Ryoo Seung-wan’s action thriller Veteran opened in 2015 as one of Korea’s most successful action blockbusters, generating over $94 million in worldwide box office receipts. Almost a decade later, the anticipated sequel Veteran 2: I, The Executioner brings its action-packed thriller back into theaters.
Hwang Jung-min and Jung Hae-in star as cops in this cat-and-mouse chase of a serial killer teasing the police investigators at every step.
Here is the official synopsis:
In Veteran 2: I, The Executioner, Detective Seo Do-cheol (Hwang Jung-min) and his major crimes unit decide to recruit young officer Park Sun-woo (Jung Hae-in) to track down a serial killer who has plunged the nation into turmoil. When the murder of a professor reveals connections to previous cases, suspicions around the serial killer become more intense as he publicly taunts the duo and their team by announcing his next victim.
