U.S. screenings for Won Bin’s The Man From Nowhere
by javabeans
The Man From Nowhere, the English title for Won Bin‘s latest movie, Ajusshi, will be screening nationwide in the U.S. in the month of October, and now’s your chance to see it.
The gritty thriller premiered in Korea in August and was a hit at the box office. Won Bin has taken his darkest role to date as a man with a bleak life and a hidden past, who has shut himself off from all contact with the world with the exception of a neighbor girl with whom he bonds. When she’s kidnapped, he goes after her gangster captors to rescue her.

I had a feeling it was not going to be shown in Sac. I was hoping at least San Francisco. We get no love in NorCal, just cause we don't have Koreatown. I don't think it's showing in Cupertino.

Not DC - Gaithersburg.
::screams of agony:: DC I could get to by Metro - Gaithersburg on the 15th, not a chance in a million.
Color me angry that they are showing it on a screen in Gaithersburg instead of downtown at someplace like the Union Station 9 (not to insult anyone in the Rockville/Gaithersburg area, I have many fine friends there, it's just NOT DC). On the upside, they are giving it 4 showings....none of which I can get to.

"Gaithersburg on the 15th, not a chance in a million."
Especially since it's on a Friday. If only they chose a closer theatre, I really want to see it but going through hours of DC traffic to get to Maryland is a little...

did they say anything about subtitles?
my korean friend took her american husband to watch Haeundae when it was showing in the US (at the Cupertino location), but he ended up watching it confused because there weren't any subtitles....

Not to be picky...but neither of the Chicago locations are actually in Chicago. They are both in the outlining suburbs :( which sucks...but it's not convient to get to either location using public transportation. But, there is a higher Korean American population in the outlining suburbs than the city so i can understand the decision...but i don't like it :(

Oh, well it looks like it's also showing in Canada, not just the U.S. seeing as it's showing in Toronto and Vancouver.
I'm definitely going to watch it :D
P.S. It's Yonge* and Dundas.

If you are in Los Angeles, you can see it now (with English subs). It's playing at the CGV Theater on Western just a 1/2 block north of Wilshire on the west side of the street.
I checked it out this past Saturday, 10/3, and it is a well put together film. It is not for the faint of heart. If you don't like violence in your films, this one will not be for you. Enjoy, I know I did.
