The plot of "Alienoid: Return to the Future" revolves around an android named Guard (Kim Woo-bin) and his human daughter Lee Ahn (Kim Tae-ri), who travel through time to the Goryeo Kingdom. Lee Ahn fights to wield a legendary divine sword against Taoist magicians after being stranded in the past for a decade following her father's disappearance.Despite high expectations, the first installment of the "Alienoid" series received a lukewarm response at the box office, selling just over 1.5 million tickets. The sequel aimed to surpass its predecessor with a faster-paced plot and larger action sequences but struggled to attract audiences, selling approximately 1.4 million tickets.
