Capping off Netflix’s scintillating K-Drama adventure this 2021 season, The Silent Sea sealed its premiere on December 24!
Set in the year 2075 when the depletion of natural resources has devastated Earth, this Netflix Series tells the story of an elite team sent on a special mission to an abandoned research base on the moon.
Collaborated by superb actors Gong Yoo, Bae Doona, Lee Joon and more, the series is a series based on director Choi Hang-yong’s short film by the same name.
In the unveiled teaser poster featuring Bae Doona, her character Song Ji-an, an astrobiologist is seen setting foot on the moon. She is a member of an elite team sent to the moon to save Earth from ruin.
Her lone figure on the moon, still an infinitely mysterious place that remains an uncharted territory for humans, piques our curiosity in this story of exploration and prepares the ground for the question, “What happened at an abandoned Korean research base?”
While looking for clues to save Earth, team members become mired in mysterious predicaments and unforeseen events that occur in outer space. Their fates hanging by a thread will keep viewers on the edge of their seats.
The short film received much acclaim at the 13th Mise-en-scène Short Film Festival in 2014. Jung Woo Sung was enthralled by this story that Choi has been crafting for over a decade. “I loved the spectacular ideas behind the story. I wanted to be involved in creating a sci-fi series that is uniquely Korean,” Jung said. His participation in the production of the series has garnered much attention from early on.
Also joining the creative process of this intriguing story of exploration is writer Park Eun-kyo, who received Best Screenplay awards at the Korean Association of Film Critics Awards for Mother and at the Blue Dragon Awards for Crush And Blush.
With the synergy and the intense suspense they create, the sci-fi thriller The Silent Sea will surely become the grand finale to the year 2021 for Korean films and series.
The Silent Sea will be released worldwide on December 24th, only on Netflix.
