The Chaser

Ex PI-turned-pimp, Joong-Ho is facing a serious human resources crisis, as his girls are disappearing one after the other leaving him deeper and deeper into debt. He then notices that just before they disappeared, they all had an appointment with the same client. Surely, this can’t be a coincidence, can it? A huge box office hit in Korea, The Chaser has many tricks up its sleeve, including a plot full of twists and turns, impeccable pace and healthy doses of black humor that give a new lease of life to the clichés of the genre. Official selection at Cannes.
