The film was screened as an invitation to the Cannes Film Festival and made its first debut as an actor and director.Hunt is a Korean version of a spy thriller set in the 1980s and is well described based on the background of the times.
Based on the political military regime, the military massacres against the Gwangju massacre, and the U.S. military policy in Northeast Asia based on the political incidents of North Korea and South Korea,
it is forming a spy figure based on practical grounds. He starred as a director and main actor, and the other actor starred his best friend and actor Woo-Sung Jung.
They are already the best actors in Korea and have continued their relationship as close friends as co-stars in youth idol films for more than 20 years.
The movie starts with the background of the United States and develops with unpredictable interest and twists to the point where it is impossible to predict who the spy’s name is, “Donglim.”
In addition, he is the head of the overseas team of the domestic team belonging to the Ministry of National Security Planning,
the ills of the military government, and shows a fierce conflict with the team members.
The sense of reality doubles, perhaps because it is tailored to the reality of South Korea and North Korea, the only divided countries,
focusing on the oriental background different from the traditional intelligence materials shown in Europe and the United States.
Even now, South Korea unveiled a South Korean-style squad missile on Oct. 1 and showed the strength of its current military forces, and a U.S. aircraft carrier was conducting joint drills in the East Sea, and North Korea fired about seven missiles a day.
China/Taiwan’s military confrontation has led to territorial disputes such as the invasion of Russia and Ukraine, and concerns over economic and military impulses by the U.S. and China after World War II and indirect competition with Russia have put the world on edge.
The global coronavirus pandemic and each country’s austerity measures against rising prices also seem to be living in too much chaos in our generation, a serious imbalance in the environment and raw materials.
