Her fiance Soo-Hyun, a top secret agent, decides to track down the murderer himself. He promises himself that he will do everything in his power to take bloody vengeance against the killer, even if it means that he must become a monster himself to get this monstrous and inhumane killer.

One of the greatest revenge movie I have ever seen. Great directing by Kim Ji-woon and amazing acting by Choi Min-sik and Lee Byung-hun.Great cinematography and very well made action scenes(really brutal). If You are a fan of movies like Oldboy or Se7en you will definitely enjoy this one.
