==Plot==
Set against the backdrop of the Japanese occupation of Korea in 1937, Modern Boy tells the story of Lee Hae-Myeong ([[Park Hae-Il]]), a government general who falls in love at first sight with the mysterious Jo Nan-Shil ([[Kim Hye-Soo]]) after watching her dance at a speakeasy cabaret with best friend Shunsuke ([[Kim Nam-Gil]]). Through sheer persistence, Hae-Myeong finally begins a passionate romance with Nan-Shil, but their union doesn't last for long when a package she hands him explodes inside a government building and disappears without a trace after stealing all of the valuables from Hae-Myeong's house. Still infatuated with the mysterious femme fatale, Hae-Myeong discovers the numerous identities she has lived under as well as the long list of suitors she has had in her life. Knowing that the further he pursues Nan-Shil, the deeper he will go into the rabbit hole, Hae-Myeong pushes on to find out what her true identity is.

==Notes==
# Modern Boy was originally set for release in April, 2008, but was delayed 6 months due to: 1.) several other Korean films in early 2008 were also set in the same 1930-40's period 2.) The filmmakers felt some scenes were rushed and subsequently re-shot those scenes during the 6 month delay.
# Most of the Gyeongseong station featured in the movie was created with CG effects.
