30 Days: Cast, plot, release date, and all you need to know

The much-anticipated upcoming Korean rom-com film, 30 Days (Korean title: 30일), is a hilarious ride of a married couple as they lose their memory upon an accident and straddle the line between their once-happy married life and a looming divorce.

The leads - an intelligent lawyer named No Jeong-yol and a rising film producer Hong Na-ra - will be played by Kang Ha-neul and Jung So-min respectively. Additionally, veteran actor Kim Sun-young will portray No Jeong-yol's mother's character in the film.

On August 24, the movie's distributor, Mindmark, rolled out pictures and teaser for the film. The teaser perfectly captures the couple's initial nuptial bliss and the chaotic turn their lives take after marriage, showing the duo bickering and fighting childishly.

Meanwhile, the posters show them smiling and hopeful for their oncoming divorce.

This film will mark the re-union of Kang Ha-neul and Jung So-min, after fans last saw them co-starring in the 2015 comedy-drama film, Twenty.
