The Roundup: No Way Out

Seven years after his previous mission in Vietnam, Detective Ma Seok Do (Ma Dong Seok) is transferred to a new crime investigation unit in Seoul, where he is tasked with solving a murder case. However, as Seok Do and his team investigate, they find that the murder is tied to a crime syndicate distributing a powerful new synthetic drug. Seok Do arrests the culprit behind the murder, but the case takes a swift turn – Joo Sung Chul (Lee Jun Hyuk), the captain of a police narcotics investigations unit, has his own agenda, killing Seok Do's suspect and seizing the drugs that Seok Do's team secured. As Seok Do and his team plan a new strategy, the yakuza dispatches a hitman named Ricky (Munetaka Aoki) to steal the drugs back from Sung Chul. Can Seok Do prevent an all-out drug war from spilling out onto the streets of Seoul? This 2023 South Korean movie is the third in the "Crime City" series, following 2017's "The Outlaws" and 2022's "The Roundup."
