Yeogyosu-ui eunmilhan maeryeok (2006)
Good Movie, if you are Korean
I don't know what the other people are saying, but I found this movie very entertaining, funny, and relaxing. A lot of the humor in the movie, however, I feel can only be understood by being Korean. There are so many instances of aspects of characters, culture, and language that are ridiculously hilarious.
Besides the humor, I enjoyed the setting of the film a lot as well. The flashback scenes to the 80's were especially memorable. Being Korean myself, I felt like I was IN the scenes, back in those times.
Overall, I thought this movie was extremely hilarious, and also very relaxing, with it's peaceful, gentle pace.

Excellent, Stylish, Very Entertaining
This is simply an excellent crime/drug movie with great acting and great cinematography. If you are an individual in the younger generation (teens, 20's, 30's) you will most probably enjoy this movie. You get a very stylish look into the life of the Pusan (second largest Korean city; also largest port in Korea) drug/crime underworld.
In fact, Busan is famous for it's gangsters, being the second largest city of Korea and also a mecca for import/export trading. It is also the closest point between Korea and Japan. After the war (WWII), a lot of Koreans and Japanese inter-migrated through this city, during a time when industrialism and yaks gangs developed tremendously.
Knowing this, you may get a better understanding of the scenery and setting of this awesome movie.
