West 32nd
| |
John Cho’s coming back! With Grace Park and Jane Kim in the upcoming movie West 32nd. Written by Michael Kang, a Korean American filmmaker based in New York. West 32nd is touted as a dark, urban thriller. Straight from Michael’s Xanga blog:
After hustling his way onto a homicide case, an ambitious young lawyer (John Cho) infiltrates the gritty Korean underworld of New York, searching for clues. When he meets his match in the syndicate, they’ll both do anything to get to the top. It’s a raw and thrilling race. In English and Korean.
Not only do you get to see the MILF guy, I mean Harold, I mean Karin Anna Cheung’s motorcycle-riding boyfriend – but you’ll also get the sweet melodies of all these Asian musicians:
- Far East Movement
- Heather Park
- Big Phony
- Emi Meyer
- Ill Again
- Chops
- Rookadamus
- Kaila Yu
- Justin Fong from At Last
- Red Team Go
- Kiyoshi Graves
- Woody Pak
How can you go wrong with a cast and soundtrack like this?
