This year’s festival at Cannes kicks off one month from today. In the meantime a raft of Korean titles are inbound for the crowd and one of which includes director Byun Sung-Hyun’s new action crime thriller, The Merciless, for which its latest international trailer has now gone viral to make its case.
Jae-Ho is the prisoner who makes rules and wields the most power among the inmates. Outside of prison, he was the #2 guy in a criminal gang, but he is ambitious enough to go after the #1 spot upon his release.
