Synopsis

Tae-su, a detective specializing in organized crime, returns to his hometown to attend the funeral of his high school friend Wang-jae. At the funeral, he reunites with his old friends Pil-ho, Dong-hwan, and Seok-hwan, and they share memories of the past. Becoming suspicious about the circumstances of Wang-jae's death, Tae-su and Seok-hwan begin their own investigations, each pursuing leads independently. Their inquiries eventually uncover a connection to a land development project that Pil-ho is overseeing.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 16

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.
