The trailer for Song of the Bandits previews Netflix’s upcoming Western thriller series, which is set in lawless 1920s Gando and tells the story of those who have come together to protect their loved ones and home.
“An action-adventure set in the tumultuous period of Japanese colonial rule over Korea about a group of people who, for various reasons, end up in the lawless land of Gando and become united in protecting Joseon for the Korean people,” reads the official logline. “Anticipation runs high for the intense drama that will unfold as different groups with their respective motives — including Japanese troops, the Korean Independence Army, hitmen, bandits, and Joseon migrants — face one another in the anarchic land of Gando during the 1920s.”
