2nd Korean Production from Warner Bros.
LEE will play a branch manager of an investment firm who sends his wife (played by KONG) and son to Australia for school. When he loses everything, he travels there to meet them.
Despite a rocky start, LEE ended 2015 on a high note with the massive success of
Inside Men, which attracted over nine million viewers to theaters. LEE has also signed on to shoot the thriller
The Master, with
GANG Dong-won and
KIM Woo-bin, but with
Single Rider beginning in March, it is unclear when that will happen.
Star of numerous films and TV shows, including 2008’s
Crush And Blush, GONG hasn’t appeared on the big screen since
Boomerang Family in early 2013. Before
Single Rider, she will first be seen in the recently wrapped thriller
Missing Child, alongside
UHM Ji-won.
Warner Bros. will finance and distribute the film in Korea. Following
20th Century Fox (
Intimate Enemies, 2015;
Goksung), they are the second studio to venture into local productions for the Korean market.
