The story is about a police man named Min jae who is appointed to watch over another police man's (Park) activity which are thought to be illegal. For investing Min Jae joined the team of Park and have been working for him while collecting information against him. Will Min Jae be able to disclose Park's illegal activity?
It might contain some spoilers, The movie is dragged a bit. It could have been better if their chemistry is shown more. If Min Jae past was shown before, it will help audience to understand more. They will understand the concept, why Min wants to be a honest cop? Who's behind his father's murder?

I enjoyed both Choi Woo-sik (Parasite) and Cho Jin-woong (The Handmaiden) past movies and TV series. It's exciting to see their intense chemistry in this unstoppable crime drama. Full of twists and stylish action sequences.
Storyline: Fast pace movie in 2 hours, undercover police in police unit. Interesting how the movie brings you to the perspective of certain police.
Excellent storyline.
Excellent storyline.
Yet another awesome movie to come out of South Korea. Good cast and great acting all round with this crime drama. Plenty of illegal goings on and corruption throughout with a fast pace to boot. I won't give anything away in my review but i'm hoping for a second movie. Definitely a must watch for South Korean movie fans.
When I heard about THE POLICEMAN'S LINEAGE, another undercover cop drama from South Korea, I expected a lot. The country has a fine history of making compelling and exciting genre films and I hoped this would offer more of the same. Sadly, the end result is a distinctly average production that never really gets off the ground, despite the usual sterling production values and attention to detail. The hero, played by the kid from PARASITE, is sent in undercover to investigate a corrupt cop and his buddies, and the story develops from there. The usual shades-of-grey characters are interesting but the film never really thrilled me in the way I hoped it would. Instead I was left thinking, so what?
