It was a Korean mob/gangster movie set/filmed in Korea town/Flushing, Queens, New York City. Produced back in 2007 I believe, and starring the Korean/Korean American guy who is in the Harold and Kumar movies.

I haven't been able to find it in my neighborhood norae bong/DVD shops. Likewise on the P2P sites I've tried. Anybody come across it anywhere?

its pretty much been shown only at film festivals. I don't think there is a dvd of it.

There is apparently a german torrent out there, but it seems dead on all sites. Someone may have gotten a copy from a german film festival..but the audio is listed as german and korean.
I didn't think they dubbed for film festivals..

The official website, myspace, etc are all dead. Extremely unlikely this film will ever see the light of day again...

I managed to get this off usenet. You have a choice between German or Korean language, but Korean seems to be original audio, there seems to be plenty of english. Problem is no english subs for the Korean.
Looking for those now..

oddly enough pathfinder entertainment has a non-working buy on amazon link, a UPC and a price...

Implying there was a north american release.
but I can't find it on there...

Nice work, crossmr. It is nice to see people using this site in the proper way (to help each other) and not to bash each other or others. There is hope for Dave's after all.

I was actually interested in this awhile ago. The post motivated me to grab some binary usenet access and hunt it down. Subtitles are a bust, it includes german subtitles, but I don't know how many people that will help. I don't know how much Korean there is, but if you can watch it with a Korean who speaks english well you might be okay for those parts.

All I've managed to get is a DVD image, no rip.
