Memorial Service In Commemoration Of Kim Joo Hyuk To Be Held In Private

During the Joseon Dynasty, King Lee Jo (Kim Eui Sang) is a toady of the Qing Emperor in China – and the Crown Prince decides to attempt a coup to free the nation from the Qing’s influence. His plan involves buying arquebuses, an early form of firearm, from Dutch traders.

However, a rival plot is being hatched by the war minister Kim Ja Joon (Jang Dong Gun), who wants to launch a rebellion and take the Joseon throne. Kim Ja Joon exposes the Crown Prince’s scheme and foils him.

The Crown Prince agrees to commit suicide if his men are spared but sends word to his brother Gang Lim (Hyun Bin), who is now in Qing territory, that he wants his brother to take care of his pregnant wife.

The minister orders his troops to board the Dutch traders’ cargo ships to seize the weapons.

But while aboard, one of the soldiers is bitten by a terrifying zombie being kept in a cage.

The soldier returns to his home village, unaware that he is now the host of a savage infection.

Soon, the entire village becomes infected – with its population turning into flesh-eating zombies.

Gang Lim must navigate this chaos and save his sister-in-law from the twin peril of warring powermongers and gruesome zombies. Is he up to the challenge?

The fresh meat team

When his informant is brutally murdered, police officer Won Ho (Jo Jin Woong) vows to find the killer.

He meets a woman named Oh Yeon Ok (Kim Sun Ryung), who tells him that the man behind the murder is a mysterious drug cartel boss known in the underworld as “Mr. Lee.”

She goes on to explain that Mr. Lee is one of the most dangerous people in the world, and says that he is known to guard his identity carefully.

This same Mr. Lee, she adds, attempted to kill her by blowing up a building. Won Ho visits the scene of the crime and finds a man he believes to be a member of Mr. Lee’s gang – a man named Rak (Ryu Jun Yeol).

Rak agrees to help Won Ho after the latter hatches a plan to set up a drug deal that will hopefully flush Mr. Lee out into the open.

But tracking down the “real” Mr. Lee becomes harder than Won Ho initially thought – as several crooks have already begun using Mr. Lee’s alias to conduct their own nefarious deals.

Can Won Ho discover the identity of the country’s most infamous drug lord?

This movie is based on the 2012 film “Drug War.”
