Additional InformationHailing from South Korea, director Kyung-Taek Kwak (FRIEND) brings some explosive subject matter to the silver screen with TYPHOON. Kwak follows in the tradition of directors such as John Woo (HARD BOILED) and Takashi Miike (DEAD OR ALIVE), molding a fast-paced action thriller that manages to divide its time between visceral set pieces and intriguing plot developments. Sin (Jang Dong-Gun) is from North Korea and still feels the effects of his parents' slaying at the hands of brutal South Korean tormentors, who refused to allow Sin's family to move into the country when he was a kid. Sin plans to destroy both North and South Korea in the ultimate act of vengeance, and his acquisition of some potentially deadly nuclear waste helps further his maniacal dreams. Jang Se-jong (Jung-Jae Lee) is a South Korean native whose naval training is called upon when he is given the task of tackling Sin, and director Kwak draws on a strong supporting cast to act out some explosive and bloody battles as the two men go head-to-head. Audiences will surely revel in the on-screen pyrotechnics and death-defying stunt work that barely lets up from start to finish.
