The Yellow Sea (2010) (Blu-ray) (English Subtitled) (Hong Kong Version) Blu-ray Region All

From the makers of The Chaser comes the acclaimed thriller The Yellow Sea. Director Na Hong Jin teams up again with award-winning actors Kim Yoon Seok and Ha Jung Woo for his ambitious sophomore feature, which brings the grim action all the way from Yanbian, the Korean-populated region in Northeast China bordering North Korea, to Seoul and Busan. The Yellow Sea packs a hard punch with its thrilling car chases and gritty violence, but it's above all the powerful performances of the two leading actors that make the film a compelling and exhilarating watch. Ha Jung Woo won Best Actor at the 5th Asian Film Awards for his turn as a desperate man on the run in a foreign land.

A taxi driver in Yanbian, Gu Nam (Ha Jung Woo) is knee deep in gambling debt, and he hasn't heard from his wife since she left for South Korea half a year ago. To clear his debt and find his wife, he reluctantly takes a job to assassinate a businessman in South Korea. When the hit job goes wrong, Gu Nam suddenly finds himself the target of the police, the mafia, and the very man who hired him, brutal assassin Myun Ga (Kim Yoon Seok).
