Tae Gun-ho (Jeong Jae-yeong) is a badass in the classic
tough guy vein. Watching him in South Korean director Huh Jong-ho’s thriller
“Countdown”, you can’t help but be reminded of guys like Steve McQueen or Jack
Lord. He wears straight, simple suits, doesn’t say much, and doesn’t get
traditionally angry, but he’ll take you down regardless. And the man can
certainly fight with a high-powered tazer.
