They Still Call Me Bruce

In the neon‑lit streets of a bustling American city, Bruce Won arrives with a single, heartfelt purpose: to locate the U.S. GI who once saved his life during the Korean War and to offer a token of gratitude. His quiet determination sets a tone that blends reverence for the past with a restless curiosity about his new surroundings. The city itself feels larger than life, a mosaic of cultures and subcultures where every corner promises a new encounter, and Bruce’s earnest quest immediately places him at the crossroads of gratitude and adventure.

Almost as soon as he steps off the plane, Bruce’s presence catches the eye of the city’s most vicious gang, whose reputation looms over the neighborhoods like a shadow. Rather than bow to intimidation, he meets the challenge with a mix of humor and resolve that hints at a deeper resilience. Along the way, he befriends an orphan boy, Billy, whose sharp wit and eager spirit quickly turn a chance meeting into a meaningful mentorship. Their budding partnership is punctuated by encounters with a local karate studio, where a case of mistaken identity crowns Bruce as a martial‑arts master, setting the stage for an absurdly public showdown that promises both spectacle and comedy.

The film balances kinetic action with off‑beat humor, inviting viewers into a world where cultural differences spark both conflict and camaraderie. Its tone is unapologetically playful, underscored by sincere moments of connection that anchor the chaos. As Bruce navigates gang bravado, unexpected alliances, and the weight of his own memories, the story teases the promise of an unforgettable clash—one that will test his newfound friendships and the quirky resolve that defines his journey.
