Good Fortune – Tazza: One Eyed Jack

Nothing shows good fortune like getting that perfect hand in a game of cards. But if you don’t have a good hand, can you bluff your way to the top? In “Tazza”, a young poker player at the top of his game loses everything after he tries his luck and plays for one big jackpot. But you know his story doesn’t end there, right? Of course not, it’s time to win all that money back! If you love poker and card games, then give this Korean movie a try.

Strength – Champion

We are going literal in our Korean movie that represents strength with “Champion”! In “Champion”, a Korean adoptee to America becomes a champion arm wrestler and decides to return to Korea to compete. There, he expects an easy victory in the arm wrestling championships, but what he doesn’t expect is discovering a sister that he didn’t know about. Will he have the strength to confront the family that abandoned him, along with proving his might in the Korean arm-wrestling championships? Have a look and let us know!

Power – The King

Who has all the power? In the hit box office movie “The King”, a man named Tae-su turns his criminal life around when he learns where the real power lies – as a prosecutor. However, after experiencing the extravagant life of the 1%, Tae-su soon comes to realize that men of the law might be much more dangerous than any life of crime. Enjoy the stellar acting of this star-filled cast, including Zo In Sung, Jung Woo Sung, Bae Seong Woo, Ryu Jun Yeol, Kim Eui Sung, Kim A Joong, Kim Min Jae, and Jeong Seong Mo, this weekend.
