Veteran detective Seo Do-cheol who doggedly goes after the bad guys will be back in theaters this Chuseok holiday.

I had peace of mind knowing that all the details were worked out before shooting.
There were many well choreographed and precise action scenes.

The film has been critically and commercially acclaimed, having been officially invited to the Cannes Film Festival.

I hope to revive this role to perfection and leave a lasting impression on the audience who returned as fans.
