SeoBok, the first clone to be endowed with eternal life, is the target of several organizations who either want to kidnap or destroy him. Ki Heon, a former secret agent with an incurable disease, accepts the perilous mission of protecting him, and is gradually won over by SeoBok’s humanity.
Promethean scientific experiments, governmental finagling, a determined traitor... All the ingredients are gathered to make SeoBok an ideal sci-fi film. Lee Yong-ju efficiently alternates action sequences and intimate moments, and also wanders successfully into melodrama. The existential questions infuse a strange melancholy, also expressed in SeoBok’s eyes, a Korean cousin to Stranger Things' Eleven.
