It's COPS vs. (Cop pretending to be a) ROBBER in this acclaimed comedy from Korea. Sam-po is a small town with a major problem. Its banks are increasingly targeted by armed robbers, and local law enforcement's efforts to address the issue have been nonexistent. Incoming police chief LEE Seung-woo (SON Byung-ho, The Good, The Bad, The Weird) initiates an ambitious plan to send a message to the criminals and win the confidence of the townspeople. Every member of his force will participate in a ''Bank Robbery Simulation'' - unscripted training involving bank personnel and customers, plus a lone cop playing the role of the crook. And the new chief thinks he knows the right man for the job...by-the-book patrolman JUNG Do-man (JUNG Jae-young, Moss) is dismayed to find he has been personally selected for this role. But when the dedicated officer is told to ''do his best,'' what was meant to be a simple role-playing exercise quickly spirals into a nationally televised event!
