Well Go USA Entertainment has confirmed the official release dates for THE UGLY, the haunting new drama from acclaimed filmmaker Yeon Sang‑ho, known for global hits Train to Busan and Peninsula. The film will debut on Digital on March 10, followed by an exclusive Blu‑ray™ and DVD release on Amazon on May 26.

Starring Park Jeong‑min, Kwon Hae‑hyo, Shin Hyun‑been, Im Seong‑jae, and newcomer Han Ji‑hyeon, THE UGLY follows a documentary filmmaker who receives a life‑altering call: his missing mother’s remains have been found forty years after her disappearance. His search for answers pulls him into a harrowing journey through buried family secrets, generational trauma, and long‑unspoken guilt.

After premiering at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival, the film earned 10 Blue Dragon Award nominations, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, and multiple supporting performance nods — a testament to Yeon’s gripping storytelling and the cast’s powerful performances.
