"Hommage" deals with film restoration. The project is the rare leading role for Lee Jung-eun, who despite her plaudits for "Parasite" in 2019, remains best known for supporting roles. Lee Jung-eun is currently appearing in "Soundtrack #1" and "Our Blues" in featured supporting roles. Lee Jung-eun has also been confirmed as the lead alongside Jung Ryeo-won and Jang Jin-hee in "The Woman in the White Car" which is expected to be released in the first half of this year.
