Han Hyo-joo chases Jung Woo-sung in The Watchers

The poster and first teaser are out for the chase action thriller The Watchers (also going by the title Cold Eyes), starring Jung Woo-sung as a mob boss on the run from the law — the super creepy Big Brother Is Watching kind of law. I'm pretty sure Jung Woo-sung is still the bad guy at the end of the day. I think. It's hard to say with all the spying going on. Other than that, the teaser seems pretty straightforward: badassery-surveillance-chase-chase-chase.

The film is a collaboration between the directors of The World of Silence and Blue Salt, about the network of surveillance used by law enforcement. Leading Team Big Brother is Sol Kyung-gu, the veteran cop to underlings Han Hyo-joo and 2PM idol Lee Junho. The team is tasked with 'round-the-clock surveillance of criminal organizations, and they rely on the ridiculously vast array of CCTV cameras all over the city to track their targets. They finally meet their match in Jung Woo-sung, the head of the crime syndicate they're after, and a pro at dodging surveillance teams. He leaves no trace, moving through the city like a shadow.

Han Hyo-joo is a rookie to the team, but she has a photographic memory, which proves to be quite useful in the field. It also looks dangerous — the still down below looks like Jung Woo-sung turns the tables on her. So who's watching whom? I'm looking forward to seeing her do more action flicks, because she's growing out of her sweet innocent type in a nice way with her more recent projects, and I like the diversity she's starting to show. And Jung Woo-sung as a baddie should be fun.

The Watchers hits theaters July 4.

2PM Release ‘GROWN’ Posters

2PM have unveiled six new posters for their ‘GROWN’ comeback.

The release of the posters was to celebrate the physical album. 2PM have followed the same concept as “Come Back When You Hear This Song” where the boys are standing on the roof of a building staring out into the lens.

The new album is special because Junho, Jun.K, Taecyeon and Chansung helped in the writing of the lyrics and composition of the tracks. 2PM’s new album shows how the boys have grown up into adults. JYP Entertainment said, “The album that was released on the 13th have their mature images like the title song. Please show a lot of love”.

Jung Woo-sung and Han Hyo-joo headline action thriller

It's like action thriller heaven up in Chungmuro lately. Here's another one to add to the ever-growing to-watch list: Jung Woo-sung (Padam Padam), Sol Kyung-gu (The Tower), and Han Hyo-joo (Bandage) are headlining a chase thriller about surveillance, called The Watchers. They've actually been shooting it for a while, and the film has just announced its release date for the summer.

The new film from the director of The World of Silence stars Jung Woo-sung in his first villain role, as the head of a mob organization. I still can't believe it's his first baddie role — that can't be right, can it? I guess when you're pretty you tend to play the good guy; I mean, even in The Good, The Bad, The Weird, he played Good. Sol Kyung-gu is the leader of a special investigation team that's after Jung Woo-sung, and monitors him around the clock with a surveillance team. Weird how the good guys sound creepy once you call them The Watchers.

Han Hyo-joo plays the rookie on the team, who has an unusually keen sense of observation, fastidious attention, and a standout memory. So basically she's perfect for the job. Her boss is more the gut-and-instincts type, a veteran who's a bit reckless, but bursting with personality. And then the ace on their team is 2PM idol Junho, in his acting debut. His character is named Squirrel, because he's surreptitious and sly like no other.

The team is assigned to watch Jung Woo-sung for a chance to catch him, but he's notoriously cool-headed and has evaded countless attempts to follow, watch, or capture him in the past. Their job is to watch him without being seen, which doesn't sound easy even though they're the ones with all the invasively high-tech spy equipment. The movie is basically the cat-and-mouse game between slippery mobster and his surveillance team, as the watching leads way to chasing.

The Watchers hits theaters July 4.
