The well-made animation 'David,' which has garnered attention for actor Park Bo-gum's voice acting, has revealed three special common points with the box office hit 'King of Kings,' which caused a global cinema phenomenon.

The film 'David,' set to release on July 10, tells the story of an ordinary Mokdong David who comes face to face with the destiny of a king, beginning with his mother's song and leading to a confrontation with Goliath, the giant feared by the world.

#A timeless story full of empathy and moving emotion! 'Jesus,' who embraced adversity with love, VS 'David,' who faced the world with courage and faith

The first common point is the power of a story that moves the hearts of audiences. While 'King of Kings' warmly and movingly depicted the life of 'Jesus,' who practiced love and sacrifice amidst numerous adversities and hardships, delivering a deep resonance, 'David' portrays the process of an ordinary Mokdong boy growing into a great king without losing courage and conviction in the face of immense trials. In particular, while 'King of Kings' attracted attention by beautifully animating scenes long imagined, such as the miracle of walking on the Sea of Galilee and the entry into Jerusalem, 'David' captures the epic journey to becoming a king, including the confrontation between 'David' and 'Goliath,' one of the most famous underdog stories in history, with overwhelming scale. Both works transcend their religious backgrounds, conveying universal values of choice in the face of fear, courage, and hope, thereby forming a broad consensus.

#Voice acting that moves the heart, created by Korea's representative artists! Lee Byung-hun, Jin Seon-gyu, Lee Ha-neui VS Park Bo-gum, Jang Chi-yeon, Jang Kwang

The second common point is the voice acting of Korea's representative artists who breathed life into the characters. While 'King of Kings' delivered deep immersion with a historic casting including Lee Byung-hun, Jin Seon-gyu, and Lee Ha-neui, 'David' features a high-quality dubbing ensemble with actors Park Bo-gum, musical theater actress Jang Chi-yeon, voice actor and actor Jang Kwang, as well as veteran voice actors Song Jun-seok and Si Young-jun. Park Bo-gum's delicate expression of 'David's' purity and strength, Jang Chi-yeon's portrayal of warm maternal love, and Jang Kwang's voice, which adds weight to the film with his profound acting skills, will convey the characters' emotions more richly and deliver unforgettable moving moments.

#A movie that the whole family can enjoy! A father and son's time travel VS a mother and son's special faith

The final common point is a warm family story that connects generations. While 'King of Kings' depicted love and understanding between family members through the special time travel of author 'Charles Dickens' and his youngest son 'Walter,' 'David' focuses on the deep love of the mother 'Nitzbeth,' who believes in and supports the fate of an ordinary boy. In particular, 'David's' appearance of rising again through his mother's song and love amidst trials and setbacks will convey deep empathy to the parent generation and warm comfort to the children's generation, promising to deliver moving experiences that the whole family can enjoy together.

As such, the film <David>, which continues the box office formula shown by <King of Kings>, is a work that tells the story of an ordinary Mokdong David coming face to face with the destiny of a king, beginning with his mother's song and leading to a confrontation with Goliath, the giant feared by the world, and is scheduled to meet audiences in theaters nationwide on July 10 (Fri).
