I just finished watching this movie "MY WAY". My expression oh my god... awesome and i cried watching it. Although it may not be the same as "TAE GUK GI" but still in the same league. Jang Dong Gun is such a terrific actor and well i been always a big fan of Joe Ogadiri (an actor from Shinobi)... aweome and so so great. I know few media in Msia slammed and criticized the movie as being too much too hard trying to be Hollywood! But nah i saw those comments with green hahahaha.....
The plot is as such... In colonial era Seoul, 1938, two young men have had a strong sense of rivalry since they were young. Joon-sik (Jang Dong-gun) is a Korean man who dreams of following in the footsteps of Olympic marathon gold medal winner Sohn Kee-chung. Tatsuo (Joe Odagiri) is a top Japanese marathon runner and lived with Joon-sik as his family worked for Tatsuo's as servants. They grew up as rivals representing their respective countries.
One day, Joon-sik falls into trouble and is conscripted into the Japanese army. One year later, Joon-sik faces Tatsuo who is now a captain for the Japanese Imperial Army. The two young men are now caught in World War II and go through countless battles starting from Nomonhan, stretching from China, the Soviet Union and Germany, while inspiring hope in each other.
Seriously the friendship was great, despite no emphasize no melodrama etc but i felt it! Oh my god....
