Among the best to take this direction isThe Killer.
Hyuk stole every action scene, with his fluid movements and utilization of surroundings being captured excellently by Choi.
The basic premises are very similar and the motivations of the main characters are as well.
The Killer, however, has no need of light-hearted moments.
While a few laughs here and there wouldn’t hurt, this leans more towards an action/thriller likeKill Bill.
