Even before Netflix's newest hit, the tense relationship between South Korea and North Korea is ripe for dramatic storytelling, but it has also been used liberally in romance and sci-fi. However, the most engaging storytelling about the two countries often happens in the espionage genre. A new movie on Netflix, in which a South Korean agent and a North Korean agent clash in Russia, is emerging as a massive hit. The movie was directed by Ryoo Seung-wan, who, after working as an assistant to the legendary Park Chan-wook, made several films that dealt with geopolitical intrigue. His latest film was recently released on Netflix, following a theatrical run in Korea.
