After Boss Jang dies, Kyeong Chul and Tae Yong manage to escape and hide in the Church of Angels and the Hidden Shrine, respectively, avoiding the eyes of the three-way gang. Kyeong Chul, who took refuge in the Church of Angels, which was ruined by a fraudulent pastor, is revered as a new pastor. Meanwhile, with the absence of the two leaders of the Wanggalbi gang, Park Kyeong Chul, the human butcher, and Lee Tae Yong, the head-butt, the three-way intersection traders engage in private loans and human trafficking. Cha Do Pil, a detective chasing two gangster organizations, loses a family member to In-seong of the three-way faction. Enraged at this, he proposes a temporary alliance to find Kyeong Chul and Tae yong and catch Hwang In Seong. A gangster pastor, a gangster monk, and a detective Park Soo Myeon's combined operation begins. (Source: HanCinema) Edit Translation

Reviews
Holy gangsters :)
It is said that spirituality should not be used for jokes, but sometimes that is justified. This film uses different religions and spiritualities in a very good way, for a joke, but also for inspiration. For a moment it may seem that the film makes fun of faith, but in fact it conveys the message that faith has its own strength and meaning, and the message that different faiths together give greater strength is also noble.The Korean title of the film is 목스박 which stands for 목사 (pastor), 스님 (monk) and 박수무당 (shaman), according to the three main characters who suddenly take on the roles of these holy figures leading to various funny and absurd situations. Since this is a family friendly action comedy after all, I am a little disappointed with the excessive use of curse words. The characters are just as crazy as they should be, to combine the comedy and the action for a fun watching experience. In some absurd way, this is a good movie about religious dialogue and cooperation.
