Trailer for Korean Movie Shot at Briarcliff High Relased

A trailer for the movie "Papa," partly shot at the defunct high school in October, was released. The movie opens in South Korean in January.

Oh, boy, this is exciting. Remember two months ago when we reported that a South Korean movie called Papa was on North Druid Hills Road?

I honestly thought I'd never hear or see anything about it again, but thanks to the Georgia film office's Facebook page, the recently released trailer for this baby popped up on my Facebook news feed.

It's a comedy. Despite the fact that it almost looks like a comically unintentional South Korean adaptation of The Blind Side, it's actually got quite the plot, according to HanCinema, a website dedicated to South Korean film. A synopsis from the site:

The storyline is about a manager who pushes a young female talent to enter a reality TV show contest in the U.S. Some background information involves the manager having to get married to attain a legal visa and ends up having to raise six children when his wife dies.

So, what do you guys think? Anyone looking forward to renting this thing? Somehow I doubt it'll ever stream on Netflix but who knows.
