1/5 stars
Korean superstar Song Joong-ki jets off on his latest international adventure in director Kim Seong-je’s exasperating Bogota: City of the Lost.
The film chronicles the transformation of an impoverished Korean immigrant into a Colombian crime lord, but is painfully devoid of both crime and drama.
The long-delayed production opened to a muted reception at the 2024 Busan International Film Festival, while its future beyond the festival seems desperately uncertain.
After jaunts in Italy (for the K-drama series Vincenzo) and Belgium (for My Name is Loh Kiwan), Song now heads for South America, butchering another foreign language in the process.
