About Sunset in My Hometown
On the day that underground rapper Hak-soo fails his 7th audition, he receives a call from his hometown that his father is in the hospital. But he finds out that it was his father's plot to bring him to Byeon-san. To top it all, he is suspected as a phishing scam criminal and locked up in this small, boring suburb.
Directed by Lee Joon-ik, Sunset in My Hometown leans on a strong ensemble — Park Jeong-min, Kim Go-eun, Jang Hang-seon — 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 2018.
