Song Hye Kyo, Jeon Yeo Been remain steadfast in the face of powerful evil in 'Dark Nuns'

The upcoming horror K-movie Dark Nuns has unveiled its trailer.

Dark Nuns follows the story of people who engage in a forbidden ritual to save a boy possessed by a powerful evil spirit. It is the second installment of The Priests and stars Song Hye Kyo, Jeon Yeo Been, Lee Jin Wook, Heo Joon Ho, and Moon Woo Jin.

The newly revealed main poster highlights the commanding presence of Sister Junia (Song Hye Kyo), a strong-willed nun with an unyielding temperament. It also draws attention to the determination of the boy Hee Jun, who is trapped by the evil spirit, and the various individuals surrounding him. The tagline, "Ready to go to the forbidden place," hints at the unwavering resolve of the two nuns who risk everything to save Hee Jun. 

Notably, the visuals of Sister Michaela (Jeon Yeo Been), Father Paolo (Lee Jin Wook), and the boy Hee Jun (Moon Woo Jin) on the poster hint at their complex relationships. The contrasting background of blazing flames and a cold ocean further heightens the tension.

The trailer begins with featuring the phrase "By any means necessary," piquing  curiosity about the choices each character will make in the absence of an exorcist priest. Sister Junia, who will stop at nothing to save the boy, along with Sister Michaela, who initially opposes her but eventually resolves to help the boy, remain steadfast in the face of powerful evil. Meanwhile, Father Paolo, a psychiatrist who does not believe in exorcism, adds to the tension as he clashes with the nuns.

The desperate efforts of Sister Junia and Sister Michaela as they deal with the reappearance of the 12 Forms in Korea draw viewers deeper into the narrative.

Dark Nuns will premiere on January 24. Watch the trailer here.
