Lost in Starlight Reveals New Poster Visual & Official Trailer Featuring Main Couple

A new poster visual and official English-subbed trailer was revealed earlier in the month for the upcoming Korean animated film Lost in Starlight. The film is scheduled to debut on the streaming service on May 30, 2025. 

Ji-won Han, who helmed the 2023 The Sea on the Day When the Magic Returns and the 2023 Korean Girls’ Love animated film The Summer, is directing the animated film and is also co-writing the screenplay with Hyun-joo Kang. 

Actors Tae-ri Kim and Hong Kyung are voicing the film’s main characters Nan-young and Jay, respectively. Meanwhile, Maitreyi Ramakrishnan and Justin H. Min will voice the lead characters in the English dub. 

Netflix describes the main premise of Lost in Starlight as: 

Set in 2050, Lost in Starlight tells the story of an astronaut dreaming of Mars and a musician with a broken dream who find each other among the stars, guided by their hopes and love for one another. 

Netflix stated that the film will be the “first-ever Korean original animated film” to be produced and released by the company. The Korea Times reported last October that Lost in Starlight will be one of seven Korean films Netflix plans to release throughout 2025. 

Variety previously reported that the South Korean government’s Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism will invest in a US$1 billion investment strategy to reform its animation industry and diversify its audience.
