New Drama from BE WITH ME Director Aims for Summer Shoot

Stars Yoon-a, PARK Jung-min and LEE Sung-min are positively considering offers to appear in Miracle (translated title), the sophomore feature outing for Be With You (2018) director LEE Jang-hoon.

Based on a true story and set in the 1980s, Miracle will follow the story of Bo-kyung and her math prodigy brother Jin-kyung (PARK Jung-min). Together with Jin-kyung’s girlfriend Ra-hee (Yoon-a), they work with the people of their village to make a train station. LEE Sung-min will play Bo-kyung and Jin-kyung’s father.

Superstar Yoon-a, a member of the world-famous K-pop outfit Girls’ Generation, had an impressive silver screen debut with her supporting role in the Lunar New Year action-comedy hit Confidential Assignment in 2017 and followed that up with her first leading role in the disaster action-comedy EXIT, another smashing success that drew well over 9 million viewers (USD 65.48 million) last summer.

PARK Jung-min, who became a star after appearing in DONGJU; The Portrait of a Poet (2016), was recently seen in Tazza: One Eyed Jack (2019), START-UP (2019) and Time to Hunt. Veteran LEE Sung-min’s recently credits include The Spy Gone North (2018), The Beast (2019) and Mr. Zoo: The Missing VIP.

Director LEE debuted with Be With You, a romantic fantasy drama based on a Japanese novel. Starring SON Ye-jin and SO Ji-sub, the film was a hit in early 2018, drawing 2.6 million viewers (USD 17.2 million), as well as warm responses from audiences and critics.

Blossom Films, previously behind Warriors of the Dawn (2017) and Dark Figure of Crime (2018), will produce the project, which is expected to go into production in late July or early August.
