No Other Choice | Dir. Park Chan-wook | South Korea | 2025 | Comedy/Thriller | 139 mins
Cast: Lee Byung-hun, Son Ye-jin, Jeong Yu-yeon
After 25 years of loyal service at a paper mill, a devoted family man is made redundant by the company’s new American owners, who insist they had “no other choice.” Faced with an increasingly competitive job market, he adopts a drastic and highly unconventional strategy to secure his next role.
A wickedly funny satire of corporate culture, automation and modern working life, this darkly comic thriller follows one man’s increasingly absurd descent into chaos. Blending razor-sharp social commentary with pitch-black humour, it skewers the logic of a world where human beings are becoming as disposable as the jobs they once held.
