But what is it about this specific South Korean thriller that continues to captivate the Indian audience? The answer lies in a potent cocktail of stylistic violence, a narrative structure that mirrors Bollywood’s love for revenge sagas, and a level of brutality that Indian cinema rarely permits.

He captures, tortures, and releases Kyung-chul, engaging him in a perverse game of cat-and-mouse.
