The Korean thriller Howling is slated to hit theaters in its native country on February 9th, 2012 and today Beyond Hollywood has the new poster for the film. Howling is about two detectives trying to unravel the murder mystery surrounding a killer “wolfdog” and stars Song Kang-ho, one of the most recognizable faces in Korean cinema thanks to his turns in films like The Host, Thirst, and Memories of Murder. He co-stars alongside Lee Na-young (Dream of a Warrior).

Director Yoo Ha is no slouch either, having helmed such movies as A Dirty Carnival and A Frozen Flower. All in all, Howling is shaping up to be one of 2012’s Korean films to watch. Beyond Hollywood has the English-subbed trailer.

Update: Asian Movie Pulse reports that Howling is a resounding hit at the Korean box office. In its first week, it knocked Nameless Gangster from the top slot. The movie is expected to surpass one million ticket admissions by the end of the week.
