Yeon Sang-ho‘s (Train to Busan) The Ugly will be released on Digital on March 10 via Well Go USA. Blu-ray and DVD will follow May 26 exclusively on Amazon.

Based on Yeon’s 2018 graphic novel Face, the film stars Park Jeong-min (Decision to Leave) and Kwon Hae-hyo (Peninsula).

It follows Im Yeong-gyu, a master artisan who has been hand-carving beautiful, engraved seals despite having been born blind. One day, his son Dong-hwan receives a call from the police, informing them that the skeletal remains of Young-hee, their wife and mother, have been found after 40 years.

Determined to find the truth of her disappearance, Dong-hwan begins investigating her death with Su-jin, a producer who has been filming a documentary about Yeong-gyu. Through the memories of those who worked with his mother at a garment factory, Dong-hwan comes face-to-face with the long-hidden truth.

Shin Hyeon-bin, Im Sung-jae, and Han Ji-hyeon (“Hellbound”) round out the cast.

Yeon produces alongside Wow Point, with whom he previously collaborated on “Parasyte: The Grey” and Revelations.
