Old Boy is a Korean film and was directed by Chan-Wook Park. The film centres around a man called Oh Dae Su played by actor Choi Min-Sik. He plays a korean business man who is bailed out by a close friend Joo Hwan on a drunken night out on the day of his daughter's birthday. However, he goes missing as he has been captured and confined to a cell for 15 years. He then embarks on an emotional and thrilling journey to find his captor. The opening sequence is in keeping with the thriller conventions as it is very ambiguous and leaves many unanswered questions for the audience. Such as why was he kidnapped in the first place. It leaves the audience feeling the urge to watch on as it poses more questions that answers in the opening. it is quite confusing as it quite difficult to understand. However, its got a good ability of engaging the audience and making them watch on.
