The Childe

A hollywood style korean movie from director Park Hoon-jung, a black comedy one!

The strong element from this movie is the character, nobleman, he doesn't have a name, claiming himself as a PRO, sadistically kills people with a comedic side of him, joking, grinning, smirking, whistling

The plot is very easy to follow, if people not used to with director slow paced intro maybe will get bored, but it builds up really well in the second phase

The director try to tell a story about Kopino a person of mixed (Korean-Philippine) issue. How difficult it is to live when the Korean fathers leaving and stop contacting their children in the Philippine and no longer provide any support

Solid characters, a desperate one, double agent lady, a bad conglomerate, the comically hitman, witty dialog, chasing scene, blood, guns, lots of cars! You got everything in here, it's "professional"

Epic comeback seon ho, the film it's really good.

The cast very profesional. The best action film in 2023 for me hahahahahahah.

By the way i can not guess the plot from begun, and i really apreciate for the hard work.

I can feel seonho's emotion in this film, very clear and natural. And also i feel tired cause it seem like i joined running in the scene hahahahahhaa

And i think the film can reach a lot of audience.

I hope "the childe" will be succes.

Good job for Director, producer, team and all of cast.

I will wait for the next project, it will be nice if kim seon ho join the project haha.

This is a unique and exciting action film that keeps you interested and guessing throughout. The story centers around a Korean/Filipino heir to a dying Korean billionaire's fortune. He needs money to save his mother's life and this leads him down a path to reunite with his father that makes him the subject of multiple groups of people trying to kill, or kidnap him. The movie is violent and funny, in spots. The acting, filmmaking, and Direction are good. Some of the flighty choreography is a little grainy for my taste, but still good. There is a strange appeal to the characters, even though they do really bad things. This is another great Korean film. In Korean with English Subtitles.

Marco Han is a boxer in Phillipines and is involved in boxing betting to meet the ends. He has an ailing mother who is in dire need of surgery and Marco is struggling to earn the money. He is also a Kopino, born to a Korean father and Filipino mother. Without much options, he desperately searches for his father in order to ask him to pay for his mother's surgery. To his luck, his father reaches out to him and invites him to Korea. Everything happens so quickly, Marco fails to realize the dark motives behind flying him to Korea and nothing seems right. Luckily, Marco gets a friend, his last friend who pushes him to the extreme to realizing his fate.

To be honest, South Korean hardcore action dramas are always fun to watch. This one has a decent story but most importantly, it has a terrific character Gwigongja / Nobleman (Kim Seon-ho) who carries the entire film on his shoulders. Every scene he is on instantly becomes super fun. Initially the pace was slow and once Marco lands in Korea, the film simply takes off. Though the characters felt one dimensional, the final twist was dealt well. The total showdown in the end, remains worth the build up and though I wish, Marco had more action sequences than just trying to run for his life for most part of the film, those chase scenes still deliver.

When it comes to the gangster flick the "NEW WORLD" director excels in this genre and his latest offering is unique with its character development thats well crafted and the plot is delicately woven with suspenseful moments... Kim seon-ho carries the whole movie single handedly with his swag and mannerism and his evil smile is on top notch to watchout... While Kang tae remains suttle and his emotional quotient adds flavour to the flick... Inspite of two strong characters Kang woo Keeps us focused with his thuggish and cunning act... From a good action car chase,bloodshed stunts and impressive gun shots this a complete package of typical gangster flick highly recommended...
