K-Grandma Youn Yuh-jung's 'Wedding Banquet' Releases on September 24

The film 〈Wedding Banquet〉, which will be unveiled to domestic audiences through the 30th Busan International Film Festival, is an unpredictable comedy featuring a K-Grandma with a keen sense of awareness who gets involved in the fake wedding plans of two same-sex couples. The released main trailer captures the lightheartedness of the fake wedding operation of the two same-sex couples, heralding the birth of a delightful and charming comedy. The third-generation chaebol Min (Han Gi-chan) plans a fake marriage with Angela (Kelly Marie Tran) on the condition that he supports the IVF costs for the couple of Li (Lily Gladstone) and Angela. However, the arrival of Grandma Ja-young (Youn Yuh-jung), who flies in from Korea upon hearing the news of her grandson's wedding, turns the lives of the four characters upside down, leading to unpredictable happenings. In particular, the traditional wedding scene conducted according to Grandma's wishes draws attention. The sight of 'Angela' in a traditional dress and 'Min' in a formal outfit performing a Korean traditional wedding evokes a unique sense of fun and curiosity. However, the plan faces a crisis with the sharp remark from the K-Grandma Ja-young, who says, "Of course, Grandpa is waiting for your wedding. Are you all fools?"

Additionally, the character ensemble completed by the gay couple 'Min' and 'Chris' (Bowen Yang), the lesbian couple 'Li' and 'Angela', and 'May' (Joan Chen) delivers both cheerful laughter and a warm message. The presence of Youn Yuh-jung and Han Gi-chan, along with the reinterpretation of Korean traditional wedding culture through a Hollywood lens, adds a special charm to the film. Furthermore, the rave reviews from major overseas media in the trailer also heighten the anticipation of prospective audiences. "Delightful and charming!" (The Hollywood Reporter), "A captivating work with a new sensibility!" (Collider), "Explosive laughter! Overwhelmingly wonderful" (The Wrap), "A bold approach to love, relationships, and happiness" (OUT) are among the praises that raise expectations for the romantic comedy 〈Wedding Banquet〉, which will bring cheerful laughter to domestic theaters in September. The film 〈Wedding Banquet〉 is set to be released exclusively at Lotte Cinema on September 24.
