      Audience Member Tough as Iron is a drama about a family trying to stay afloat. Gang Chul works at a fishery and makes income to take care of his ailing mother, while his best friend is a low level Yakuza gangster. When tragedy strikes, Gang Chul is blackmailed to pay a debt to the Yakuza and must perform a dangerous and almost suicidal hit. Throw in a small romance with a young woman with wanderlust, and you get one powerful drama. Not quite a crime thriller, Tough as Iron is sure to develop the characters before throwing in the conflict. The little romance with the young woman is the only schmaltzy part, but it manages to find a balance between the criminal underworld and the main character's quest for a normal life. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews
