"The New World" was once called the Korean version of "Infernal Affairs" by the Korean media, but it did not develop in two lines like "Infernal Affairs". There are also weaknesses in the character and plot development. Cui Minzhi played the role of Chief Jiang Jiang. too little. To be honest, I didn't expect anything to do with Infernal Affairs after reading it. There is no doubt that both films are gangster films, and the protagonists of the story are also undercover, but the overall tone of the two films is completely different. Infernal Affairs is obviously biased towards idealism, while New World is a realistic realist gangster film. In addition to Ding Qing's basic feelings for Li Zicheng, emotional factors are only the foil of reason.
I think this is a very exciting undercover gangster film. The ending is quite realistic. Undercovers are not necessarily just that way. Because undercover agents are also humans, as long as they are humans, in order to survive and face the oppression of fate, they will resist. This has nothing to do with justice or not, this is true human nature.
