Hope (2026)
Hope releases in the UK on 25 Sept 2026. A streaming release date will be listed here as soon as it's announced.
The verdict
Hope is one of the more anticipated Korean releases on the calendar. At 157 minutes it's a long sit, so save it for when you've got the evening. It releases 2026-09-25; mark your calendar if it's on your list.
Should you spend 2h 37m on it?
2h 37m of Korean science fiction with mystery threaded through, not one for younger kids. A little over the usual, so start it earlier than you think.
Story
In the remote South Korean village of Hope Harbor, police chief Bum-seok and officer Sung-ae are called to investigate a mysterious creature wreaking havoc on the community. But all is not as it seems, and perceptions can be misleading. What begins as ignorance plants the seed of disaster, escalating through human conflict into a tragedy of cosmic proportions.
