‘Number One’ Countdown Test Officially Opens! Face Time with Loved Ones in Numbers!

The movie 〈Number One〉 is set to become the first family healing movie of the New Year 2026, and has unveiled a ‘Countdown Test’ that allows audiences to experience the film's message in a unique way.

The film 〈Number One〉 tells the story of ‘Hamin (Choi Woo-shik)’ who starts to see a number that decreases each time he eats his mother’s food, and learns that when the number reaches 0, his mother ‘Eun-sil (Jang Hye-jin)’ will die. It highlights the finite nature of time spent with family, which is often taken for granted, through its unique premise of the number decreasing with each home-cooked meal, leaving a deep resonance and empathy.

The newly launched 〈Number One〉 ‘Countdown Test’ is an online participatory content designed based on the film's core message. Participants can calculate how much time they have left to spend with their parents by answering simple questions. This expands the questions posed by the film on screen into an experiential activity outside the screen, providing audiences with another emotional experience.

The 〈Number One〉 ‘Countdown Test’ proceeds by asking questions about everyday choices, where participants choose one of two options for each question. Once all questions are completed, the remaining time to spend with parents is presented in hours and days. Just as the numbers in the film hold special meaning, the numbers presented as test results encourage participants to reflect on their own time, allowing them to intuitively feel the value of family and time that 〈Number One〉 aims to convey. In particular, the countdown test is designed with an intuitive UI that anyone can easily participate in, allowing sharing with family, friends, or partners, or sharing results through social media. Although it is a simple test, it naturally evokes memories of moments spent with parents in daily life and emphasizes the importance of the present moment.

By opening a countdown test that cleverly utilizes a unique premise that started in ordinary daily life, the film 〈Number One〉 takes a step closer to the audience and will be released in theaters nationwide on February 11.
