[edit] Synopsis

Directed by Choi Jong Tae, the film revolves around Chang Ka Pil (played by Lee Moon Sik) in his 40s, who leads an ordinary life with his adorable wife and their 17-year-old daughter, Dami (played by Kim So Eun).

He faces a crisis when his daughter is sexually assaulted by a high school boxing star from a rich, well-connected family and he finds no help from the school or police authorities.

To prove that he is not a coward and will do anything for his family, he decides to take revenge and physically beat up his daughter's tormentor. For the seemingly impossible task, he asks Go Seung Suk (by Lee Jun Ki), a rebellious high school student with talent for fighting, to train him.

[edit] Box office

Tickets had sold out before the movie even opened, as moviegoers rushed to buy tickets. The two actors Lee Jun Ki and Lee Moon Shik met with the viewers August 3, 2006 for the movie’s opening date, at the Daehan Theater and the Seoul Theater. With two weeks to go before the movie’s premiere, fans flocked to book tickets, showing an unprecedented response in domestic box-office history. Tickets that went on sale via the Internet on July 21 were sold out immediately, and box-office sales that began the following day closed in two hours. Some fans stood in line from 3 a.m. at the Daehan Theater to not miss the two lead actors introducing the movie in person. The announcement of additional stage appearances by the two lead actors set an equal explosive response from the audience.
