In-gu (SONG Kang-ho) is a kingpin in a dark world. However, he's the sweetest husband and dad, full of love for his family. In-gu's only goal in life is to build a picturesque house out in the country and live a gracious life with his family. But, there's a problem. In-gu's daughter, going through puberty, is embarrassed about her dad's occupation and stays away from him. And his wife nags him constantly to get a stable job. Nonetheless, In-gu tries even harder to keep his syndicate together, thinking that the only way to be a good dad is to work hard and bring home the bacon. However, in reality, family matters get in the way of his business. To make things worse, In-gu faces a power struggle against an ambitious underling. "The Show Must Go On" is the winner of the 28th Blue Dragon Film Awards for Best Picture.
This film is in Korean with English subtitles.
