The first one is the best possible 'taken-like' movie you can find, and then he starts making his movies more and more complexe (very interesting filmmaker that may become a legend) Na Hong-Jin considering the 3 excellent movies he made ( The Chaser, The Yellow Sea, and The Wailling). There are other directors who deserve to be named : Kim Jee-Woon (responsible for I Saw the Devil, A Bittersweet Life, The Good the Bad the Weird) I would consider this one the least interesting of the 3, but he still deserve this place.

Park Chan-wook (responsible for the vengeance trilogy, The Handmaiden, Thirst, Joint Security Area mainly).
