Get ready to enter a world where fiction becomes fate. The highly anticipated fantasy action film Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint, directed by Kim Byung-woo, has officially locked in its nationwide release for July 23. Alongside this announcement, the film has unveiled a jaw-dropping main trailer and poster that tease a rich, immersive universe like no other.
Based on the wildly popular web novel, Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint tells the gripping story of Kim Dok-ja, an ordinary man—and the sole reader—of a long-running serialized novel that suddenly comes to life. As the narrative he knows so well begins to unfold in the real world, Kim must team up with Yoo Jung-hyeok, the novel’s main character, and a band of unlikely allies to survive apocalyptic chaos and rewrite fate itself.
An Epic Story Brought to Life
The newly released main poster oozes cinematic scale. Front and center, Ahn Hyo-seop (as Kim Dok-ja) and Lee Min-ho (as Yoo Jung-hyeok) stare resolutely ahead, pulling viewers into the story’s heart-stopping universe. Behind them, a stellar supporting cast—Chae Soo-bin, Shin Seung-ho, Nana, Jisoo, and Kwon Eun-seong—look out through the “scenario window,” hinting at the mind-bending narrative about to unfold.
The tagline, “The novel only I know has become reality,” perfectly captures the premise’s unique twist: one man’s knowledge of the ending might be the only hope for survival.
Trailer Teases High-Stakes Action and Deep Emotion
The main trailer opens with a line that hits hard:
“The story that was my everything… has become reality.”
