Director’s Note and Synopsis

“Compared to ordinary time bombs shown in other movies, ‘Sound-responsive Bomb’ in DECIBEL has different features. Once it reaches a certain noise threshold, the remaining time to the explosion will drop by half. When it happens in the place like a football stadium or a waterpark, where the big noise can be generated from anywhere, the protagonist cannot control the noise, being driven into extremity, so I thought it will give more tension to the movie.”

Director Hwang In-ho

Synopsis

Former Lieutenant Commander Do-yeong (Kim Rae-won) suffers from PTSD caused by a harrowing submarine accident that claimed the lives of his colleagues. Despite being revered as a national hero, he carries guilt and is tormented by his estrangement from his family.

One day, Do-yeong receives a cryptic phone call from a mysterious person, threatening to blow up a football stadium with improvised explosives triggered by a certain decibel. Just in time, Do-yeong saves innocent lives, but the terrorist remains determined to cause more casualties, including targeting Do-yeong’s wife and daughter. Now he must race against the clock to track the terrorist down and save his family as well as other people. Amid this impossible task, the unforeseen consequences of a secret he buried in the depths of the sea resurface.

Decibel Director and Cast

Director Hwang In-ho

The director Hwang In-ho, who has high-quality directing skills regardless of genre, and who shows excellence in character-driven storytelling, introduces this Korean movie as “an action movie in which characters are important, and audiences can have fun following those characters” with various attractions & overwhelming tensions. To immerse people in the situation that everything with sound can trigger the bomb, the composition of the story was the most important to show a cat-and-mouse game between the two main characters, ‘the target of the bomb’ and ‘the bomb designer.’

“I didn’t even notice how many hours had passed, because it was so speedy and fun.”

Kim Rae-won

He plays the ‘former Navy Commander targeted by terrorism’ who receives a mysterious phone call from the bomb designer and becomes embroiled in a terrorist plot. He gets a warning of terrorism without knowing the reason or where the target place is, and his choice and action determine whether the bomb explodes or not. However, under the strict surveillance of the terrorist (the bomb designer), he cannot notify the situation to anyone. His solitary struggle to prevent the terrorist bomb attack across the city will make the audiences feel the extreme tension and thrill.

As our protagonist wants to stop the bombing, he has no choice but to follow the orders of the bomber.
