Let The Bullets Fly In The New Teaser For PHANTOM DETECTIVE
Up for a little revisionist Korean Robin Hood reboot? Look no further than director Jo Sung-Hee who last gained notoriety for his 2012 fantasy romance flick, A Werewolf Boy.
Well, Hee is back again now, and with the delightful looking crime noir, Phantom Detective which opens in May. Actor Lee Je-Hoon leads this one, here and now in the latest of several repurposed cinematic approaches to iconic 16th century Korean folk hero Hong Gil-Dong, now in full flatfoot mode with 99% crime solving success rate, and hot on the trail of a new case involving a massive and mysterious cult.
The latest teaser trailer has arrived, is unsubbed and lends a few chuckles. It looks pretty slick and invokes enough charm and luster to neighbor next to the moodiness and bullets that fly throughout. Take a look!
