‘Gangwon-do’ consists of two irregularly intersecting stories happening in winter, in Gangwon province. A young man who is about to join the military travels from Cheolwon to Sokcho in search of his father. In the meantime, a woman who has escaped from her oppressive husband returns to her home village with the help of a kind stranger. Stories of these two characters, traveling in the opposite direction within the same spaces, unfold mysteriously.
Directed by Park Ki-yong, Gangwon-do leans on a strong ensemble — Kim Sung-hyun, Hwang Hun-joong, Kim Ja-yeon — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2021.
