A Dirty Carnival: First Press Limited Edition (Korean Import)

When you're a poet, life assumes different shades of gray. After debuting with 2002's eclectic Marriage is a Crazy Thing, poet-turned-director Yoo Ha switched his focus to the dark days of his youth during Park Chung Hee's presidency, mainly characterized by violence, violence, and more violence. From such memories, Once Upon a Time in High School starring Kwon Sang Woo was born. A few years down the road, Yoo returned with the gritty gangster actioner A Dirty Carnival.

Byung Doo (Jo In Sung, A Frozen Flower) is a third-rate gangster roaming the streets. He is disrespected by his juniors in the organization and carries the burden of taking care of his ill mother and two brothers. Even his only source of extra money, a rundown arcade room, is stolen by one of his associates under his eyes. But finally luck comes knocking at the door. Mr. Hwang (Cheon Ho Jin, Crying Fist) offers Byung Doo a deal he can't refuse, a deal that could solve all his problems. But nothing's free in this world...
