Project Wolf Hunting is a 2022 South Korean sci-fi action thriller film directed by Kim Hong-sun, starring Seo In-guk and Jang Dong-yoon. The films depicts a story that takes place on a cargo ship used to transport dangerous criminals from Manila, Philippines to Busan, South Korea.

It follows the characters as they embark on a mission to bring criminals from the Pacific back to Korea but encounter deadly obstacles along the way.

It premiered at 2022 Toronto International Film Festival on September 16, 2022, and is scheduled to be released on September 21, 2022.

“Project Wolf Hunting” opens with Korean police officers on a mission to bring heinous criminals to South Korea from the Philippines via a ship.

Looking for an opportunity to escape are Jong-du (Seo In-guk), a cold-blooded killer, and Do-il (Jang Dong-yoon) who has an Interpol red notice on him.

Meanwhile, a mysterious presence created in a secret lab onboard puts everyone's lives at risk.

Two different news inspired the film, according to the director: news about Korean criminals extradited from the Philippines in 2017 and news about the Imperial Japanese Army’s infamous medical research unit 731 having a base in the Philippines.

“I mashed up two different stories and created ‘Project Wolf Hunting,'” the director said during a press conference at CGV Yongsan.
