"Do Anh Can Cuff Me" was successively released through the Cannes Film Festival, Toronto International Film Festival, Fantastic Fest and released worldwide, receiving good reviews from global critics.

"I dare you to handcuff me" tells the story of the journey of detective Seo Do-cheol (Hwang Jung-min) and the major crime investigation team to solve the case. At that time, Korean society was experiencing many tragic cases, but the evil people were not properly punished by the law, which further aroused public outrage. Until the murderer Haechi "acted on behalf of heaven" by killing these evil people, and was immediately revered and supported by the public. But is it right to use evil to punish evil?
Faced with a serious case, Inspector Seo Do-cheol recruited Park Sun-woo (Jung Hae-in) to join his team to help solve the case. With the spirit of rushing to suppress criminals at the scene, young police officer Park Sun-woo became Inspector Seo Do-cheol's trusted assistant on all fronts. But Seo Do-cheol himself did not know that he was a pawn in the hands of a mysterious murderer who was secretly watching everything.
