The movie "Killing Time", starring Ryu Hyeyoung and Nam Yoon-su, has confirmed its theatrical release for October and released a teaser poster.
"Killing Time" is a time-attack thriller that follows the internet broadcasting crew "Killing Time", who lost everything in a momentary accident and are attacked by a mysterious presence at an abandoned hospital they visited to make a comeback, as they struggle to survive against the merciless attacks.
Ryu Hyeyoung, who has built her own unique color by moving back and forth between television and the screen in works such as "Reply 1988", "Law School", "Law and The City", and the upcoming releases "The Intern" and "The Assassin(s)", takes on the role of Yeon-woo and leads the story. Yeon-woo is a streamer for "Killing Time" who lost everything in an instant due to a team member's death, and Ryu Hyeyoung is expected to deliver an intense presence by densely expressing the desperation of Yeon-woo, who is suddenly driven into a life-or-death struggle.
Nam Yoon-su takes on the role of Ju-won, the leader of "Killing Time" who pushes a boundary-crossing game all the way through. Nam Yoon-su, who has drawn attention for his limitless character-portrayal skills in "Extracurricular", "Beyond Evil", and "Love in the Big City", is expected to show a new side never seen before through the role of Ju-won, a PD of dogged determination who tries to create hit content even in a blood-soaked abandoned hospital for a comeback.
The "Killing Time" crew, led by the two, engages in a desperate struggle to survive within a limited time from the moment they encounter a mysterious presence, delivering extreme tension.
The released teaser poster immediately captures attention by featuring a broken play button stained with blood. The play button in the center of the black screen is shattered and stained with red blood, hinting at the shocking reality of a "killing" live broadcast where a life-or-death situation unfolds in real time.
In addition, the playback bar reminiscent of a real video player adds a feeling of logging into someone's live broadcast to stimulate curiosity, and the copy "It ends when you die" heightens the tension of a survival game where they must survive until the very end.
"Killing Time" will be available in theaters in October.
