Nena Sep 22 2025 10:03 am Park Hoon is one of the most talented actors in Korea today. Every role he takes is fully transformed, believable, and unforgettable

thrillme Apr 11 2025 9:39 am Great historical tribute film. Little did they know it would take all the way to 1948 to reach the finish line. Full respect to the ones who fought for Korea's independence. Koreans remember you and now more foreigners will know of you. The Stravinsky style track was brilliant during the war scene.

Victoria Jan 12 2025 10:50 pm If you have the chance to see Harbin, it's incredible... what phenomenal performances from the undeniably handsome Hyun Bin, Lee Dong Wook, Jeon Yeo Bin, and the rest of the cast. The cinematography is stunning, definitely worthy of a big screen. I didn't watch Dune, but they filmed with the same kind of camera. Cinematographer Hong Kyung Pyo also worked on Parasite! Harbin was so epic... really exciting but also heavy and sometimes sad. It's based on historic events and it was obviously a rough time. LDW's last scene was so badass, and that scene at the end...wow. Great storytelling!

Suzanne Jan 12 2025 7:06 pm War films aren’t typically my genre—they’re often too violent for my taste—but this one was particularly graphic and realistic, leaving a strong impression. The opening battle scene stood out for its raw and visceral portrayal of hand-to-hand combat, showcasing the brutal humanity of war in a way I hadn’t seen before.

The cinematography was absolutely breathtaking, perfectly complemented by the detailed costumes, makeup, and a hauntingly beautiful score. Among a talented cast, Jo Woo-Jin delivered a performance for the ages. His nuanced facial expressions conveyed a depth of emotion that made his role unforgettable—truly Oscar-worthy.

While the dialogue occasionally veered into over-dramatic territory, with an abundance of whispering, the overall pacing kept the story engaging. The ending was a poignant mix of pain, triumph, and tragedy, leaving a lasting emotional impact.

Beyond the artistry, this film serves as a powerful history lesson, shedding light on the determination, resilience, and ethical character of the Korean people. It also offers valuable insights into the complex history of Korean-Japanese relations, making it as enlightening as it is unforgettable.

Itsmeand Jan 05 2025 2:32 am Hyun Bin is deserving of a significant acting accolade.

A masterwork beyond belief! Every moment was brilliantly performed by the actors, the cinematography was breathtaking, and the chills I got were unreal. There is no CG in the backgrounds or landscapes.Keeping that in mind will likely help you appreciate it more. I believe that you will be able to appreciate the film more if you watch it while following the emotional journeys of the characters, particularly Ahn Jung-geun. The movie seems serene but powerful to me. After seeing it, you will carry with you the lesson that General Ahn Jung-geun wished to get across: we should stay brave and optimistic and take things one step at a time.

Chryslene Nov 18 2024 9:29 pm "Will this also be available to watch in the Philippines?"

Ann Wilson Nov 16 2024 5:30 am From what I observed from YouTube to the reactions of those who were fortunate enough to watch “Harbin” at the Toronto Film Festival, there was a standing ovation for the movie. It is said it will be released for the general public sometime in December this year in South Korea.

Hopefully it will also be released in other countries as well. Hyun bin’s last movie “The Point Men” was released in other countries.

David Oct 20 2024 10:35 am I’m in Seoul right now and this film is showing in major cinemas. Welcome back Hyun Bin!!

Kim Jul 26 2024 11:49 am Where will it released? Netflix, viki, prime?

Kelly Jun 18 2024 3:32 pm Harbin will be at the Toronto International Film Festival, September 2024

Sandra Daniel Feb 02 2024 7:07 pm Hyun Bin is the ultimate actor. He carries any project that he is in. I live in USA and have not been able to watch Harbin but I am searching everyday for a place to watch this. I know it will be fantastic. Hyun Bin in an uniform is something that I watch.

Anita Randolph Sep 15 2023 2:47 pm When will Harbin be released to watch

seritokkie Aug 25 2023 11:41 am I am so excited for this movie, finally my faves in one movie– Hyun Bin, Yeobeen and Dongwook. Looking forward as from the news naver both from HyunBin's article to Dongwook's latest article from his switzerland trip.. It says it will be expected to released by December. Just didn't know if it is 2023 or 2024 but please make it quick, I can patiently wait too. Even if it means taking that long to be release!!!

Sandra Mar 30 2023 2:34 pm It’s plot is spectacular, I’m anxious to see it, when the movie premieres. I addition, there is Huyn-Bin, who is a first-class actor.

Andrea Feb 03 2023 5:53 pm I just took a Korean history course and the person who left the greatest impact on me was An Jung-Geun. I googled him and got info on the novel Harbin, which is what this movie will be based on. I couldn’t be more thrilled, I hope the book is translated to English before the movie comes out.
