Zhao Lu Si on how she is similar to Duanwu – The Story of Pearl Girl
Fans are counting the days until the release of the upcoming dystopian Netflix K-drama Black Knight, and with the premiere date fast approaching, they can hardly contain their excitement. To further heighten the anticipation, Netflix has released a trailer for the K-drama featuring Kim Woo Bin, Song Seung Heon, Kang Yoo Seok, and Esom.
The trailer begins with a desolate landscape and a dark sky, devoid of any signs of life. Kim Woo Bin (playing the role of Knight 5-8) drives a truck with enemies close behind him. What follows is a clash of vehicles and the firing of bullets with 5-8 emerging victorious. When asked who he is, Kim Woo Bin coolly replies, "A deliveryman".
The following scenes portray the bleak world of 2071, where high levels of air pollution have made survival impossible. Only 1% of the population endured the calamity, and they now depend on parcels - containing necessities - delivered by drivers, known as knights.
Enter Sa Wol (Kang Yoo Seok), an aspirational young man who looks up to 5-8 and dreams of becoming a deliveryman himself. He approaches the knight who - after asking a rhetorical question, "So you want to become a deliveryman?" - tells Sa Wol to prove his worth.
The following scenes show the huge scale, the grandiose sets, and the cutting-edge visual effects, which are a spectacle to behold. Ryu Seok makes his appearance as Song Seung Heon - the heir of the Cheonmyeong Group, which reigns over the world by exploiting oxygen as a weapon.
In an unfair world where the weak are ruled over by the tyrannical powerful, 5-8 stands as the beacon of hope determined to bring justice.
With stunning visuals, high-octane action, and apocalyptic landscapes, fans are in for a treat for an exciting journey into the dystopian world of the K-drama.
