Director HAN Jae-rim will reveal his third feature film project "Trace" – a US $7.7 million superhero blockbuster – at the Asian Film Market's PPP, a major project market that takes place during the Pusan Int'l Film Festival in October. Based on a web-based comic series by the same title, Trace is the story of Yoon-sung, a young man who wakes up with supernatural powers after days in a coma after an assault that takes his father's life. When the assault remains unsolved due to an apathetic police, Yoon-sung takes matters into his own hands. He discovers that another man with superpowers, Hee-sup, was involved and that he wants Yoon-sung dead. The project is to be produced by Syd Lim and SEO Woo-sik of Barunson Film Division.
