So I just watched The Swordsman (review is here) and watching this trailer, I'm inordinately amused that the concept is basically the same. 

To my eyes, The Killer is basically The Swordsman, just in modern times, with cars and guns. 😁 

In both stories, Jang Hyuk's character is a retired fighter/killer, now drawn out of retirement, in order to save a young girl in his care.

Of course, the main draw, in both shows, is Jang Hyuk himself, so no complaints there.

The Killer is slated for a 2022 release. No word yet on which streaming platforms it will be available on, and when.

KFG ❤️

Oh, my. What kind of perpetually effortlessly cool potion does Hyuk-i use? Share URL, please.

Watching the trailer again, and I'm like, hmm, somebody obviously watched John Wick a few times and got to thinking "what if John Wick, but Jang Hyuk?", and it all just snowballed from there. (To be clear, I have zero objections to this line of thought; this type of show if stylishly done with a great star, is like crack to moi...)

Haha! Side track but have you seem Keanu Reeves' extended cameo in Always Be My Maybe on Netflix? I really recommended the show, it's a rom com with two Asian American leads and is very funny. Anyway Keanu sends up himself and his "Keanu" new age persona and he is sporting the John Wick look as he was filming the third in the trilogy at the time.
