SAMG Entertainment to Release "Love Hachuping: The Legend of the Whale Jewel" on August 5... Teaser Poster Unveiled

Global IP content company SAMG Entertainment has confirmed August 5 as the release date for the second installment of the "Love Hachuping" movie series, titled "Love Hachuping: The Legend of the Whale Jewel," and has released its teaser poster.

"Love Hachuping: The Legend of the Whale Jewel" is the sequel to "Love Hachuping," which was released in August last year and attracted a cumulative audience of 1.24 million in Korea. This new film is a fantasy animation that follows the miraculous adventure of Romi and Hachuping as they set out to rescue Romi's mother, who has disappeared into the sea.

The teaser poster maintains the lovely and warm atmosphere characteristic of the previous film, while also presenting an expanded universe and a sense of new adventure. In particular, it features Romi and Hachuping embarking on a journey with the sea as their backdrop for the first time, heightening anticipation among fans.

This installment introduces new characters who assist Romi on her adventure, as well as new Tiniping characters. Kite, the sea boy who acts as Romi's guide, and newly joined Tinipings such as Bangulping, Challangping, and Soraping, are expected to bring new energy to the story.

The visuals, which combine existing popular characters and new ones against the refreshing backdrop of the summer sea and waves, are also eye-catching. The line "Together, we're not afraid" in the poster hints at Romi's growth and determination as she faces a grand adventure, foreshadowing the film's emotional narrative.

The movie unfolds around an adventure set against the majestic sea and centers on themes of family love. It is expected to appeal broadly to families as well as audiences in their 20s and 30s at the box office this summer.

Suhun Kim, CEO of SAMG Entertainment, said, "While the first film told the story of Romi's first realization of the meaning of love, the second film is about truly feeling a mother's love. We hope this will be a warm work that all families visiting the theater can relate to and be moved by."

He added, "Starting with the release of the teaser poster, we plan to sequentially release various content such as the OST and preview videos starting next week."

Riding on the success of the previous film, this new installment is drawing attention as it features an expanded universe, new characters, and an emotional narrative centered on family love, raising expectations for it to become the representative family animation of the summer box office.
