Dream (드림)is an upcoming South Korean sports comedy film written and directed by Lee Byeong-heon, who previously created Extreme Job in 2019. Starring Park Seo-joon and IU aka Lee Ji-eun in the lead role, the plot of the movie surrounds a football player who has to take the hard task of coaching a football team consisting of homeless people.
The minute-long trailer gives us a general overview of what the movie will be about. The clip opens with Seo-joon, as football player Hong-dae, arriving at a field to coach a football team of out-of-shape men for an upcoming tournament. The team consists of homeless players who will be competing in the Homeless World Cup.
Lee Ji-eun also appears as Lee So-min, an aspiring director who will be shooting a documentary about the whole process. The men find difficulty in following orders as they have never been trained by a professional before, let alone participate in a tournament. On the other hand, Hong-dae and So-min also get off on the wrong foot as they start to argue about the most trivial things. The fights and disagreements lead to hilarious moments resulting in a full-blown laughter fest.
The plot of the movie will revolve around Yoon Hong-dae, a football player who gets involved in a quagmire, due to which he is sent to coach a team of homeless people as a disciplinary action. It is his job to train the group of misfits, and along the way, he develops a closer relationship with them. Additionally, his relationship with So-min will also be explored in the movie and can culminate in a romantic connection.
Other supporting and recurring casts of the movie include Kim Jong-soo, Ko Chang-seok, Lee Hyun-woo, Baek Ji-won, Hong Ahn-pyo, Jung Seung-gil and more. Kang Ha-neul will be making a special appearance. Tae-seong Kim gives the music, and Oktober Cinema Co. Ltd. produces it. The film was announced back in 2020, and due to Covid-19, filming was delayed multiple times. Moreover, the movie is shot at multiple international locations like Hungary and Colombia.
