Trailer For 'The Man From Nowhere'

 

The trailer has been released for 'The Man From Nowhere', a new ultra-violent Korean ode to  the hard boiled American grindhouse pictures of the 1970s. The film sees heartthrob Won Bin ('Taegukgi') throwing aside his pretty boy image, and going on a one-man vendetta to save a young girl from captivity.

Synopsis

Ex-special agent Cha Tae-Sik’s (Won Bin) only connection to the rest of the world is a little girl, So-Mi (Kim Se-Ron), who lives nearby. So-Mi’s mother, Hyo-Jeong smuggles drugs from a drug trafficking organization and entrusts Tae-sik with the product, without letting him know. When the traffickers find out they kidnap both Hyo-Jeong and So-Mi. Mistaking Tae-Sik for another mule, the brothers that lead the gang promise to release Hyo-Jeong and So-Mi if Tae-Sik makes a delivery for them. After much consideration, Tae-Sik makes the decision to face the outside world in order to rescue So-Mi. At the same time, Hyo-Jeong’s disemboweled body is discovered, and Tae-Sik realizes that So-Mi’s life may also be in danger. In the process, he discovers that their drug ring operates around kidnapped children. Stumbling upon a factory where the brothers have children’s organs removed to accommodate the drugs, Tae-Sik rescues one child just before surgery and becomes enraged at the prospect So-Mi may already be dead. Tae-sik prepares for a battle with Man-Sik and Jong-Sik, putting his own life at risk.

'The Man From Nowhere' opens across Korea on the 5th August, 2010.
