The film is a Japanese original story set in the universe of the Korean \"Crime City\" series produced by and starring Ma Dong-seok. Directed by Eiji Uchida, the movie follows rookie detective Aiba Shiro (Mizukami) and Korean police detective Choi Si-woo (Yunho from TVXQ) as they pursue an international crime syndicate in Tokyo's Kabukicho district. Fukushi plays the syndicate boss Murata Renji, with Eom Gi-jun as his right-hand man Kim Hoon. In the video, Mizukami describes his character as someone who moves instinctively, while Uchida compares Aiba's headbutt ability favorably to Ma Dong-seok's. Yunho, making his Japanese film debut, discusses the importance of motivation behind action scenes. The film opens May 29 at TOHO Cinemas Hibiya and nationwide. First-run attendees will receive an original postcard from May 29 to June 4, while supplies last.","whyItMatters":"The video provides the first extended look at how the Japanese adaptation of a Korean blockbuster franchise builds its action identity around wire work and practical stunts rather than CGI.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eUchida described the approach to adapting the Korean franchise as \"not copying it directly, but renewing it as a Japanese original while preserving only the flavor as one new entry in the series,\" according to Cinema Today.

Mizukami said he \"tried to figure out how to embed pro wrestling techniques into the action without making them look like just pro wrestling moves.\"\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYunho, making his Japanese film debut, explained his action philosophy: \"I think the 'ma' between action beats is extremely important.
