    Following his fantasy romance hit Be With You (2018) with SON Ye-jin and SO Ji-sub, director LEE Jang-hoon will soon return with his sophomore feature, the heart-warming drama Miracle: Letters to the President. Based on a real event that took place in 1988, the film follows Joon-kyung, played by PARK Jung-min (Keys to the Heart, 2018), a high school student and math prodigy who lives in a small village in North Gyeongsang Province that has a train track but no stop for the train passing through. Without that stop, Joon-kyung is forced to spend hours walking to school. After sending countless letters to the president pleading for a stop to be installed in his village, Joon-kyung relies on his math skills to earn a special President’s Award in order to meet the head of state in person. 

     

    Girls’ Generation and EXIT (2019) star LIM Yoon-a portrays Ra-hee, the friend who believes in him, and LEE Soo-kyung of The Odd Family: Zombie on Sale (2019) plays his younger sister. Veteran star LEE Sung-min (The Man Standing Next, 2020) also features as Joon-kyung’s father, the conductor of the train that passes through the station-less village who shares his son’s dream. The people of the village come together to establishe a private station, the first of its kind, as well as the country’s smallest. by pierce conran
