MANILA, Philippines — Streaming platform Disney+ has confirmed an April 29 release date for the crime thriller series "Gold Land" starring Park Bo-young and Kim Sung-cheol.

"Gold Land" is the streaming series debut of screenwriter Hwang Jo-yoon, best known for co-writing the movies "Oldboy" and "Memoir of a Murderer."

The show stars Bo-young as Hee-ju, a young small town woman whose life changes for the better upon dating a successful pilot.

"Finally escaping her past and managing to hold down a reputable job at a nearby airport, things seem to be going well for Hee-ju until her boyfriend calls her pleading for help," goes the synopsis.

"Within days, Hee-ju will find herself on the run with a ton of gold bars, hurtling towards the one place she swore she'd never return."
