Day 13 - Fly, Daddy, Fly

"Jang Ga-Pil is an ordinary middle-aged father, who works as a salaryman. One day, he returns home to learn that he his teenage daughter was assaulted by a group of guys at a karaoke bar. The group of thugs is led by box star Kang Tae-Wook, whose father is a powerful congressman. Jang Ga-Pil has little hope of gaining justice due to his modest background. He then concocts a plan to stab the young box star on his way to school. "--AW

A really nice film with great actors, it had a slightly sad tone when he learns about what happened to his daughter but eventually he gets the courage to take revenge with his own hands. It was a get set up though I wish there was more and a little more depth as I believe some of the music was ill chosen. My hat goes off to Lee Moon-Sik for his wonderful performance that really sold this film for me.
