For me my best korean movie till date is titled IILJIMAE: THE PHANTOM THIEF
NOTE: It is different from another movie titled *THE RETURN OF IILJIMAE*
Lee Gyeom (Lee Joon-gi) is the
son of a virtuous nobleman Lee
Won-ho, a trustworthy supporter
and brother to the king and a
central member of the secret
organization Cheonwoohoe,
composed of important nobles
and with the king as their leader.
He lives peacefully in a house
with many plum trees with his
wife, daughter, and son.
However, the king has a
conversation with a blind
fortunes teller. Looking at Lee
Won-ho's home, the blind man
states that he sees a person who
is as bright as the sun, and will
be adored by the people. The
king kills Lee Won-ho as he
believes that 'two suns cannot
exist on the same sky'. Gyeom
witnesses the incident from the
inside of a safe where his father
hid him. Later, he is saved and
adopted by a retired thief, Swe
Dol, after he becomes stricken
with amnesia due to the shock of
losing his father and being
forced to throw a rock at his
mother's head to prove that he
was not the son. 13 years later,
Gyeom, now called Yong, starts to
regain his memories and begins
to search for his older sister,
Yeon, only to see her being
sentenced and hanged.
The murder of his older sister
leaves Gyeom seeking revenge.
With the emblem on the killer's
sword he remembers from 13
years ago his only clue, he
swears that he will find the one
who killed his father and
murdered his older sister. To find
the sword and its owner, he
disguises himself as Iljimae and
breaks into the nobles' estates.
[Iljimae is a mysterious, black-
swathed thief who robs corrupt
government officials and gives to
the poor. He steals not only
material treasures but also
people, be they wrongfully held
prisoners or criminals hiding
from judgment. At the scene of
each robbery, he leaves a small
painting of a branch of red plum
blossoms called a "mae hwa".
(His name reflects this act: il
means "one", ji means "branch"
and mae means "plum tree".) The
citizens support Iljimae while the
king and the nobility try to catch
him and find his identity.] During
the course of his actions, he
winds up fighting not only for
himself, but also for the people;
and so he becomes a fighter for
the common people, jumping
into action whenever the people
are oppressed and wrongly
exploited for the sake of the
nobles, thus becoming adored by
the people and one villager goes
far enough to state "He is our
sun!". At the core of his motives
though, he still desires to find the
person who destroyed his family,
and bring justice to them.

Lee Joon-gi as Gyeom/Yong/
Iljimae - A no-good, lazy
gangster by day but a
mysterious thief who protects
the citizens when the night
comes.
Han Hyo-joo as Eun Chae - A
lovely and kind girl of noble
birth who seems to be fated
both for and against Gyeom.
Lee Young-ah as Bong Soon -
A funny, silly swindler who
was orphaned as a girl and
also is connected to Gyeom's
past.
Park Si-hoo as Cha Dol/Shi Hoo
- Once a poor boy, he was told
at the age of nine that his
father was actually his
adopted father. He is sent to
his "real father", Magistrate
Byun Shik, and becomes Eun
Chae's half-brother and an
Imperial Guard. However,
Magistrate Byun Shik is not his
real father. He and Iljimae have
the same real birth father, Lee
Won Ho. His dream is to catch
Iljimae so that he can finally
become a nobleman.
