Detective Duo Cracks Down on Corrupt Religious Groups
IM Chang-jung and
Daniel CHOI, the two leads from
Traffickers (2012), are getting together again for a new detective film,
Chi-wae Beop-kwon (working title) which translates as extraterritoriality. IM and CHOI were praised for their roles in
Traffickers although the film underperformed, and many are waiting to see how they will partner up for the new project.
IM will play a brilliant criminal profiler who is fast with his fist. CHOI will play the perfect detective who seems to have it all, but is more interested in women than capturing suspects. Together, they try to uncover a man named Sung-ki, who is the sheikh of a cult religion.
IM Chang-jung started his acting career in the 90s, but it wasn’t until he released a music album that he became recognized. Soon afterwards, he was respected as a singer and as an actor. Starting with his role in the 1997 film
Beat, he built a strong filmography through
Sex is Zero (2002) and
To Catch a Virgin Ghost (2004). More recently, his films have had a weaker presence at the box office, but he continues to bring quality performances.
With his experience in modeling, Daniel CHOI stepped into acting through TV drama series. He played a comical role in the TV sitcom Highkick 2, where he made a name for himself and stepped into the film industry and since then has been continuously acted in TV dramas and films.
