Through the cold reality, the film tells the story of a Korean ethnic Jiunan who survived tenaciously in the cruel reality
. There was no news for a month, so rumors spread around him that his wife ran away with other men behind his back. Jiunan was very uncomfortable and became decadent. He used alcohol and gambling to kill time all day. At this time, the Korean black boss Mian Zhenghe decided to help Jiunan and gave him 60,000 yuan to repay his debts. The condition was to go to Seoul to help him kill someone. After several deliberation, Jiunan agreed to the conditions put forward by Mian boss, and decided to give it a go and go to Korea to find his wife by the way.
Finally, there is an opportunity to change the fate, but the cruel reality makes people uncomfortable and suffocating. When he arrives in South Korea, while looking for the news of his wife, Jiunan observes the movements of the person he is about to kill, and records his travel at any time. Law, prepare for murder.
After several days of observation, Jiu Nan basically mastered Professor Jin's daily routine and life activities.
Finally, when the opportunity came, he decided to kill the target Professor Jin one night, so he lurked near where he lived, and when his driver left, he was ready to do it, but Professor Jin's driver did not leave. Leaning on the side of the car to continue smoking.
At this time, there was a loud noise in the air, and the glass of Professor Jin's residence shattered, and then there was a sound of fighting. Suddenly, a person fell from the window on the sixth floor and hit the car heavily. The driver didn't see the plane well. , rushed up immediately. At this time, Jiu Nan looked puzzled and didn't know what happened. When he rushed to Professor Jin's house, he was completely stunned. Professor Jin had been stabbed to death at the door of the house.
This time, Jiunan has become a scapegoat, and the white and the underworld will kill him. Jiunan could only run away desperately, because the only thing facing him was death.
What used to be simple suddenly became complicated. Jiu Nan was suddenly forced into a desperate situation.
He hid in the mountains on foot, hunger and panic went hand in hand, and he couldn't stop in the face of the police roundup. The left hand wounded by the gun was bleeding nonstop, and the fear and pain made Jiu Nan shed heavy tears. How ruthless fate is, destroying his incomplete heart.
A small person on the fringes of society, overnight became a felon wanted by the whole country. He has put his life aside for a long time, just for that sentence: don't live like a dog...
Escape makes him exhausted, but his faith in finding his wife is still not broken. Wife was framed.
His wife made him stop thinking, but his daughter made him worry about it, so he had to smuggle back to China, but Boss Mian already knew that Jiu Nan was wanted, and he was afraid that he would be implicated, so his purpose was very clear, to kill Jiu Nan .
In the second half of the film, the role of the police is subjectively weakened. In order to highlight the conflict between the characters, it has completely become a confrontation between the three of Mian boss Jiunan Jin Taiyuan. And Kim Tae-won was the man behind the murder of Boss Kim.
The highly dramatic script design does not conceal its purpose of criticizing reality. Luo Hongzhen is good at describing the reappearance of little people in reality. This time, however, I chose the Korean people who are not concerned in reality. Through realistic angles, exaggerated tactics, bloody scene scheduling, and dramatic plots, the film has reached a new height of Korean crime movies. The writing of the fate of the low-level people on the edge reflects his high humanistic care and critical realistic feelings.
At the end of the film, it stops at the Yellow Sea. Perhaps only the Yellow Sea between the inland and the DPRK is the final destination of Jiu Nan.
