“What’s the meaning of an ending with one survivor?” Blue Fox Entertainment has unveiled their official US trailers for an epic Korean action adventure movie called Omniscient Reader: The Prophecy. It’s made by the same Korean filmmaker who also made The Great Flood movie out in December later this year. Omniscient Reader is adapted from a famous web novel, written by a Korean author duo writing under the pen name “singNsong”. It was originally a big hit in Korea back in 2019. Combining epic high-stakes action with mind-bending fantasy, the movie promises to be a cinematic spectacle that will captivate both long-time fans of the webtoon & newcomers alike. When the apocalyptic world depicted in a serial novel suddenly becomes reality, ordinary Kim Dok-ja – the only person who knows how the novel ends – must set out on a treacherous journey with his companions and the novel’s omnipotent hero, Yu Jung-hyeok, to survive and save the day. Starring Ahn Hyo-seop & Lee Min-ho, along with Chae Soo-bin, Shin Seung-ho, Nana, Jisoo, and Kwon Eun-seong. This looks like a big, cheesy Hollywood movie with some sketchy VFX – as they battle creatures of all sizes, malevolent forces, and more mayhem all trying to write their down destiny.

Kim Dok-ja (Ahn Hyo-seop), an ordinary man in his 20s, is the only reader of an obscure web novel titled “Ways to Survive the Apocalypse”. Having started reading in school, after 10 years of serialization the novel’s conclusion is finally published, and Kim, not liking the ending, writes an angry letter to the author, calling it “the worst novel ever”. After sending the letter, the apocalyptic world of the novel suddenly becomes reality, and the novel’s omnipotent hero Yu Jung-hyeok (Lee Min-ho) appears before Kim. As the only person who knows how to survive in this world, Kim and his companions rescue Yu Jung-hyeok and strive to save the world by writing his own, new ending. Omniscient Reader: The Prophecy, also known as 전지적 독자 시점 in Korean, is directed by Korean filmmaker Kim Byung-woo, director of the films Written, The Terror Live, Take Point, and the “Reborn” series previously, as well as the upcoming The Great Flood movie. The screenplay is written by Kim Byung-woo & Lee Jung-min; based on the web novel by singNsong (aka Sing Shong). Produced by Realties Pictures & Won Dong-yeon. Capelight & Blue Fox debut Omniscient Reader: The Prophecy direct-to-VOD in the US starting November 4th, 2025 this fall. Who’s interested?
