Synopsis: Director Choi Ho takes an uncompromising look at Korea's drug problem in the hard-hitting, cynical film noir, Bloody Tie. Sang Do (Ryoo Seung Bum - Crying Fist, Arahan) is a small time player on the way up. A crystal meth dealer (known in Korea as ppong) with a tragic family history, he is forced to team up with a renegade dirty cop, Ho (Hwang Jung Min - You Are My Sunshine), to take down a powerful crimelord. Emulating the Hong Kong action thrillers of the 1980s, Bloody Tie shows a dark side of Korea rarely glimpsed in film, acknowledging the country's drug problems in this watershed thriller. Raw, gritty and uncompromising, Choi's film challenges as much as it entertains, with the two leads at the top of their game. Choo Ja Hyun received the Best New Actress Award at the 43rd Daejong Awards for her work in Bloody Tie.
