And the Dream That Mattered

An ambitious Asian actor who's well on his way to Hollywood success returns home to Korea and soon discovers that even while reconnecting with family and loved ones, his creative journey ahead is even more lonely and difficult than he could have ever imagined.

Directed by Byun Joo-hyun, Aditya J. Patwardhan, And the Dream That Mattered leans on a strong ensemble — Kim Jong-man, Hyejeong Choi, Byun Joo-hyun — 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 2022.
