After a long hiatus, I'm actually looking forward for a new movie/drama from Won Bin. And when I find out about Man From Nowhere, I didn't miss a chance to watch this movie.

Cha Tae Sik (Won Bin)is a mystery man who lead a quiet life and own a pawn shop. His neighbor is the girl, So-mi and her heroin addict mother, Hyo-Jeong. The mother smuggles drug from the drug trafficking organization and later murdered by them. So-mi was kidnapped and become one of the kids who work for the drug dealer. This is when we Tae Sik (turn out to be an ex-special agent CHA) deal with the drug dealer in order to save So-mi.

I don't want to go details about the storyline. What I want to highlight is the relationship between Tae Sik and So-mi. That's the part I enjoy the most about this film. You will find the relationship between Tae Sik and So-mi wonderful and heartwarming. It makes me cry when So-mi say "it's okay if the fat boy at school say I'm a Garbage but for you (Tae Sik)to ignore me it's really hurt in here (heart), I don't want to hate you because if I do, then there's no person in this world that I love" The ending also for sure will make everyone cry.

It's a good film and is worth watching especially to Won Bin fan (But there are scenes that you may find it so cruel and disturbing ). And you will definitely love the cute So-mi. She's one great actress.
