South Korea have gradually been making their way through big genre movie scenarios and so it was only a matter of…TIME…(teehee) before they offered up a time travel film. In 11 A.M. a successful time travel experiment takes place, only for the scientists who travelled to return to their lab to find it destroyed and people missing. It certainly has a dark tone to it, which is surprising from director Kim Hyun Seok who has mostly delivered romantic comedies. Like many Korean trailers it’s short but tantalising.
Here’s the official plot synopsis from CJ Entertainment:
In the not-so distant future, researchers at a deep-sea laboratory have finally succeeded in inventing a time machine. Heavily burdened by financial stress, the head-researcher Woo-Seok is promised more funding from a mega-corporation, if he successfully completes a test flight. Ji-wan tries to stop his colleague and lover, Young-Eun from going on the dangerous flight, but Woo-Seok and Young-eun carry out the mission and travel to 11A.M. the next day. They arrive at the planned time only to find out the base on the verge of collapse. All the researchers are gone and someone is out to kill them. Woo-Seok begins the tedious process of piecing together what happened in the 24 hours….
We’re still waiting on international release date details, but it will premiere in South Korea in November. It stars Jeong Jae Yeong, Kim Ok Bin, and Daniel Choi.
