LIKE A VIRGIN

천하장사 마돈나likeavirgin1
*North American Premiere*

2006, 116 minutes
Directors: Lee Hae-joon, Lee Hae-young
Cast: Ryoo Deok-hwan, Baek Yoon-sik, Lee Sang-ah and Kim Yoon-seok

Oh Dong-gu is going to be a model-perfect woman and the fact that he’s currently a stumbling, pudgy man isn’t going to stop him. To pay for his sex change surgery, the Madonna-impersonating Oh does the only farcically responsible thing he can do: he enters a wrestling competition.
