Top 10 Korean Films of 2015

7. The Exclusive: Beat the Devil's Tattoo

Media manipulation features once more in the unfortunately name The Exclusive: Beat the Devil's Tattoo. Featuring plenty of chaotic humour (the kind you may remember from Bong Joon-ho’s films) yet presenting plenty of its own ideas and novelties, the film is a compelling sophomore outing for Very Ordinary Couple (2013) director Roh Deok. It didn’t do well in Korea, but that may have had more to do with the poor streak of its distributor Lotte Entertainment as reviews and viewer responses were mostly positive.
