Typhoon

Battered container ship mid-Pacific. A stowaway in a yellow rain slicker slips a radio-encased detonator into his coat pocket. His brother’s execution video plays on three phones at once while diesel engines idle. A single typhoon warning siren wails in Busan Harbor. Kwak’s neon-noir thriller where the storm is the only thing not man-made.
