SEOUL, South Korea – Fans were screaming for their favorite Hollywood and South Korean stars as they hit the Seoul Times Square red carpet on Tuesday, June 13, for Netflix’s Okja.
Among the movie’s stars who flew over from the US were Tilda Swinton and Giancarlo Esposito. Korean actors like Steven Yeun and young actress Ahn Seo-Hyun were also in attendance, along with director Bong Joon-Ho (The Host, Snowpiercer).
Produced by Netflix and Brad Pitt’s Plan B Entertainment, Okja follows Korean farmgirl Mija (Ahn Seo-Hyun) as she sets out to save her giant pet pig from slaughter at the hands of a multi-national corporation.
“I just love bringing Okja home to Korea,” Tilda told the crowd after signing autographs and posing for selfies.
