Being released on the same date it did 10 years ago, "Oldboy" came out with a new poster. The two men's act of revenge on the 10 year-old poster is nowhere to be seen and the Kim Myung-soo in 'old' is replaced with a hammer that is to be remembered from the movie. The font for 'old' has also been encrypted with '10' instead.

The purple background brings up the memories of Oh Dae-soo (Choi Min-sik) receiving a purple gift box from Lee Woo-jin (Yoo Ji-tae) and his handkerchief, as well as the patterns from the walls of the cell.

"Oldboy" spread the energy of Korean movies and is now being re-mastered to be more detailed and clearer for the audience.
