It would not be misplaced to say that 2020 was a successful year for actor Park Jung-min. The 34-year-old actor featured in two highly anticipated projects last year, “Time to Hunt” and “Deliver Us from Evil“, both of which were very well received and his performance of a transgender character in the latter earned the actor much applause and awards. His first work in 2021, “Miracle: Letters to the President” comes halfway into the year and is helmed by “Be With You” director Lee Jang-hoon.
Synopsis
In 1988, math genius Joon-Kyeong lives in a small village. The village has a railroad that passes through it, but it doesn't have a train station. Joon-Kyeong's life long dream is to have a railway stop at his village. He tries different ways to get a station built, including writing dozens of letters to the South Korean president.
After “Be With You”, Lee Jang-hoon's sophomore effort is once again set in a remote Korean countryside village. Besides Park, other stars onboard the project also include Lee Sung-min (“The Witness“) and singer/actress Yoona (“Exit“). The film is scheduled for a June, 2021 release in South Korea.
