Fate (Hangul: 숙명; RR: Sukmyeong) is a 2008 South Korean action noir film.
Gang members Woo-min, Cheol-jung, Do-wan and Yeong-hwan are close friends, who, with the help of older gang member Gang-seop, decide to rob a casino so they can start their lives over. But Cheol-jung betrays the others, and Woo-min ends up in prison. After serving his time, Woo-min tries to stay out of trouble, but finds himself drawn back into the underworld.
Before filming was complete, the Japanese distribution rights to Fate were presold to Formula Entertainment for US$2 million, a relatively high sum due to Kwon Sang-woo's Korean Wave fanbase.
The film was not a big success, selling only 858,215 tickets nationwide.
