Smugglers

The female divers of Haenyeo lost their jobs overnight when a chemical plant was built in the peaceful seaside town of Guncheon. Chun-ja is a fighter looking for a way to make a living.

It is said that you can make a lot of money just by lifting an object thrown into the sea. She learns about the world of smuggling and makes an attractive proposal to the leader of the Haenyeo, Jin-sook, who made a bold decision to make a living despite knowing that it was dangerous.

As she meets Sergeant Kwon, the national smuggling king, she falls in love with smuggling. Then one day, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to make a fortune arrives.

Smugglers plays like a heist film but the character development brings so much more to the table, and the film is exploding with energy.

This female-powered action adventure is a treat — from its novel subject to the swell cast including great white sharks in indispensable supporting roles.
