Man Jae at his brink of life, even sold his name to survive. In the world of ruthless barge where no one can trust, he held out a threadlike-life with a calculation ability. One day, he decides to retire for his soon to-be-born child and takes on the big final commission. The moment he thought that everything was going smoothly, he was framed for embezzlement of 100 billion won due to his unidentified 'investor' and faced his own obituary. A political consultant, Mrs. Shim, appears to Man Jae when he is trapped in a hellish private prison and lives as a 'dead man', offering a deal with his life as collateral. Man Jae accepts the offer to regain his name, family, and life (Source: HanCinema) Edit Translation

Live up to your Name

Wow. This is quality cinema. The story was in moments confusing for me so maybe i should watch it again, but it got me to think a lot. That is because the movie shows many layers of society and reality. You think that you understand what is going on but you are not aware of the play that is conditioning the main characters, and maybe even those who control him are unknowingly controlled and influenced by someone else.

The synopsis says that the main character Lee Man-jae sold his name to survive so this is not a spoiler. And throughout the move his name will have a central role of the story as he tries to get a hold of all the things that happened to him. What value does our name has? This movie shows that without your name you might be alive but you are actually dead.

In one moment the movie gives us a message that goes something like this: "Even if you haven't sinned, you have a sin because it is sin if you didn't do anything." I am not sure how this connects with the story of the movie so if someone can help I would appreciate it. Nevertheless, this is a strong and true statement that it is better to do something and fail (sin) than to not do anything.
