ABO is going hard this month as the release date approaches for Lee Sang-yong’s Don Lee threequel, The Roundup: No Way Out. The film comes out in South Korea late May with other territories pending from this summer, including ours, and I reckon it’ll be just in time for some of this year’s festivals to add it to their slates, hopefully.
What I love most is that Jun Kunimura gets a few visuals here along with the film’s Korean and Japanese cast which really antes things up some since the franchise took off in 2017. This time, our main star is part of a regional investigation unit tackling a new enemy in actor Lee Jun-Hyuk, and the Yakuza are involved as well. Hence Kunimura and sword-wielding Munetaka Aoki.
The trailer below also arrived hours earlier with Korean subtitles with ABO debuting in English as of Wednesday. Check it out!
