(2010)
An accomplished secret agent, Soo-hyun, vows for revenge at any cost after his pregnant fiance is brutally killed by a murderous psychopath. What ensues is a cat and mouse game with a few twists, where Soo-hyun begins to tread the grey area of good and bad in his quest for justice. Unlike most Korean revenge movies, the crazy psychopath isn't the one with the upper hand here. I think that's what really makes this movie so unique, and why it has since been rated among the best (second to Old Boy and accompanying films from that director).
