(SPOT.ph) A bunch of cops go undercover as operators of a fried chicken joint—only business starts booming and gets in the way of their OG goal to bust up a major drug ring. That is the totally surreal plotline of Extreme Job, the action-comedy flick that holds the title of second most-watched movie in South Korea. Around 14.5 million people flocked to the cinemas—in 2019 B.C. (Before COVID), don't worry—during its screening and now you can get in on the action when it streams on the Korean Cultural Center website from Friday, May 7, to Thursday, May 13. Best part? It's totally free.
