Genie Music & CJ Entertainment have released a soundtrack album for the South Korean historical/biographical spy thriller Harbin. The album features the film’s original music composed by Cho Young-Wuk (Oldboy, The Handmaiden, The Sympathizer, Thirst, Lady Vengeance,  Decision to Leave, The Little Drummer Girl). The soundtrack is now available to stream/download on Amazon and any other major digital music services. Also listen to a track (Battle of Kyung Heung) from the composer’s score below. Harbin is co-written and directed by Woo Min-ho and stars Hyun Bin, Park Jeong-min, Jeon Yeo-been, Jo Woo-jin and Lee Dong-wook. The movie is set in 1909, several years after Korea is forced into becoming a Japanese colony, and tells the story of a group of freedom fighters who plot the daring assassination of Japan’s prime minister during their quest for independence.
