The movie ‘Invasion’, starring actress Kwak Sun-young and Girls‘ Generation’s Kwon Yu-ri, has confirmed its theatrical release in March and revealed its official poster.

‘Invasion’ is a psychological thriller that depicts the rift that occurs when Young-eun (Kwak Sun-young) whose daily life is falling apart because of her daughter So-hyun who behaves strangely, and Min (Kwon Yu-ri) who has lost her memories of the past 20 years later encounter Hae-young (Lee Seol).

The revealed official poster arouses curiosity with the unique visuals that highlight the tense expressions of the three entangled characters and the rift between them. First, the intense expression of Kwak Sun-young as Young-eun, who single-handedly raises her 7-year-old daughter So-hyun who is different from others and struggles to prevent her daughter‘s dangerous behavior, catches the eye. Attention is focused on how an ordinary daily life will be destroyed because of her daughter and what choices Yeong-eun will make to prevent it. Here, the appearance of Kwon Yu-ri (played by Min) and Lee Seol (played by Hae-young) staring somewhere with different expressions raises curiosity about the events and unpredictable drama that will occur when they face each other.

‘Invasion’ was previously a film adaptation of a webtoon of the same name, which was originally a movie scenario, and was first recognized for its unique story and character narrative, recording an overall webtoon rating of 9.82 points. It was invited to the 29th Busan International Film Festival’s Korean Cinema Today-Panorama section, and was recognized for its artistic quality, receiving praise that it “​has a fiercely pushing charm.”​
