The Man Standing Next

In 1979, with South Korea’s former intelligence chief (Kwak Do-Won) going public to America’s congress about the regime’s corruption, President Park (Lee Sung-Min) tasked his trusted ally, current KCIA director Kim (Lee Byung-Hun), with getting his predecessor in line. The rippling turmoil over the weeks that followed, however, would culminate with Park’s assassination--by a stunning hand. Popular, acclaimed true-life political thriller also stars Lee Hee-Joon. 114 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: Korean; Subtitles: English. In Korean with English subtitles.
