The movie, Around The World, is about 2 kids, ages 9 and 7, tackling the world with no sleep for 2 days while trying to save their dad, who is jailed in a police station. Tiger JK plays a street musician (Pil Hong).

When asked why he took part in the film, he said, “I love the concept. It’s just the kind of story we need in this cold world we live in,”
