Overview: Byung-Gu is an ordinary young man. He believes that all of the earth’s social ills are the result of evil doings of aliens. That’s why he knows that, unless he can meet the prince from Andromeda before the total lunar eclipse, planet Earth will be destroyed. However, to meet the prince, he must find an extraterrestrial representative living on earth. So he kidnaps the most logical suspect; the boss of a multinational company and thus begins a battle of wills between himself, who’s trying to uncover the secret alien plot to destroy Earth, and the boss, who thinks Byung-Gu is nuts and tries desperately to escape. With only four hours until the lunar eclipse, will time run out for planet Earth? Can Byung-Gu single-handedly save the green planet? Possibly the only film that can be said to be a combination of Close Encounters of the Third Kind and Red Dragon…
