Han So-hee & Jeon Jong-seo Starrer 'Project Y' Unveils Intriguing Stills, Sets January 2026 Release

The upcoming film 'Project Y' has heightened anticipation with the release of captivating stills featuring its lead stars, Han So-hee and Jeon Jong-seo. The images offer a glimpse into the complex relationships and thrilling narrative of the movie.

Directed by Lee Hwan, 'Project Y' tells the story of Mi-seon (Han So-hee) and Do-kyung (Jeon Jong-seo), two friends living in the heart of a vibrant city, dreaming of a different tomorrow. Their lives take a dramatic turn when they find themselves at the edge of a cliff, leading them to steal black money and gold bars.

The newly released stills showcase the intertwined lives of seven distinct characters who are drawn into the pursuit of this illicit fortune. Mi-seon and Do-kyung, who once lived fiercely in pursuit of a normal life, lose everything after facing a profound betrayal. Subsequently, they obtain information about the 'Boss' (Kim Sung-cheol)'s black money and devise a plan to steal it, inadvertently acquiring his hidden gold bars as well, which attracts dangerous attention.

Stills of Mi-seon and Do-kyung walking side-by-side on a dark city street, and another showing them intently observing something amidst a dense forest, raise questions about how these two friends, having seized 'one chance' at the brink of their lives, will navigate the ensuing crisis.

Furthermore, a scene depicting Ga-young (Kim Shin-rok) angrily grabbing Do-kyung by the collar sparks curiosity about the past connection between these three characters. The collection of stills also features a melancholic Mi-seon, a stoic Do-kyung behind the wheel, a pensive Ga-young, the cold-hearted Hwang-so (Jeong Yeong-ju), Seok-gu (Lee Jae-gyun) seemingly in on a conspiracy, Ha-kyung (Yoo Ah) captured mid-speech, and the chilling 'Boss'. The diverse charms and entangled relationships of these seven characters surrounding the black money and gold bars promise a compelling cinematic experience.

'Project Y' is slated for release in theaters on January 21, 2026.

Netizens expressed excitement, commenting things like "The combination of Han So-hee and Jeon Jong-seo is incredible!", "The movie's vibe looks so intense, can't wait to see it!", and "The character relationships are what I'm most looking forward to."
