Just a few months after making a successful entry into the Korean marketplace with KIM Jee-woon’s critically acclaimed spy action-thriller The Age of Shadows (2016), US major Warner Bros. headed back to Korean screens in February with their second local language production A Single Rider. Though a smaller budget project with a new director, the film features stars LEE Byung-hun, fresh from Inside Men (2015), Master (2016) and a supporting appearance in The Age of Shadows, and KONG Hyo-jin, last seen in MISSING (2016), in the lead and was shot on location in Australia. In the director’s chair is LEE Zoo-young, helming her first feature film. LEE is a graduate of the Korea National University of Arts.

Jae-hoon (LEE Byung-hun) is a talented fund manager but when his company goes bankrupt, he is suddenly on the brink of losing everything. Facing his own despair, he goes on a spontaneous trip to Australia, where his wife Soo-jin (KONG Hyo-jin) lives with their son Jin-woo for his education. As he arrives he witnesses their happy life and soon begins to feel pangs of jealousy when he witnesses the relationship between his wife and her next-door Australian neighbor Kris. He watches on from a distance, looking for signs of an affair. Also in Australia is a Korean student who is visiting the country for a working holiday.
