Space Sweepers, the much-anticipated Korean sci-fi thriller starring Song Joong-ki, Kim Tae-ri, Jin Sun-kyu and Yoo Hai-jin, will be premiering on Netflix this February 5th.

Regarded as the first Korean outer space blockbuster, Space Sweepers is set in 2092 where the Earth has become a bleak planet and will soon be uninhabitable. The story revolves around the crew of Spaceship Victory, a cosmic waste management spacecraft that tries to escape the destruction of Earth.

Crewed with a genius space pilot Tae-ho (Song Joong-ki), a mysterious ex-space pirate Captain Jang (Kim Tae-ri), a spaceship engineer Tiger Park (Jin Sun-kyu), and a reprogrammed military robot Bubs (Yoo Hai-jin), Spaceship Victory surpasses all other space sweepers.

After successfully snatching a crashed space shuttle in the latest debris chase, Victory’s crew are surprised to find a 7-year-old girl inside. They realize that she’s the humanlike robot wanted by UTS Space Guards, and decide to demand ransom in exchange. In their quest to earn money, these misfits just might save the world.
