A Company Man

Starring Ji-seob So as a hitman who works for a company hell bent on eliminating him as a matter of policy for sparing the life of a new employee, Korea's A Company Man is an interesting enough action-drama, having an almost Shakespearean, cautionary tale, kind of a feel to it.  However, the story could have benefited from more fleshing out of the characters, particularly in building a more substantial romance with So's character to raise the stakes of the plot.  Maybe I'm thinking this, because it's very much in a way like a more serious Mr. & Mrs. Smith.
