The movie ‘Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint ‘has caught everyone’s attention by releasing character posters and a teaser trailer that piques curiosity.

‘Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint ‘is a fantasy action film about a novel that has been serialized for over 10 years, but on the day it ends, the world within the novel becomes reality, and the only reader,’ Kim Dok-ja ‘, must survive in the destroyed world along with the novel’s main character, ‘Yoo Jung-hyuk’, and his colleagues.



The released character posters capture the charm of the characters with strong personalities, drawing attention with the perfect synchronization and overwhelming presence of the actors.First, the intense gaze of ‘Kim Dok-ja’ (Ahn Hyo-seop), the only reader of the novel serialized for over 10 years, catches the eye.’Kim Dok-ja’ draws curiosity about how he will utilize the development of the novel that only he knows through the line, “I am the only reader who knows the ending of this world.” The line, “Why did the world become like this?” by ‘Yoo Joong-hyuk’ (Lee Min-ho), the main character of the novel serialized for over 10 years, further heightens the anticipation for how the world in the novel that has become reality will unfold on the screen.’Yoo Sang-ah’ (Chae Soo-bin), a colleague who encountered the moment when the novel became reality with ‘Kim Dok-ja’, cannot hide her bewilderment, saying, “Do we have to fight like this every day here?” The world in the novel that unfolded before her eyes like a lie, the bewilderment was short-lived, and soon, in order to survive, she and ‘the reader’ began to fight against enemies they had never imagined.Kim Dokja’s colleague Lee Hyun-seong(Shin Seung-ho), who has strong power, wonders, “How do you know all that?” but gradually comes to trust ‘Dokja’ and becomes a strong shield for ‘Dokja’ and his group.Kim Dokja’s colleague Jeong Hee-won(Nana), who fights for justice, also has an unusual expression.She looks at someone with intense eyes, saying, “There’s still one left.The one who gave up being human.” This makes us anticipate what she’s been through and how she’ll deal with it in the future.High school student Lee Ji-hye(Jisoo), who calls Yoo Joong-hyeok her master and follows him, appears in front of ‘Dokja’ and says, “In this world, only the strong survive.” It makes us curious about the story of ‘Ji-hye’, who has a cold face that makes it difficult to read her emotions.Lee Gil-yeong(Kwon Eun-seong), a boy who communicates with insects and accompanies ‘Dokja’ and his group on their journey, also shows off his cute presence.You can also look forward to the unexpected performance of Gil-young, who bravely shouts, “I want to fight monsters too.”



The released teaser trailer draws attention with its fresh worldview and unmissable plot development.An ordinary office worker, Kim Dok-ja, suddenly encounters a moment when the world of a novel becomes reality on the subway on his way home from work.When he hears the announcement that the paid service will start from this time, he immediately realizes what has happened to him and says, “Isn’t it just like the beginning of that novel?” Then, out of nowhere, a goblin, Bi-hyung, appears and says, “All humans will be given a scenario.Kill at least one living being,” and the subway is engulfed in chaos.The ordinary world has disappeared, and a completely different world unfolds where you have to kill and kill to survive.In a world where the novels that I loved and only knew about have become reality, ‘Kim Dok-ja’ and the main character of the novel ‘Yoo Jung-hyeok’ as well as their real-life colleagues ‘Yoo Sang-ah’, ‘Lee Hyeon-seong’, ‘Jeong Hee-won’, ‘Lee Ji-hye’, and ‘Lee Gil-yeong’ will be able to survive together by utilizing the developments that only they know.Expectations are growing for the unique story of ‘Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint ‘.

The movie’ Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint’, which will dominate theaters this summer with its fresh setting and overwhelming visuals, will be available in theaters nationwide in July.
