Jeon Do-yeon and Sol Kyung-gu's hidden face as a cruel killer

Four types of character posters for the Netflix movie ‘Gil Bok-soon’ (directed by Byun Seong-hyun) have been released.

On the 3rd, Netflix released character posters for the main characters Jeon Do-yeon, Sol Kyeong-gu, Lee Som, and Koo Kyo-hwan in 'Gil Bok-soon', where the charm of the characters can be vividly felt.

'Gil Bok-soon' is the story of Gil Bok-soon (played by Jeon Do-yeon), a legendary killer in the contract killing industry, who gets caught up in an unavoidable confrontation where he either dies or is killed, just before renewing his contract with the company. It was officially invited to the special section of the 73rd Berlin International Film Festival.

The released character posters attract attention with sensuous visuals that stand out in colors tailored to each character's personality. The calligraphy reminiscent of 'Kil Bok-soon', the nickname of Gil Bok-soon (played by Jeon Do-yeon), and the blood-red pattern decorating the poster raise curiosity and expectations about the world of killers in the hit-for-hire industry that 'Gil Bok-soon' will present.

The poster of Gil Bok-sun (played by Jeon Do-yeon), an ace killer at MK ENT, the best company in the contract killing industry, with a red background, stands out for its powerful visuals. Jeon Do-yeon takes on the role of Gil Bok-soon, a special A-level killer who has never failed, and shows off dynamic action never before seen. At the same time, she portrays a close yet distant mother-daughter relationship with her daughter Gil Jae-young (played by Kim Sia), who have secrets they cannot tell each other, creating a new story. We plan to show our charm.

The character poster of Cha Min-gyu (played by Sol Kyeong-gu), the CEO of MK ENT, who established the rules and conquered the contract killing industry, stimulates curiosity by capturing his complex expression whose true intentions are unknown. To the cruel killer Cha Min-gyu, Gil Bok-soon is an exception from other killers as he is more than just a disciple and an employee. However, as Gil Bok-soon hesitates to renew his contract, Cha Min-gyu wants to keep him by his side even as MK's sword, and as a result, the relationship between the two, which gradually cracks, is expected to become another point to watch in 'Gil Bok-soon'.

The poster of Cha Min-hee (played by Lee Som), Cha Min-gyu's only younger brother and the director who manages MK ENT's management, clearly shows her unpredictable personality. Cha Min-hee, who does not like the fact that her older brother makes an exception only for Gil Bok-soon, keeps Gil Bok-soon in check in every situation. With her outspoken behavior hidden behind her mischievous expression, Cha Min-hee plays an axis in the unpredictable development.

The poster of Han Hee-seong (played by Koo Kyo-hwan), a killer belonging to MK ENT like Gil Bok-soon and whose skills are A-level, but for some reason is C-level, shows a red color in a monotone background. Han Hee-seong is close enough to his senior, Gil Bok-sun, that they talk about each other's inner thoughts, but he plans to show a complicated side of himself that suffers from internal conflict due to the wall of grade that cannot be overcome and the lack of recognition for his skills.

Meanwhile, 'Gil Bok-soon' will be released on Netflix on the 31st.
