Real-time thriller Midnight FM’s new posters and trailer
by javabeans
Here are additional posters and stills for thriller-action film Midnight FM, as well as a longer trailer than the one that was previously released.
The movie stars Su Ae as a late-night radio DJ, while Yoo Ji-tae, who has so often played gentle, quiet characters, transforms into a nutjob stalker. He kidnaps her family members and turns Su Ae’s last broadcast into a nightmarish cat-and-mouse game. Yoo explained that his goal was to appear like a real psycho, rather than looking like he was acting as one, and dove into the character.
While the plot sounds pretty familiar, I’ll admit that the one thing that captures my interest is the fact that it’s a real-time thriller. I’m a sucker for real-time movies, which turn the very act of sitting in a movie theater for two hours into a framing device, by restricting its story to passing the time at the same rate as the viewer. In Midnight FM, those two hours come in the midst of Su Ae’s character’s live radio broadcast. (Also: Both actors have fabulous voices. Love how they sound in the preview.)
The movie opens next week, on October 14.
(If you watched the first preview, you may recognize much of the video below, but this version packs on an extra 30 seconds.)

I already love him but if we remember "oldboy", we can say he's one of the best choice for such a character

This looks interesting. Is in Seoul right now and ran into him in a cafe at the hotel. Couldn't remember his name just knew that he looked familiar. He looks hot, nothing like these pictures.
