If you want something completely different, this is it. It deals with the tensions between North en south Korea, and the agencies involved doing their cold war stuff. Don't expect anything heavy, it is a lighthearted buddy comedy with some fighting action sequences. The ending is a bit Hollywoodish, but good entertainment nonetheless.

Very Hollywood. Not a good thing.

Hun Jang is known as protegé Kim Ki-duk, yet his cinema style has nothing to do with arthouse. Buddy cop films are very popular in Korea since Tukabseu franchise in the 90's and this one follows the laid-out formula pretty closely, well except it's with spies. Kang-ho Song totally steals the show, like with every movie that he is in. Lightweight, formulaic, but fairly entertaining movie for guys.
