Engaging and riveting  from beginning to end!  This film deserves a 5 stars for its great cinematography, laudable acting and unique twists that will blow you away.  Great support was also given by the gay friends,  yes, even the dog Sandy.  What was supposed to be a sad, sad birthday for Yim Chun-bong turned out to be a twist of fate as he helps a  man escape the bad goons . And when viewers really thought he was dead, it was actually a surprise for him by the gang! Kudos to the director and writer Sung-ho Kim for the great plot and over-all exhibition and techniques used.  Definitely a must-watch!
