What are the chances you can be interested in the plot ?
I think this movie is for really small circle of people.
First thought, it resembles the wolf of wall street. If you know you know.
I watched it in Korean with Spanish subs, as half conversations were in Spanish and I speak Spanish. I want to visit Bogota and love kdramas and one of my fav actors is Song Joong Ki - what were the chances of such combination!
On top of that, 1997-2008 - I used to live in Russia, I was a child, but I was aware of similar situation with goods, not sure from where, maybe from China. I cannot though confirm if what happened in the movie did happen in Bogota, Columbia, but it was similar in post-soviet era.
Interesting observation, I am not sure if I needed this flashback from my adolescence - there used to be a lot of similar movies in Russia, especially at the end of 90-s, about the period of wild capitalism and new market, which started after collapse of USSR. However, they usually had dark end for main leads. I didn't expect Guk Hui to survive.
I am glad Netflix aired the movie, I enjoyed it, though there were boring moments. I would give it 8/10, though I understand where current rating came from, as in this case I am not sure who was the targeted audience.
