Source checked 5 November 2026. Netflix announced 6 November for Lee Chang-dong’s Possible Love. The film follows two couples whose lives intersect, making their different circumstances part of the drama.
What to watch for
Notice how each household reads the same encounter. Pay attention to who can leave a conversation and who has to keep it going. If you’re new to Lee’s films, start here or look up Secret Sunshine separately in your local catalogue. Check your account for the release and available subtitles.
Cast, context and a spoiler-free way to choose
Netflix names Jeon Do-yeon as Mi-ok, Sul Kyung-gu as her husband Ho-seok, Cho Yeo-jeong as documentary filmmaker Ye-ji, and Zo In-sung as Ye-ji’s husband Sang-woo. The documentary project brings the couples together across a difference in income and circumstances. That makes the ethics of filming someone else’s difficult experience an interesting question to take into the film, without presuming how the story resolves.
Netflix also identifies Possible Love as Lee Chang-dong’s first feature since Burning (2018) and reports that it won the Silver Lion Grand Jury Prize at the 2026 Venice Film Festival. Those are official release and festival details, not a personal review or audience rating. The worldwide streaming date announced by Netflix is 6 November 2026; subtitles and account availability should still be checked in your own region.
