From the filmmakers of the international hits HAEUNDAE (TIDAL WAVE) and SECTOR 7 (7??, Chil gwanggu, 2011) comes a non-stop motorbike action adventure. Former motorcycle gang member Ki-su makes a living as a bike messenger. One day, he escorts a female singer to a TV station. As she puts a bike helmet on her head, a timer mechanism is triggered and a countdown clock appears. Ki-su gets a call from a stranger telling the helmet is booby-trapped and will blow up if he fails to make a series of deliveries within a fixed time limit. With the police hot on his trail, he races against time to complete his last mission. The QUICK Blu-ray includes "The Making of QUICK" featurette, theatrical trailer, CGI featurette, stunt featurette, and a look at the creation of the movie poster. The suggested retail price is $26.97 SRP. The DVD edition includes "The Making of QUICK" featurette and the theatrical trailer, and has a suggested retail price of $19.93. Both the Blu-ray and DVD editions boast English and Korean audio tracks, plus English subtitles.
