“The Moon” is directed by Kim Yong-hwa, one of the most prominent genre directors in Korean cinema. It stars veteran actor Sul Kyung-gu (Phantom, The Book of Fish, Man of Men, Birthday) and EXO member Doh Kyung-soo (Underdog, Swingkids, Along With The Gods series) as an astronaut stranded in space. The cast also includes award-winning actress Kim Hee-ae (The World of the Married).
In The Moon, Korea’s first manned mission to the moon ends in a tragic disaster when an explosion occurs on board. Seven years later, a second human spaceflight is launched successfully but a strong solar wind causes it to malfunction. One astronaut Sun-woo (DOH) is left stranded in space. Facing another fatal catastrophe, the Naro Space Center turns to its former managing director Dr. Kim (SUL) to help bring Sun-woo back home safely.
