Zombie Fever Continues: Yeon Sang-ho Announces Cast for New Film “Gunche”

The world of Korean cinema is buzzing with excitement as veteran filmmaker Yeon Sang-ho reveals the cast for his highly anticipated new zombie film, ‘Gunche’. Known for his hit films ‘Train to Busan’ and ‘Peninsula’, Yeon Sang-ho is no stranger to the zombie genre. And now, he is bringing his unique vision to life once again with ‘Gunche’. The film is currently in production and is set to hit the big screens next year.

But what has fans even more intrigued is the cast that Yeon has assembled for this project. The lead roles will be played by Jun Ji-hyun, Go Soo, Ji Chang-wook, and Koo Kyo-hwan.

One of the most exciting aspects of this film is the return of Jun Ji-hyun to the big screen after nearly a decade. Her last role in a movie was in 2015’s action thriller ‘Assassination’. Fans are thrilled to see her back in action, especially in a genre that she hasn’t explored before.

Distributed by Showbox, the film’s English title has not been confirmed yet. In the Korean language, “gunche” means colony in a biological context. With this intriguing title, fans are already speculating about the plot and what kind of zombie outbreak the film will explore.

The impact of Yeon’s previous zombie films on the industry and fans cannot be ignored. ‘Train to Busan’ and ‘Peninsula’ were both critically acclaimed and commercially successful, solidifying Yeon’s position as a master of the zombie genre. With ‘Gunche’, he is expected to raise the bar even higher and deliver a film that will be talked about for years to come.
