A little less than a month away from the upcoming release of the new action thriller, The Target, fans are getting a deeper look into what the film promises. Several stills have gone viral before and after the explosive first teaser that unveiled earlier last month, and now we have an official trailer, several character posters, and videos that take you behind the scenes of all the action, suspense and thrills reimagined by way of French filmmaker Fred Cavaye’s 2010 feature gem, Point Blank. Unfortunately all the videos are embedded with Korean subtitles, which either may or may not be an issue for some of you, but the footage is still worth the look if you are fan of action films or Korean cinema in general.
Once a skilled mercenary, Yeo-hoon now leads a normal life. One day he goes on an errand and enters an office to discover a man murdered. The killers also attack and chase Yeo-hoon who is shot and wheeled off to a hospital. The murdered man is identified as a corporate leader and Yeo-hoon becomes the prime suspect. Yeo-hoon is admitted to the hospital where Tae-jun, who leads a happy life with his pregnant wife Hee-joo, works. While on night duty, Tae-jun saves Yeo-hoon from the killers. The next day, Hee-joo is kidnapped and Tae-jun receives a phone call demanding Yeo-hoon to be released from the hospital for Hee-joo’s life. To save his wife, Tae-jun helps Yeo-hoon escape from the hospital and together they embark on a dangerous 36-hour pursuit.
