Public Enemy

Public Enemy (공공의 적, 2002) is a South Korean crime thriller you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Kang Woo-suk with Sol Kyung-gu in the lead.

Detective Cho Chul-joong is dirty, unpredictable, and not above shaking people down for pocket money. He gets stabbed in a random street encounter and forgets about it. Then an elderly couple turns up murdered, and Cho recognizes something in the wounds. His suspect is a well-placed bank manager — polished, connected, legally untouchable. No hard evidence, no support from above. What Kang Woo-suk builds from there is less a police procedural than a collision between two men who operate entirely outside the rules. The film topped the Korean box office in 2002 and spawned two follow-up films. Stream Public Enemy online on iFILM.
