Yumi Jung and Sunkyun Lee's 'Sleep', Expected Points to Captivate the Hearts of the Audience

The movie 'Sleep' has revealed the expected points that will capture the hearts of the audience.

'Sleep' predicts an eerie fear by adding a unique setting of 'abnormal behavior during sleep' to the material of sleep, which is the most common act. The moment she falls asleep, her husband Hyeon-soo (Lee Sun-kyun) suddenly changes like a stranger and walks around the house doing unpredictable things. As a result, his wife Su-jin (Jung Yu-mi), who cannot sleep and trembles with anxiety, lives in the same space and faces unavoidable fear as the person she trusts the most turns into an object of fear. This realistic material and unique concept elicits extreme empathy and immersion and raises curiosity.

Another point to look forward to is the intense acting transformation of the actors Jung Yu-mi and Lee Sun-kyun, whom we trust and see. The unrivaled actress Jung Yu-mi takes on the role of Su-jin, a wife who can't sleep, and presents an active character who faces fear to save her family even though she is in a terrifying situation due to her husband Hyeon-su's abnormal behavior while sleeping. In particular, he completed a three-dimensional character with a wide spectrum of acting, from a friendly newlywed to a strong figure struggling to solve the mystery of fear.

Actor Lee Sun-gyun, who draws attention with an eerie appearance that is the source of fear, presents intense suspense through the role of Hyeon-soo, a husband who is afraid to fall asleep. Every night, from being seized with anxiety that he might endanger his family due to his abnormal behavior during his sleep, he completely digests the opposite duality of acting like a stranger and acts horrific. will provide
