The Unique Presence of Lee Jae-in in ‘Concrete Market’! Choi Hee-ro Shakes the Order of Hwanggung Market

Lee Jae-in, who has shown a unique presence in every work and is gaining attention as the next generation of the film industry, will once again showcase evolved acting as ‘Choi Hee-ro’ in 〈Concrete Market〉. This winter, the film 〈Concrete Market〉 promises an unprecedented level of immersion and intense genre thrill, set in Hwanggung Market, where items are bought and sold in the only remaining apartment after a major earthquake, and tells the story of individuals starting transactions in their own ways to survive.

The released stills capture the secretive appearance of ‘Choi Hee-ro’, who hides in Hwanggung Market, which is set up to buy and sell anything in the only remaining apartment after the major earthquake, for purposes other than trading. As curiosity about how the outsider ‘Choi Hee-ro’ disrupts the order of ‘Hwanggung Market’ grows, expectations for Lee Jae-in’s passionate performance, showcasing a new face with a rough expression, intense gaze, and long, untamed hairstyle, are increasing. In particular, attention is drawn to how Lee Jae-in’s strength in detailed emotional acting will create synergy with the tension unique to disaster genres.

Lee Jae-in, who debuted as a child actor, rose to prominence as a promising star in Chungmuro after winning the Best New Actor award at the 55th Baeksang Arts Awards for his mesmerizing performance in the film 〈Sabaha〉. Since then, he has surprised the public with a diverse acting spectrum that does not seem like the work of a single person, appearing in dramas [Racket Boys], [It’s Night], the recent work 〈High Five〉, and [Unknown Seoul]. With continuous growth and transformation, Lee Jae-in is set to once again showcase his true worth through this work 〈Concrete Market〉. 〈Concrete Market〉 will be available exclusively at Lotte Cinema on December 3rd (Wednesday).
