"The Treacherous" is a 2015 South Korean historical thriller film directed by Lee Suk-hoon. The movie is set in the late 16th century during the Imjin War and revolves around the story of a Korean general who defects to the Japanese army.

To flesh that out: The film stars (famous for Kingdom and Princess Hours ) as Im Sung-jae, a corrupt minister navigating the reign of the notoriously unstable King Yeonsan (played with terrifying mania by Kim Kang-woo ).
