**The Heart Killers** kicks things off with Kant, a tattoo artist pressured into spying on suspected contract killers — one of whom turns out to be his unforgettable one-night stand. It’s chaotic, funny, and surprisingly tense when it needs to be.

**The Lie We Lived In** flips the script: hitman Yi Do is ordered to keep his target alive, only for unexpected feelings to complicate everything when the target’s childhood friend mistakes him for family. The tension here is genuinely gripping.

**Sammy’s Children’s Day** sets its good-guy-meets-bad-guy story in 1980s Hong Kong, pairing a book-smart university student with the city’s most feared gangster — sword and all.

Meanwhile, **Spare Me Your Mercy** takes a quieter, creepier route, following a suspicious cop and the town doctor he can’t quite trust, and **Flower Boy** leans into fantasy, with a company heir falling for a mythical forest dweller with an irresistible scent.
