This movie made me incredibly sad. I was sad for some of the bad guys. What the what? I’m serious. I was bawling big baby tears over it and it (nor I) was pretty. Here’s the blurb on Asian Wiki about the movie:
A 5 member gang, led by Seok-Tae , kidnaps a baby boy named Hwayi and raises the baby like their own son. The baby boy is now 17 years old and he has been trained to become a lethal killer. Taking part with his fathers in his first murder, Hwayi learns something about his own past. Hwayi pulls out his gun to find out who he really is.
I am going to jump around in this review because that is how my brain works so bear with me. First off Yeo Jin Goo played the blankity blank out of the Hwayi role.
Having 5 fathers, all who are fucking psychotic very bad men, he would have to have some issues, and believe you me, he does. It’s hard to believe this man is 19. I haven’t seen this actor in anything before but I am definitely keeping my eye on him now.
There are some twists in the plot that I won’t reveal (you need to watch the movie) but I will say a few things. Number 1: the main father, Seok-tae, was not a nice man.
I mean I can find redeeming qualities in many of the traditional”bad guys” but not with this one. Not this man. I guess you can say he played his role well because I REALLY disliked him and am glad he got what was coming to him.
Number 2: I cried over the death of one of the 5 fathers. Big ole sobbing tears.
I’m crying for the bad guy? What is this trickery? #Hwayi

There was some light (extremely light) romance but for the most part, it was action and more action. Check out the trailer below and see if you’re interested in watching.
