Thanks to our wonderful South Korean agents Hi-Five, Score supplies the soundtrack to the new movie trailer for the Korean version of ‘Midnight Sun’, featuring the super catchy pop track ‘Fortune Cookie’ from Jeremy Gillam & Sam Doniger’s recent Score album ‘Perfect Pop’.
Midnight Sun is a 2025 South Korean film starring Jung Ji-so and Cha Hak-yeon, directed by Cho Young-jun. The story follows a girl with a rare sun allergy who falls in love with a boy she meets at night, leading to a romance where she must hide her condition from him. The movie’s original Korean title is Taeyangui Norae (The Sun’s Song)
Mi-sol(JUNG Ji-so), who has the XP disease, cannot be exposed to sunlight due to her medical condition. She always stays home in order to avoid sunlight, and finds joy in singing. One day, Mi-sol’s life shifts as she falls in love with a boy outside of her window, Min-jun(CHA Hak-yeon), who runs a fruit truck in the neighborhood. Despite the great obstacle of her disease, they manage to grow their romance and dream together of their future. Min-jun’s support for Mi-sol’s dream helps her work up the courage to sing for a bigger audience.
