In addition to this musical event, fans may also be interested in the neo-noir action-thriller film The Man From Nowhere, which remains available for viewing on iQIYI. The film features late actress Kim Sae-ron and one of South Korea’s highest-paid actors, Won Bin. A renewed interest in this film has emerged due to controversy surrounding Kim Sae-ron's recent personal challenges.
The Man From Nowhere, released in 2010, follows the story of Cha Tae-shik (played by Won Bin), a former secret agent who leads a solitary life in an old pawnshop. His life changes when he befriends a little girl named Soo-mi (portrayed by Kim Sae-ron). As they form a close bond, Soo-mi's mother becomes involved in a drug and human trafficking gang, leading to her kidnapping. The film depicts Cha's desperate attempts to rescue her, showcasing themes of friendship and sacrifice. For more details, fans can visit facebook.com/iQIYIThailand.
In another corner of the entertainment world, The Remarried Empress is generating excitement as its production begins. Reports in January 2025 indicated that top actors Shin Min Ah, Lee Jong Suk, Ju Ji Hoon, and Lee Se Young were approached to star in this historical drama based on a web novel. On March 19, 2025, K-media outlet TV Report revealed that producer Joo Seung Hwan hinted at a confirmed cast by posting a picture of an airplane on social media along with the actors’ names. This strong suggestion has heightened anticipation for the show.
If confirmed, the project promises to be spectacular, considering the talents involved. Directed by the acclaimed Jo Soo Won, known for hits like Pinocchio and I Hear Your Voice, the series focuses on Navier (played by Shin Min Ah), the perfect empress who decides to divorce Emperor Sovieshu (played by Ju Ji Hoon) upon learning of his plans to make his mistress, Rashta (played by Lee Se Young), empress. The plot thickens when she remarries the powerful Heinrey (played by Lee Jong Suk), the heir to the throne of the Western Kingdom.
This highly anticipated drama is set to premiere on Disney+ next year, marking the third collaboration between Ju Ji Hoon and Shin Min Ah, following The Devil and Kitchen. It will also reunite director Jo Soo Won with Lee Jong Suk after their work on Pinocchio.
As fans of K-pop and K-drama eagerly await these exciting developments, it’s clear that South Korean entertainment continues to captivate audiences both domestically and around the world.
