"The K-Pop Story" (2023)

Directed by Yoon Jae-yeon

With Yang Dong-geun, Ahn Suk-hwan, Don Mills, Cha Ru-ha, Jeong So-mi, Yoon Jin-sung,...

Synopsis
In a world where the value of dreams is no longer questioned, is it still valid to pursue our dreams? Dong-geun, who has served time in prison for embezzlement, receives a proposal from Yoon, the director of the financial investment company, and the entertainment agency CEO, to embezzle money from a cultural arts fund. Once a cult musician known as DG, Dong-geun encounters a three-member co-ed group called "What's Up", and rediscovers his passion for music, even in the harsh reality with no promising future. The story of an artist who had given up on his dreams and adapted to reality, but discovers talented newcomers and embarks on a journey to achieve their dreams, may seem like a common tale. However, the most universal stories often have the strongest power!

The scenes where DG and What's Up come together to sing and move people's hearts through the common denominator of music are deeply moving. The fact that we can witness the performance of the actor and musician, Yang Dong-geun, in the song "The woman in the rain", alone makes this work unmissable. MO Eun-young
