The experiment’s achievement is credited to scientists Seo Hyun and Sang-hun. The former is the group leader of the laboratory that created brain cloning and artificial intelligence technologies, whereas the latter is its director.

The film, set in the 22nd century, depicts a planet that has become unsustainable due to climate change. In the middle of the destruction, an internal fight develops in the bunker built for human survival.

A researcher at an AI facility leads an attempt to end a civil war by replicating the brain of a courageous soldier who is her mother. The cloning project might hold the key to victory in the war.

In the new visual for JUNG E, we get the first look at the high-tech society of the 22nd century before it snaps in on close-ups of the brain cloning process, generating what the trailer terms an “AI combat warrior.” The teaser finishes just before the robot’s eyes open after installing the artificial brain.
