Hwan, Ryu, Noh, Jung and Gyu. Five people, no connections or previous knowledge of each other. The mysterious X asks these five people to steal an important document inside a bank, the reward too appealing to refuse despite the difficult mission. But beyond everything they have to go through, who is this X, orchestrating the pieces of this puzzle like a puppet master? The debut film of short film director Kim Tae Kyung, The Puzzle is not only interesting for its innovative marketing strategy, but earns points for the originality of its plot and its style itself, and is a worthy competitor for films of the genre released with much more fanfare.
