What To Expect From IU & Park Seo Joon's 'Dream'

Apart from its star-studded cast, "Dream" also boasts a cider-infused narrative that every moviegoer will enjoy this spring!

"Dream" depicts the one great mission of the homeless people which is to bring the trophy home from the Homeless World Cup.

The story will be told through the eyes of a passionless coach, played by Park Seo Joon, and a soulless producing director, played by IU-two clashing personalities who root for the homeless soccer team.

In the work, Yoon Hong Dae (Park Seo Joon) and Lee So Min (IU) will showcase a fantastic chemistry that will create an inimitable dream team to dominate the world cup.

In particular, Kim Jong Soo, Go Chang Suk, Jung Seung Gil, Lee Hyun Woo, Hong Wan Pyo and more join the cast and crew as the reliable players of the soccer team, strengthening the film.

Even more so, viewers are asked to bring their comfort blankets and boxes of tissues as "Dream" will not only deliver comfort and nostalgia, but it will also give fun and emotional twists as it progresses.
