CHOI’s talent as an exceptional storyteller went beyond making a movie based on his own story it absolutely shined in (2006), a big screen adaptation of the well-known cartoon of the same name by HUH Young-man, and (2010), which is based on an old fable. A movie that depicts how a group of professional swindlers cheat money out of the Bank of Korea, it was considered to have updated Korean-style crime thrillers with its unprecedentedly plausible and airtight storytelling. Tazza 2: Hand of God is directed by Kang Hyung-chul ( Speedy Scandal, Sunny) and will be released in theaters at Chuseok.CHOI Dong-hoon is a natural born storyteller whose debut film, (2004), redrew the map of Korean-style crime thriller flicks and brought the director instant fame. The trailer doesn’t reveal much, but we’re given small glimpses of a slick con movie, with some of the original cast making repeat appearances ( Yoo Hae-jin, Kim Yoon-seok), some new to the franchise faces ( Oh Jung-se - love him - of A New Leaf, Kwak Do-won of Suspicious Housekeeper), and Shin Se-Kyung ( When A Man Loves) and Honey Lee ( Shark) upping the pretty factor. He plunges fearlessly into the gambling underworld, and begins the high-stakes battle of his life. Like his uncle, Dae-gil has been competitive and good at sleight-of-hand from a very young age. In Tazza 2: Hand of God, TOP plays Dae-gil, the nephew of cardshark and swindler Go-ni (Jo Seung-woo in the first movie). The original comic had four parts, so if the latest installment does well, we could be in for a third movie (although we might have to wait a while to see it we’ve had to wait eight years for this one).



Tazza 2: Hand of God (let’s be real, they could have called it Tazza 2: Hand of TOP) is being released next month, and we’ll get to see how well the sequel does in comparison to the first movie, Tazza: The High Rollers, which sold over 6 million tickets in 2006.īoth works are based on the card-gambling manhwa illustrated by Heo Young-man and written by Kim Se-young, which also spawned an eponymous drama series starring Jang Hyuk in 2008. The long wait for TOP ( Choi Seung-hyun) fans is nearly over. 33 AugAugTazza 2: Hand of God hits theaters next month by awcoconuts
