About This DVD
Taiwanese actress Shu Qi leads the cast of the highly anticipated action comedy
My Wife is a Gangster 3. Released in 2001, the first My Wife is a Gangster,
starring Shin Eun Kyung as a tough female gang leader, was a big hit in Korea,
selling over five million tickets. Shin reprised her role for the sequel, My
Wife is a Gangster 2, but the film failed to take off at the box office despite
a high-profile cameo appearance by Zhang Ziyi. The series was originally meant
to continue with Shin and Zhang facing off in a third film, but both actresses
eventually opted out, paving the way for a franchise facelift and a much needed
narrative kick.
My Wife is a Gangster 3 now features a completely new story with a completely
new cast. Shu Qi steps into the lead role opposite the always interesting Lee
Bum Soo (The City of Violence) and a solid supporting cast, including Oh Ji Ho
(Super Rookie), Shaw Brothers actor Ti Lung, Hong Kong action film regular Ken
Lo, and actress Hyun Young (The Legend of Seven Cutter) who provides much of the
film's laughs. Director Cho Jin Kyo, who also helmed the first installment of
the series, approached the story and his international cast with a refreshing
new formula this time around, modeling My Wife is a Gangster 3 into a Roman
Holiday action comedy.
Chinese-Korean Aryong (Shu Qi) gets sent to South Korea to lay low by her triad
leader father who is engaged in a bloody power struggle in Hong Kong. In Korea,
Aryong meets kindhearted gangster Ki Chul (Lee Bum Soo) who, unaware of her
identity, tries to protect her from the legions of thugs hunting her down.
Little does he realize, Aryong is more than capable of defending herself.
