‘Hidden Face’ is a unique locked-room thriller that unfolds as ‘Soo-yeon’s’ junior ‘Mi-ju’ appears in front of ‘Sung-jin’ who was chasing the whereabouts of his missing fiancée ‘Soo-yeon’, and ‘Soo-yeon’, who was thought to have disappeared, witnesses her bare face exposed while trapped in a secret space closest to them.

‘Hidden Face’ garnered attention even before its release due to the collaboration of Korea‘s top actors Song Seung-heon, Jo Yeo-jeong, Park Ji-hyun, and genre master director Kim Dae-woo. In addition, it presented a fresh shock to theaters with an unpredictable development centered around the missing fiancée and the locked room.

In particular, the three actors’ groundbreaking acting transformation made the audience more immersed in the dangerous relationship and desire, and brought the genre‘s fun to the peak. As a result, it surpassed 1 million cumulative viewers, becoming the highest-grossing Korean film with a youth-restricted rating released in 2024, and the first youth-restricted film to surpass 1 million in the past five years since ‘Tazza: One-Eyed Jack’ (2019).

‘Hidden Face’, which took over theaters at the end of 2024, can be found starting today on various online and mobile platforms such as IPTV (KT Genie tv, SK Btv, LG U+tv), digital cable TV (Home Choice), Coupang Play, Google Play Store, KT Skylife, Webhard, and Cinefox.

Meanwhile, ‘Hidden Face’ is also being screened in theaters nationwide.
