Emergency Act 19 (긴급조치19호)
Feb 2nd
Synopsis:
To some people, Emergency Measure 19 is no doubt a dream come true. It has brought almost all the popular idols in Korea together. Try to imagine, Kangta, FinKL, ShinHwa, Click-B, Baby Vox, Ha Ri-Su, and many more are all in one single film! If you are a K-Pop fan, merely the cast list is already the biggest allurement for you to get the film.
The story of this film is quite illogical and whimsical. The Korean government is afraid that pop singers and their songs are having too much political influence, that the chief secretary has decided to pass a new law called “emergency measure 19″ in which every pop singer in the country is to be arrested and jailed.
