Coping with a dreadful boss who revels in making your professional life a harrowing experience is always a horrid situation. But when the CFO of your thriving business readily admits to authorities that he embezzled millions of dollars from the company, and he can’t afford to pay it pay, your entire existence is about to become even more disastrous. Actor Shane Yoon is compellingly contending with that appalling situation in his new comedy, ‘Ktown Cowboys.’ To showcase his character’s extreme misfortune, Shockya has an exclusive clip from the film, titled ‘Company Crisis.’
‘Ktown Cowboys,’ which is based on the successful web series of the same name, was produced and directed by Daniel Park. The helmer also contributed to the film’s story with actor Bobby Cho, as well as with Brian Chung and Jeff Hoffman. The movie, which was executive produced by Ken Jeong, who appeared as himself in the comedy, also features Sunn Wee, Peter Jae and Daniel Dae Kim.
Self-described as a bro-mantic dramedy, ‘Ktown Cowboys’ follows a group of hard-partying friends who are wrestling with their evolution into adulthood. As their individual struggles come to light, the group of friends band together in Koreatown. Through late nights at seedy after-hour soju bars, karaoke drinking girls and even a stint in jail, each emerges as a better version of himself.
The comedy had its world premiere at last year’s SXSW during the Narrative Spotlight Section. Freestyle Digital Media is set to distribute ‘Ktown Cowboys,’ which is now playing in select theaters nationwide, on VOD, including on DIRECTV, XBOX, Sony Playstation, Vudu, Dish, Amazon and iTunes, on Friday.
