In a country without a nation, bullets write history.

Set during the Japanese occupation of Korea, this historical thriller follows a group of resistance fighters on a high-stakes mission to eliminate key targets aiding colonial rule. With gripping action sequences, intricate betrayals, and strong character development, 'Assassination' captures the intense struggle for Korea’s independence while shedding light on lesser-known historical figures.

Once Upon a Time in Gyeongseong – where resistance meets noir.
