I'll admit I'm cheating a little because this movie was made in 2006 however, it wasn't released and distributed in the United States until this year and since there haven't been any movies this year that harbor "iconic looks," I think it's about time to play the Cyborg card.
It's true that I'm a Cyborg, But That's OK is one of my favorite, if not my favorite, Korean movies of all time. Rather than being overdramatic, the film is just a little kooky and, for the most part, you can understand the character's motivations. See it as sort of a love story between the Chief and McMurphy in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.
The film is essentially about Korean Pop Star Rain and his struggles on how to help a girl, who thinks she's a Cyborg, get better. While at the same time, he's helping himself come out of his mental state. Though it's never clear why Korea Pop Star Rain was hospitalized, we get to know him as a carefree rabbit robot who steals souls and also as a normal person. The movie actually follows the female protagonist and her descent into robot-dom. However, her name is a bit complicated and Korean Pop Star Rain is so fun to write.
My favorite thing about this costume is that each character has an obvious look to them. If anyone has seen the movie then they will instantly recognize the cardboard bunny mask that Korean Pop Star Rain wears throughout the beginning of the movie of the movie. However, it's the little bow of hair that will make this costume genuinely unique. The female protagonist, Cha Young-goon, besides having guns for fingers, also has a very unique haircut that gives her character a standout crazy person look. I think there are added points to whoever can pull off her red factory outfit!
