Here is a list of the top Korean movies in 2022
The Pirates: The Last Royal Treasure
This 2014 hit movie remake and sequel follows a new band of daring antiheroes in Korea in the fourteenth century. Pirate captain Hae-rang and her crew save self-styled “good bandit” Wu Mu-chi and his men when they become stranded in the middle of the ocean.
The two groups join forces to recover a map of a stolen royal treasure after coming up against a mercenary squad led by the antagonist Bu Heung-soo (Kwon Sang-woo).
Spiritwalker
Yoon Kye-sang of The Outlaws portrays Kang I-an, a man whose consciousness shifts into a different body every twelve hours, in this new mystery thriller that has just arrived on U.S. streamers.
I-an, a skilled fighter, must piece together his identity after waking up from a car accident with no memory while evading numerous assailants on both sides of the law who want to kill him.
Love and Leashes
Seohyn from Girls’ Generation and Lee Jun-young from U-KISS are two idol actors who appear in this romantic comedy about coworkers who want to form a BDSM partnership.
Ji-woo unintentionally receives Ji-package, hoo’s, which contains a dog collar the size of a human, just as she is starting to develop feelings for him. She starts to get interested in BDSM instead of freaking out, and Ji-hoo asks her to start a dominant/submissive relationship.
Yaksha: Ruthless Operations
This action thriller starring Park Hae-soo from Squid Game and Jin-young from GOT7 is set in a city in northeastern China and features a spy-against-spy conflict.
Han Ji-hoon (Park), a former chief prosecutor, was recently demoted to a position as a legal aid with Korea’s National Intelligence Service (NIS). He becomes entangled in a world where spies from the north, the south, China, Japan, Russia, and even the US wage war over state secrets while working in a city close to the North Korean border. Sol Kyung-gu portrays the title character, Yaksha, a cunning NIS agent who enlists Ji-hoon for his team.
Midnight
In this 2021 thriller that has just gone on VOD in the United States, Wi Ha-jun played a deranged serial killer before he played a heroic cop in Squid Game.
The most recent victim of Do Shik’s crimes is Kyung Mi (Jin Ki-joo), a young deaf woman who lives with her deaf mother (Kil Hae-yeon) and watches him murder another person. The original thriller uses sound mixing and sign language to show how the main character, Kyung Mi, eludes the assailant’s pursuit while telling the tale from Kyung Mi’s point of view.
