Dachimawa Lee
Villains, take the express train to hell!
Directed by Ryoo Seung-wan
Produced by Showbox, Filmmaker R&K
A rollicking, tongue-in-cheek spy-action adventure set during Japanese occupation of Korea, blending period intrigue with comedic irreverence and nationalist heroism.
Under Japanese imperialism, Korean national treasure Golden Buddha is stolen. More important to national security, the statue contains vital information concerning Korean freedom fighters and their whereabouts as well as their true identities. The interim Korean government appoints legendary Korean spy Agent Dachimawa Lee to recover the fabled statue and reveal the dark plot behind the theft.
