- Netflix Unveils 'Black Knight' Teaser Trailer and Poster Featuring Kim Woo-bin 목차
Netflix has unveiled a gripping teaser trailer and the third teaser poster for their highly anticipated series 'Black Knight,' featuring the charismatic Kim Woo-bin. The series is set in a dystopian future where extreme air pollution plagues the Korean peninsula, making it impossible for people to survive without oxygen supplies.
'Black Knight' follows the story of legendary courier driver 5-8 (played by Kim Woo-bin) and refugee April as they confront the powerful Cheonmyeong Group in this harsh new world. The teaser poster shows 5-8 wearing a mask in the midst of a sandstorm, with freckles signifying the brutal impact of the desert environment. Pursuers chasing his truck are also visible, suggesting the obstacles 5-8 will encounter while attempting to survive and deliver hope.
In the teaser trailer, 5-8 describes the role of a courier driver, stressing the need to be stronger than anyone else to protect their precious cargo from hunters desperate for oxygen and daily necessities. The once-familiar city of Seoul is now unrecognizable, submerged under a layer of sand. The trailer further highlights the bizarre and ironic reality of oxygen, once available to all, now being distributed via QR codes assigned to individuals' hands. Viewers are given a glimpse of advanced facilities in stark contrast to the relentless sandstorm outside, sparking curiosity about the expansive world of 'Black Knight.'
Director Cho Eui-seok shared his enthusiasm for directing the series, stating, "The setting was very unique. The most helpful setting for surviving humanity, carrying oxygen and daily necessities through the hunter's attack, not the common courier driver, was attractive." He also expressed his fascination with the existence of a courier driver who people both admire and dream of in such a world.
Fans are eagerly awaiting the thrilling and action-packed story of 'Black Knight,' set to premiere exclusively on Netflix on May 12th. With its unique premise and talented cast, the series promises to be a captivating addition to the streaming giant's lineup.
