There are countless incidents happening in one day. The corruption of the upper class discourages the common people who are living their lives diligently. From immorality to financial fraud, and they even commit a highly developed type of expedient. The victims of corruption are us, the common people. However, we have no choice but to be relieved that the victim is not me at least for this time. To turn the table, the best experts in each field have gathered! The former insurance investigator, Tae Joon, has a son who is terminally ill. To save his son, he accepts the deal which is extremely dangerous. And his life completely changes after that day. He organizes a team to get back at those corrupted rich people. With Su Kyung, Na Byeol, Roy, and Eui Sung, Tae Joon approaches to the conspiracy. Self-interest is rampant in our society, but through their journey to exposing the corruption, they begin to understand each other at the end.

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
