SYNOPSIS:
 
Kubozka stars as Sugihara, a Japan-born North Korean who's lived in Japan his whole life. Enrolled in an indoctrinating North Korean school, he decides to switch to being South Korean, which is a choice that comes with consequences. Some of his former friends now consider him a traitor, and his new classmates at a Japanese school don't take kindly to him either.

Luckily, Sugihara can fight his way out of any circumstance since his father (Tsutomu Yamazaki) was a professional boxer and has made sure to teach his son the pugilistic arts. Dad also uses boxing to discipline his son, meaning any and all punishments are handled via some swift uppercuts and perhaps some lost teeth. The only seemingly positive aspect to Sugihara's life is the appearance of Sakurai (Kou Shibasaki), a lovely Japanese girl who becomes his first girlfriend. However, he hesitates to tell her his Korean roots, as he fears this may alienate her. And, more to the point, is it even necessary to tell her?
