Film 838: I Saw the Devil
Trivia: The film marks Choi's
first major role since his self-imposed exile over his protest of the Korean
screen quota system. It also reunites Lee with Kim who have worked together in
the past on films such as A
Bittersweet Life.
The Korea Media Rating Board
forced Kim to recut the film for its theatrical release, objecting to its
violent content. Otherwise, the film would have gotten a "Restricted"
rating, preventing any sort of release in theaters or on home video.
