Staggering.

What does 'co-directed' mean?

The premise reminds me of this:

which a younger, but by no means young, Ghost and Tulkinghorn saw at the movie theatre that used to be at the top of the Mitsuwa (then Yaohan) shopping mall in Little Tokyo.

Production supposedly instigated by Chang because he was tired of seeing "fake wushia" movies and wanted to make something more authentic. But you're right, the plot in the trailer seems quite Japanese -- and the leading man is Korean, though I'm sure that's parrtly a marketing move.
