The upcoming K-movie Target weaves a suspenseful thriller that delves into the strange events that unfold in the ordinary life of Soo Hyun, who unwittingly becomes a target of crime after buying a second-hand washing machine.
The recently-released trailer portrays Soo Hyun (Shin Hye Sun) being pursued by a tenacious criminal, and the detectives, all in a relentless quest, strive to catch him.
After having exposed the swindler on an online second-hand goods site, Soo Hyun finds herself caught in a web of danger, subsequently receiving a warning message from him. As the criminal starts closing in, she finds herself under threat, her every move surveilled.
Meanwhile, Detective Joo (Kim Sung Kyun), stumbling upon a dead body at the residence of an online seller while tracing the criminal's footsteps, senses an impending tragedy and teams up with Detective Na (Kang Tae Oh) to launch a comprehensive inquiry.
The title cards read, "Trading with a murderer; you could be the next target".
The trailer heads towards the conclusion with scenes portraying Soo Hyun facing life-threatening circumstances, the detectives closing up on the criminal's tracks, and the mysterious criminal coming after Soo Hyun relentlessly.
