Leading lady Uhm Jung-hwa is taking to the high seas with OK! Madam: Bon Voyage, directed by Lee Chul-ha. The sequel reunites the star and director following the first film in 2020 which found its footing with audiences even as the Covid-19 pandemic forced screening cancellations.
OK! Madam: Bon Voyage also features returning cast members Park Sung-woong, Lee Sang-yun and Bae Jung-nam, along with the additions of Ryeo-Un, and Sooyoung from Girls’ Generation. Screendaily‘s Michael Rosser, who reported on CJ 4DPlex’s expansion into narrative features with the movie back in March, sums OK! Madam: Bon Voyage as follows:
Set six years after the Hawaii airplane hijacking incident of the first film, Mi-young’s life is weighed down by her rebellious teenage daughter Nari, her unemployed husband Seok-hwan (Park), and her struggling twisted-doughnut store. One day, Hyun-min (Bae), a flight attendant she met during the hijack, visits and invites her family to his wedding on a luxury cruise ship. Excited, she suggests a family trip but after a cold response Mi-young decides to board the cruise alone.
However, despite initially enjoying her long-awaited freedom at sea, armed assailants seize the ship on the eve of the wedding. To make matters worse, her husband and daughter are kidnapped and brought to the boat as Mi-young realises she is being targeted. Under siege, she teams up with charming magician Ji-hoon (Ryeo-Un) to fight back and save both her family and the passengers.
OK! Madam: Bon Voyage opens for its Korean release on August 12. Watch the trailers below and take a gander at the slides of posters just beneath!
