Project Wolf Hunting begins with a mass return of Korean criminals captured in the Philippines. As they’re being led through Seoul airport somebody with a grudge against one of them detonates a suicide bomb killing himself, his target, and everyone else in the vicinity. To avoid a repeat of this, the next group is to be transported on the Frontier Titan, a specially fitted out cargo ship and delivered to a pier in Busan harbour to which the public doesn’t have access. I guess simply flying them into a military base never crossed anyone’s mind.
The Frontier Titan leaves Manilla with forty-seven criminals, twenty guards, two medics, and the ship’s crew. At least that’s what they think they’re leaving with because...

The Netflix and tvN K-drama Alchemy of Souls switched their female leads from Jung So-min to Go Yoon-jung.

Actor Lee Jae-wook starred as Jang Uk alongside Go for Alchemy of Souls Season 2. Their on-screen chemistry was impeccable, and the actor had blush-worthy praise for his co-star.

Alchemy of Souls was one of 2022’s biggest fantasy K-dramas. It premiered a second season in December and went well into 2023. The first season of Alchemy of Souls developed a heartwarming romance between Jang Uk (Lee Jae-wook) and his master, Mu-deok (Jung So-min). But the romance changed in Alchemy of Souls Season 2 as actor Go Youn-jung reprised her role as Nak-su.

Plot: Criminals from South Korea take control of the cargo ship that’s taking them back home from the Philippines… and then the genetic experiment that’s also on board gets loose. A bloodbath ensues.
Review: Writer/director Kim Hong-seon’s movie Project Wolf Hunting doesn’t have a great title – and the filmmakers were clearly aware of that, because when a character in the movie sees a folder with “Project Wolf Hunting” on it, their response is, “How tacky.” Apparently the literal translation of the South Korean production’s title in its home country would be Project Wolf Hunt or simply Wolf Hunt, both of which at least sound better than the English title the movie was given. That “ing” at the end does make a difference. But as cheesy as Project Wolf Hunting sounds, it’s a title we’re probably going to hear referenced quite often going forward,...
