Carter is a high-octane Korean action-thriller directed by Jung Byung-gil, known for The Villainess. The film follows the story of Carter Lee (played by Joo Won), who wakes up in a blood-soaked motel room in Seoul with no memory of his past and a cross-shaped scar on the back of his head. CIA agents arrive, demanding information about Dr. Jung Byung-ho's whereabouts. With no recollection of his identity or the doctor, Carter is guided by a mysterious voice in his ear, instructing him to escape and embark on a perilous mission. The mission involves rescuing a kidnapped girl named Ha-na (Kim Bo-min), the daughter of renowned biologist Dr. Jung, who holds the key to a cure for a deadly virus spreading across North Korea and the United States. As Carter navigates through intense combat and high-stakes situations, he uncovers shocking truths about his past and the global conspiracy surrounding the virus. Wikipedia+1
