Synopsis

The map where the independence army's military funds are stored is contained within the body of the Buddha statue. A bloody fight ensues over this, and In-sik, a patriotic young man, searches for the lost Buddha statue with Monk Hae-cho. At this time, he meets a female singer named Gyocheongcheong. And Detective Mori follows them. They came all the way to Manchuria in search of the Buddha statue. The Buddha statue is kept in the home of an antiques enthusiast named Jincheon. The provincial office goes from place to place looking for Buddha statues. Seoljungmae appears like the wind and disappears without a sound. It is she, the school district office, who is the one who chills the conversation among Japanese people. Ultimately, thanks to her activities, the Buddha statue containing the map falls into the hands of the independence army.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 13

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
