Constable Hyung-rae and the Three Insect Muskateers (1990)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

Sol-i and Song-i head to Hanyang with the blueprint for a cannon invented by their father. On the way, they meet Japanese pirates and get captured, but Baek Du-geon appears and defeats the pirates and saves Sol-i and Song-i. Sol-i and Song-i arrive in Hanyang and hand over the blueprint to Hong Cham-pan, and Baek Du-gun and the three insect musketeers cause a commotion. Hong Cham-pan, who was handed the blueprint, works with the snake demon and tries to sell the blueprint to a Japanese spy (Miyamoto). Based on the popular segment 'Drumbeat from the Border' from KBS's Humor No. 1 at the time.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
