THE FOUL KING is a South Korean comedy in which an office worker decides to become a professional wrestler.

violence
During wrestling matches, a wrestler is stabbed with a fork and another's face is punched in scenes accompanied by blood spurts. A prolonged bout includes use of improvised weapons (for example, a metal chair) as well as repeated blows which result in fighters becoming increasingly cut and bloodied.
language
The film contains strong language ('f**k') and milder terms (for example, 'son of a bitch', 'bastard', 'shit', 'asshole', 'hell', 'damn', 'jerk', 'God').
additional issues
There are scenes of threat, including some involving a street gang, and there are also foot chases resulting from these confrontations. A man opens a locker and a briefly glimpsed pin-up photograph on the inside of the door features a woman with her breast exposed. A wrestler takes an unidentified pill before a fight. There are also mild sex references, and scenes in which adults smoke cigarettes and drink alcohol.
