Actor Kwon Sang-woo is set to kick off 2026 with a comedy, promising big laughs for moviegoers.

On the 15th, distributor Lotte Entertainment unveiled two main posters for the film HEARTMAN. Slated to open in January next year, HEARTMAN is a comedy that follows Seung-min (played by Kwon Sang-woo), a man who returns and reunites with his first love, only to find himself entangled in a secret he absolutely cannot reveal. The film is drawing buzz for reuniting director Choi Won-sub—well-known for the Hitman series—with Kwon Sang-woo.

The newly released posters spotlight the distinctive ensemble of four leads—Kwon Sang-woo, Moon Chae-won, Park Ji-hwan, and Pyo Ji-hoon—instantly grabbing attention. The tagline, "Why is love coming back now?" reflects Seung-min's confusion as he hides his secret, teasing the hilariously awkward situations the film will unleash.

Poised to ring in the 2026 New Year with feel-good laughs, HEARTMAN hits theaters nationwide on January 14.
