Possible Love가능한 사랑

Possible Love (가능한 사랑) is a 2026 drama film directed by Lee Chang-dong (이창동), co-written with Oh Jung-mi, and starring Jeon Do-yeon (전도연), Sul Kyung-gu (설경구), Zo In-sung (조인성) and Cho Yeo-jeong (조여정). It is a South Korea–United States co-production, runs 164 minutes and is in Korean.¹ It follows two married couples, a laid-off worker and his wife and a documentary filmmaker and her husband, whose paths cross as they film a documentary and face different lives and hidden desires.¹

The film premiered in the main competition of the 83rd Venice International Film Festival on September 6, 2026, and won the Grand Jury Prize and the FIPRESCI Prize there. It opened in South Korean cinemas on September 23 and in the United States on October 23, and Netflix releases it worldwide on November 6. It was also selected as South Korea's entry for Best International Feature Film at the 99th Academy Awards.¹

DabPop counts it among Korean directors' major international wins, in a table of wins at Cannes, Venice, Berlin, the Oscars and the Emmys, where Lee Chang-dong's Venice prize is listed.² Its November 6 Netflix date is a streaming date rather than a cinema one, so it appears in DabPop's November 2026 film release calendar with that note, and it is one of the films in DabPop's explainer on how Korea's box office is counted, which shows its KOBIS figures.³⁴
