The World of Love arrives in UK cinemas from Friday 27 November 2026 via Bulldog Film Distribution. Yoon Ga-eun writes and directs the South Korean drama about Jooin, a 17-year-old student whose angry outburst triggers a wave of anonymous notes that unsettle her quiet life. Seo Su-bin stars, with Jang Hyae-jin, Kim Jeong-sik and Kang Chae-yun.

London Korean Links notes a limited theatrical window from 27 November, with an LKFF preview at the ICA on Tuesday 10 November and a Foyle Film Festival screening in Derry-Londonderry on Tuesday 24 November. The film played the London Film Festival last year and was an Official Selection in TIFF 50's Platform programme.

Bulldog's page is the place for venue updates as the limited run firms up. Ticket prices will vary by cinema; London Korean Links floated a rough £12 guide.

For anyone who missed both festival plays, this is the first proper UK cinema chance.

Quiet film, loud notes. Worth a seat either way.
