New World sits in that frustrating middle ground where it's competent enough to hold your attention but not quite good enough to stick with you. The premise is solid and the 7.5 IMDb score suggests real merit, but the mixed critical reception means you should only watch tonight if you're genuinely craving a morally murky crime thriller—otherwise, there's something better out there.

Plot

An undercover cop has his loyalties tested when the boss of the corporate gang he's spent years infiltrating dies.

Director: Park Hoon-jung

Cast: Lee Jung-jae, Choi Min-sik, Hwang Jung-min, Park Sung-woong, Song Ji-hyo
