OLDBOY Star Choi Min-Sik Swaggers Through The Trailer For NAMELESS GANGSTER
Oldboy's Choi Min-sik is, quite simply, an absolutely fabulous actor frequently rendered even more fabulous by his hair. His frizzy mane in Oldboy is an obvious example but the long flowing locks of I Saw The Devil are another obvious argument in favor of the 'More hair equals better Choi' argument.

Cue up Yun Jong-Bin's Nameless Gangster (aka The War Against Crime). Nameless Gangster is only Choi's third leading role since 2005 - he stepped away from the industry in 2006 to protest changes to the screen quota system - and, oh yes, it features plenty of hair.

Ik-hyeon is a corrupt customs officer who lives off bribes paid by the contraband smugglers. One day, after his financier rats him out, Ik-hyeon is visited by the inspector and faces losing his job. He runs into a group of armed criminals while on patrol and recovers a large lump of heroin. To sell off the drug, Ik-hyeon hooks up with Hyeong-bae who has connections with the Yakuza. He finds out that his liaison is related to him and quickly a partnership is formed; Hyeong-bae helps out Ik-hyeon set up a new business with the drug money, while Ik-hyeon lobbies for his partner through his family connection. However, the partnership turns sour over dealings with a rival organization. Soon after, the government declares war on crime and Ik-hyeon decides to take the opportunity to set up his partner and escape the tightening grip of the law enforcement.
Will this one prove the hair theory correct once again? The first teaser has just arrived with a resounding "YES!" Slick, stylish and surprisingly funky Nameless Gangster could very well be the Korean movie to beat in 2012. Check it out below.
