Trailer for 'Hijack 1971' starring Ha Jung-woo and Yeo Jin-goo was released for the first time
'Hijack 1971' is a film about the extreme situation that occurred when a passenger plane was hijacked in the airspace of Korea in 1971.
The released poster captured the tense moment of kidnapper Yong-dae (Yeo Jin-goo) pointing a gun at first officer Tae-in (Ha Jung-woo). The sight of Captain Gyu-sik (Seong Dong-il), who is watching anxiously from the captain's seat with blood streaming from his head, and Ok-soon (Chae Soo-bin), the only flight attendant on the plane, who looks terrified, suggests an urgent situation.
Yongdae's cool eyes cause extreme tension. Tae-in's expression, which seems to be struggling to protect the safety of the passengers from Yong-dae, adds to the curiosity about what choice he will make. The copy, “Passengers with different destinations boarded,” foreshadows the conflicting situations of those trying to head to different destinations on the same plane, raising expectations for the urgent choices and conflicts between Yongdae, who is trying to go North, and the characters who are trying to protect the passengers. .
The chilling sight of the hijacker, Yongdae, threatening to turn the plane's nose towards North Korea heightens the tension as to what kind of chaos the passengers will be thrown into. A fighter jet chasing a passenger plane heading north heralds an exhilarating thrill and a sense of coolness that will blow away the summer heat. This, coupled with the caption, "Everyone risked their lives on this flight," and the images of each person doing their best to survive, raise curiosity about where this plane will be headed.
'Hijack 1971' is scheduled to be released in theaters on June 21st.
