Based on the popular web novel of the same name, the film follows the extraordinary journey of Kim Dok Ja (Ahn Hyo Seop), an ordinary man who finds himself thrust into the very world of the fantasy novel he once read. Armed with the unique advantage of knowing the novel’s plot, Kim Dok Ja embarks on a quest to prevent the impending apocalypse and save the world from its foretold end.
The trailer opens with a striking scene: Kim Dok Ja is seen reading a line from the first chapter of the novel—“The subway stopped in the middle of Dongho Bridge.” In a mesmerizing twist, the words on the page come to life as the subway he is riding halts exactly as described, prompting a chilling realization: “This is the same as the start of that novel.” The tension escalates when the bridge collapses, setting the stage for a dramatic confrontation. Amid the chaos, Kim Dok Ja encounters Yoo Joong Hyuk (Lee Min Ho), a character who was once confined to the pages of fiction. Their encounter is charged with intrigue as Yoo Joong Hyuk, with a hint of mystery, demands, “What are you?”
The action-packed trailer offers tantalizing glimpses of an impressive ensemble cast, including Chae Soo Bin, Shin Seung Ho, Nana, and BLACKPINK’s Jisoo, each adding to the film’s dynamic energy. Complementing the trailer, the new poster boldly proclaims, “The world inside the novel becomes reality,” encapsulating the film’s central theme of blurring the boundaries between fiction and life.
With its official theatrical release slated for July 2025, “Omniscient Reader” promises a visually stunning, thought-provoking, and adrenaline-fueled cinematic experience. Fans of the original web novel and new viewers alike can look forward to an epic tale of destiny, survival, and the power of imagination as reality itself begins to rewrite the rules.
