The main poster for the movie "Sugar," scheduled to be released in January next year, has been unveiled. This film marks actress Choi Ji-woo's return to the screen after three years, drawing attention to her warm maternal love. Choi Ji-woo is a mother in real life, which has heightened interest in her emotional portrayal.
The main poster for "Sugar," released on the 29th, is directed by Choi Chul-chun and stars Choi Ji-woo, Min Jin-woong, Go Dong-ha, and Kim Sun-young. "Sugar" is a human drama based on a true story about Mira (Choi Ji-woo), a mother who overcomes legal and regulatory barriers to create medical devices herself for her young son diagnosed with type 1 diabetes.
The tagline on the poster, "The walls built by the world, a mother makes the path," succinctly conveys the film's theme. In the poster, Mira and her son Dong-myeong (Go Dong-ha) are seen smiling brightly at each other, capturing the audience's attention. Especially, Mira's loving gaze at her son dressed in a baseball uniform vividly expresses her determined will and warm maternal love to protect her child fighting illness.
Set against the reality where bringing in essential medical devices for treatment is illegal, the film depicts Mira's journey of not giving up and creating the necessary devices herself to open the path her son needs. This great journey of a mother is expected to deeply move the audience. The bright smiles of the two in the poster hint at the precious daily life they have protected through the desperate battle revealed in the trailer.
"Sugar" is Choi Ji-woo's comeback film after three years since "New Normal," released in 2023, raising high expectations for her return. The movie is scheduled to premiere in theaters on January 21, 2026. Choi Ji-woo was born in 1975 and is currently 50 years old. She married in 2018 and has one daughter.
This film "Sugar" deals with themes of maternal love and growth, promising to deliver a touching message to the audience.
