A touching story about the power of kindness, “The Miracles of the Namiya General Store” follows three young men on the run from a poorly executed crime. Seeking refuge in a long-abandoned store once known for its advice-giving owner, the trio begin receiving letters from strangers looking for help. But with each response they pen, they begin to discover their messages are somehow reaching recipients living decades in the past.
“The Miracles of the Namiya General Store” stars Ryu Seung-ryong (“Moving,” “Low Life”) as the store owner — Go Min-joong; Kim Hye-yoon (“Lovely Runner”), Moon Sang-min (“Pavane”), and Lee Chae-min (“Bon Appetit, Your Majesty”) as those impacted by the advice sent from the store, and Kang You-seok (“Resident Playbook”), Park Jung-woo (“20th Century Girl”), and Kim Seong-jeong (“The Woodcutter and the Fairy”) as the three men on the run.
The story is adapted for the screen and directed by Park Young-ju (“Citizen of a Kind”) and is produced by The LAMP Ltd. (“A Taxi Driver”).
