In the photos, Lee shows off masculinity and charisma, seizing the fans’ hearts. Wearing a leather jacket and old-fashioned jeans, the actor is standing in front of a cigarette store, a common scene in the 1970s.

“The movie will captivate the viewers with its realistic depiction of 1970s’ fashion, scenery and every other small detail,” a spokesperson for the movie production team was quoted as saying

The upcoming noir film is about two men’s friendship, betrayal and lust for money and power in the Gangnam district in the 1970s, when the region had a real estate investment boom.

Lee plays the role of Jong-dae while Kim appears as Yong-ki. The two characters grow up together in an orphanage and get involved in the lives of gangsters.

The movie is slated to hit theaters on Jan. 21.
