“Power can not be taken alone.”

CrimeThriller

Ik-hyeon, a corrupt officer, joins forces with another crook, Hyung-bae, to continue his illegal activities before he loses his job. Eventually, he decides to escape and pin the blame on his partner.

VIBE

This film feels like a smoke-filled room where deals are made in hushed tones. It's a gritty, morally ambiguous descent into the heart of organized crime, where loyalty is fleeting and power is the only currency that matters. Expect a slow burn with explosive consequences.
