About Poongsan Dog
Poongsan, whose real name is never revealed, is a mysterious messenger who crosses the demarcation line between the two Koreas, delivering letters and cherished heirlooms between separated families in Seoul and Pyongyang.

One day he is commissioned by South Korean government agents with the task of smuggling in In-ok, the beautiful lover of a high-ranking North Korean defector, into the South. Yet things take an unexpected turn when the deliveryman falls for the young woman, but their romance is put in jeopardy by the obstacles they encounter.
Japanese actor Odagiri Joe makes a cameo appearance in "Poongsan" as a North Korean soldier. Previously, Joe Odagiri worked with the film's writer & producer Kim Ki-Duk in his film "Dream". While filming "Dream," Joe Odagiri promised to appear in the next film directed by Juhn Jai-Hong who worked as a staff member on the set of "Dream". Opportunity arose while Joe Odagiri came to South Korea to act in the WWII film "My Way". During a break, Joe Odagiri travelled by car for 6 hours to Hwaseong City, a city in Gyeonggi Province, and spent 30 minutes on the set filming one scene as a North Korean border guard.
