If you loved Dachimawa Lee, try Arahan

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Ryoo Seung-wan, and they both carry the playful mood tag, and they sit in Action / Comedy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Dachimawa Lee, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

playful

What Arahan is

Downtown Seoul. An errant gust. A discarded paper cup skitters. Meek Officer Sang-hwan stumbles into a hidden war between rival factions of mystical martial artists. He is prophesied to be the savior. A wuxia parody for the post-Tarantino set.
