A North Korean detective crosses into South Korea to pursue a dangerous criminal — and is partnered with a South Korean cop whose first priority is his career and whose second is not getting killed. Kim Sung-su's buddy action-comedy mines the premise for every possible joke about Korean cultural divergence since 1953: the North Korean is better trained, more disciplined, and completely baffled by everything about contemporary Seoul; the South Korean is connected, savvy, and completely outclassed in a fight. One of the most purely entertaining Korean action-comedies of its era.
