THE THIEVES (Dodookdeul)
“All for the money. One for the revenge. Every man for himself.”
WEREWOLF BOY (Neuk-dae-so-nyeon)
“Summoned by an unexpected phone call, an elderly woman visits the country cottage she lived in as a child. Memories of an orphan boy she knew 47 years ago come flooding back to her.”
9 MUSES OF STAR EMPIRE
“9 Muses of Star Empire’, a year-long chronicle that follows a journey of an all girl pop group ‘9 Muses’, portrays the every-day life of nine girls, relentlessly pursuing their dreams in a world of jealousy, betrayal, and scandal. ‘9 Muses’ is an emerging girl group, aspiring to perform on a national stage and gain world-wide fame just like millions of others. For that, the girls have decided to set everything aside and live as one of the Muses for ‘Star Empire’; the entertainment company which created and coordinated every move. What’s the price they must pay for their dreams?”
