At the red carpet event of the film No Other Choice, at the New York Film Festival 2025, I got the opportunity to talk to Park Chan-wook and main star Lee Byung-hun about the genre-bending masterpiece they had created.

By far my favorite film at NYFF 2025, it cements the South Korean film industry as a new behemoth not only in commercial success, but critical as well.
