🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The director constructs a narrative that thrives on contrast, merging crime thriller tension with the rhythms of a situational black comedy. He relies on grotesque characters and absurd scenarios to gradually expose the tragicomic core of a protagonist trapped by his own vices.

What lingers after the credits is a peculiar blend of pity for the underdog and the realization that his cage is self-made. A chase story where the ghosts are always internal. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Lee Yeon-woo
