Embark on a road that never ends.

Spoiler alert.

I can't say it's a must-see film, but you'll regret missing it. There are too many crime-themed films in South Korea. Recently, every year in South Korea, there are crime films that directly point to human nature, money and interests. This story is yet another mess that is entangled in power and interests.
Let's talk about the hero first. In fact, from several perspectives, he looks a bit similar to my Zhao Youting, haha. This is a tough character, all I can say is. Within five minutes of the film's opening, he "hit and killed" a person with his car, and since then he has embarked on a dead end that cannot be turned back. In the panic, he began to think of ways to carry out a series of activities such as hiding corpses and throwing rocks. I really admire the screenwriter, who can even write the scene of dragging the corpse with children's toys. Well, it's not surprising, even a big man holding a balloon into the morgue has no doubts that such a plot has been made, what else can I say. Okay, as an audience, you can't be so picky, otherwise there will be good movies to watch.
Burying the body with the bereaved mother is a very novel stalk. It's good, so as long as no one comes to dig and rob the tomb, it will never be discovered. Just when the male protagonist was just relieved, as a policeman, he suddenly received the task assigned by the above. Damn, isn't this criminal the one I killed, how could I still be caught if I buried it? But later surveillance footage and an anonymous phone call from Officer Park confounded him again. I never imagined that everything that I had carefully arranged would be seen by others.
When Officer Park changed his clothes and gradually revealed his face, I knew that this could not be just a man behind the scenes, he would definitely come to the front. But what I didn't expect was that he appeared in front of the male protagonist so suddenly and openly, and ate his fist when the male protagonist was not in the situation at all. This is too scary, isn't it, the two tit-for-tat so soon will start to compete.
In the scene where the male protagonist and Officer Park were fighting in the toilet, the situation was clearly made clear that the male protagonist was not his opponent at all. Whether fighting or playing tricks. The male protagonist himself has a cowardly potential temperament. Don't look at him showing off his might in front of several patrol subordinates. You can't help but feel sorry for him when you look at his trembling appearance when hiding the corpse. So, let Officer Park seize the handle to scare and threaten, and he can only obediently become a manipulated puppet. Fortunately, the male protagonist is not stupid. He finally discovered the gunshot wound on the deceased's body, and quickly realized that he did not commit a murder. A call from a dead man's phone also makes it logical that Officer Park's purpose and crime are revealed. Isn't it all about money?
After all, the male protagonist is also a policeman, and he is not easy to bully. If you don't die, I will die. This is also forced. You take my gun and I can only bomb you with bombs. Officer Park is also a funny character. After walking away, he came back to invite the male protagonist to dinner. The male protagonist was already scared to pee because the bomb was about to explode haha. Within a few steps, the car exploded, and Officer Park fell into the river with him. The cautious male protagonist held his gun tremblingly for a long time and dared not let it go, for fear that this ghost-like thing would come back to haunt him before he died.
That man finally died.
Just when everyone including the male protagonist and the audience thought so, Officer Park suddenly appeared like a ghost again with blood on his face. I was really scared to death. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be. I usually watch horror movies. I'm not afraid of it.
Well, if you can't die, of course you have to come back for revenge. The two could only pinch again. Either you die or I live. I was so nervous the whole time that I knew exactly who would die. Maybe their fight was too intense. Officer Park is really funny. When the male protagonist ran from the trapped room to the next room from the balcony and along the outside wall, Officer Park actually said did you fly over. Forgive my low laugh.
After a long period of fierce struggle, the male protagonist was lucky to survive. If I read it correctly, it seems that Officer Park accidentally collapsed himself when he was holding a gun.
Thus ended the dispute caused by the car accident. Do you think it's over? Then what? The male protagonist's daughter picked up the key to the vault that Police Officer Park had fought with the deceased. The male protagonist had already resigned at this time, and she wondered if she could also pick up a windfall from this small vault. He carried a large travel bag to the vault, and told the caretaker that he would take all the goods. The man's contemptuous smile seemed to have foreshadowed something. But in the end, when the male protagonist opened the door of the vault, was he still stunned? It was simply an indescribable surprise. Who would have thought that the money they get from smuggling drugs can be described as a few stacks.

Well the story is over. It's such a slightly ridiculous crime story. In fact, it may be a true reflection of the real government of South Korea. The male protagonist's domineering and domineering in front of his subordinates, the police officer Park's intimidation and manipulation of the male protagonist, and finally, after the male protagonist killed the man, he was able to suppress the matter because the boss didn't want to offend the superior, so he was able to get away with it, all clearly show that the evil forces of the government are How powerful and stubborn. Well, it's not just Korea. The actions of government officials are like mirrors in everyone's heart. But no way, you can never compete with them. Stop naively thinking that justice can defeat everything, and you think you can change anything by your own power. The whole society operates under the control of the government, and on the surface it is justified. Well, don't take my words as anti-government and then put me on the spot for Fa-rectification. I just want to say that this phenomenon must exist, and it must be a rare case. Movies are also things that alert people, don't ask for anything else, you'll just understand after you've seen them.
