of a mysterious elder at the center of the film's enigmatic events. Director Shin Jun commented, "The role of the elder required an actor who could express emotions through their body without dialogue. Actor Kim Seol-jin contemplated and portrayed various visualizations of an elderly person for the film."
At the core of the narrative, where miracles and curses intertwine, are Jong-hoon, the son of Young-beom and Seon-hee, and Min-jae, the son of Chun-seo (Kim Hieora). Actor Jin Yoo-chan portrays Jong-hoon, bringing to life the poignant family emotions and miraculous moments with his acting prowess honed through dramas like 'Blind' and 'The King of Tears, Lee Bang-won'. Oh Han-gyeol, who has built a stable acting foundation as a child actor in series such as 'Suspicious Partner', 'Live', 'Are You Human?', 'Nights and Days', and 'Crash Landing on You', plays Min-jae. His character gets entangled in unexpected events through his encounter with Jong-hoon, and Oh Han-gyeol will delicately portray his transformation.
Ahn Se-ho plays Dong-jin, who is in pursuit of the missing elder, while Jeong Jae-eun takes on the role of Pastor Kim of the Obong-ri Church, both delivering powerful performances. Ahn Se-ho, a scene-stealer known for his memorable roles in dramas like 'May It All Come True' and films such as 'Seoul Spring' and 'The Roundup: No Way Out', is expected to make another significant impact in 'The Savior'. Jeong Jae-eun, an actress who has proven her stable acting skills in the movie 'The Grandson' and dramas like 'Happiness' and 'Kill It', will realistically portray the character's duality, expressing inner conflict and desires hidden behind a gentle smile.
'The Savior' is set to premiere nationwide in theaters on November 5th.
Netizens are expressing high anticipation for Kim Seol-jin's unique portrayal of the elder character, praising the solid supporting cast including Jin Yoo-chan, Oh Han-gyeol, Ahn Se-ho, and Jeong Jae-eun. Many are curious about how Kim Seol-jin will convey emotions solely through physical expression and how the supporting actors will contribute to the film's mysterious atmosphere.
