Now, if this isn’t the very definition of a tease: These newly released images from Miracle, the upcoming movie starring Kim Kang-woo and Kim Bum, aren’t even official stills but a glimpse at the raw footage. Just enough to pique curiosity, but not enough to really satisfy.
These two pics were uploaded to Kim Kang-woo’s Twitter account, and depict a (camera-phone?) capture of the film camera’s monitor. So you’re basically seeing the Kim vs. Kim face-off through at least three screens: the camera filming the scene, filtered through a cell phone, filtered through your computer.
The movie is about a violent crimes detective (Kim Kang-woo) who is investigating a child disappearance and possible murder when he comes across a suspicious young graffiti artist (Kim Bum) and thinks he’s the culprit. The wording on that means he’s wrong about the suspect, though it’ll probably take a while for him to figure that he’s barking up the wrong tree. Hence our photos.
The film is described as a fantasy thriller, which seems like an odd distinction. I’d say it’s probably better referred to as a paranormal crime-mystery, because Kim Bum’s graffiti art depicts murders prior to their occurrence (like Heroes meets Minority Report?). Or maybe like a paranormal Itaewon Murder Case, in the way both movies pit bulldog cop versus youthful suspect, with hot young stars cast as said subjects.
As for Miracle, despite the vague and misleading title (I certainly don’t get crime thriller from it, do you?), I do enjoy both Kim Kang-woo and Kim Bum when they’re being intense, so I’ll keep an eye on this one. The movie is currently filming (obviously) and plans to release later this year.

This looks cool, but disturbing, too. I wonder why I get that impression?
Sounds awesome but the title just doesn’t fit.
I think we’d have to see the movie to see if the title fits. I’d wait before making decisions about the movie.
Great leads here. I like Kim Kang-woo
The title Miracle (기적?) doesn’t seem to suit the story though.
Well, off-hand I’d say it’s a miracle if Bummie’s graffiti can predict a murder and its components. As for using Miracle as a title, don’t think so. It would have been a better title for Padam Padam, along with Kim Bum’s glorious, white angel wings.
One thing’s for sure – hope Bummie maintains the level of intensity in his acting that he displayed for Padam – no more cutesy flower boy stuff for him.
I just can’t wait for this. I’ve been waiting for the trailer since forever it seems.
You had me at Kim Bum…

I love me a good thriller movie. And Korea does them so well.

Maybe it should have been named “Graffiti”? No. How about “Draw”? “Art”, “Before”, “Prior”, “The Artist”, “Picture This”, “Murder”, “Before You Scream”, “Disappear”, “The Anatomy of Art”, “Spray”
Ok don’t know where some of those came from. Just roll with it.
kim bum is effin’ HOT!!!
I’m really curious! I like crime series, so I can dive in…
Miracle…. Kim Bum isn’t going to be an angel again, right?
Kim bum still a baby in my eyes.. I hope it’ll turn out great for bummie though.
