Whale

New

In the devastated post-war Korea, enterprising Kymbok builds a brick factory with the money of a stingy old woman — the foundation of her future empire, where the fates of a port giant, a one-eyed queen of bees, and a... loving yakuza will tragically intertwine. But when the grand cinema in the shape of a whale, the crown of her creations, burns to the ground in a fire that claimed the lives of over eight hundred people, everything changes. In the dock, her daughter — the mute giantess Chunhi, whose only friend is a talking circus elephant. But who is the criminal really? Perhaps behind the most terrible tragedy in the city's history lies the ghost of an ugly old woman, whose curse seems to pursue everyone who has touched her mysterious money?..
