In Middle America, a small-town doctor learns a frightening truth about the fate of his community…

HWANG Sung Yeon, sitting in a packed coffee shop on the campus of his university, cuts an easy figure on a humid Seoul day. The Ph.D. student from the Center for RNA Research sips on an iced coffee and talks easily about his choice of movie, the 1950's thriller/ horror classic, Invasion of the Body Snatchers. "Initially, I chose the movie because I love classics and it takes place at a particularly tense time in history - during the Cold War between the US and the USSR. I think the movie accurately reflects the feeling and tense mood of that time."
