Won Bin is as big as they come in Korea when it comes to movie stars. After serving his military service he played a role of an imbecile in a dark movie about a mother who tries to clear her only son from a murder charge. This time, his comeback takes on the subject of 'revenge.'
Won Bin plays a regular 'Ajussi' whose lonely life is consoled by the presence of a neighboring girl who approaches him for his affection. Upon the disappearance of the girl along with her mother, Tae Sik (Won Bin's character) transforms into a dark character determined to seek revenge for the missing girl and her mother.
Even if you don't know who Won Bin is and don't really care, this movie should be worth watching as it is one of the most awaited Korean summer blockbusters in 2010.
Ajussi will be playing CGV multiplexes in Yongsan, Myeongdong, Gangnam and Guro until Sept 8 at various times. Do check before you head out.
Here's the trailer for Ajussi. Enjoy.
