The President's Barber: A simple man becomes an unwitting witness to some of the darkest and most corrupt days in recent Korean history in this satirical comedy drama. Song Gang-ho stars as Seong Han-mo, a barber whose shop is only a few blocks from the presidential palace in Seoul. Unfailingly loyal but not especially bright, Han-mo was born in 1961 as anti-government demonstrations by students were being met with police violence.
