Poongsan

Poongsan/ 풍산개 ** (Korean)
movie

Kim Gyu-ri as In-ok

Fair warning, there is torture and death involved.. along with a tragic ending.
There was momentary humor.. and a shared kiss or two. Although I would hesitate to say it truly represented either genre. The acting was good though and a fairly good storyline...so it squeaks by with a 2star.

A mysterious non-chatting sort of fellow, takes on jobs from a be-ribboned memorial and crossing the border between north and south with deliveries to loved ones on both sides. He is hired by the south gov agents to assist in bringing the lover of a defector down, so they might hasten him in finishing his report. The defector becomes enraged with jealousy, believing something might have happened between the two en-route. and the gov agents decide to use his skills with false promises. Then, the North Koreans, intent on making the defector pay with his life, uncaring of who they have to use or kill to get it done, enter the scene.
