[HanCinema's Film Review] "Mother" + Giveaway
2013/11/16
I noticed during the ending credits that, before getting to the traditional list of all cast members and character names, this film goes out of its way to describe its main character simply as Mother (played by Han Hye-sook). The woman has a name, of course, and it's mentioned in the subsequent actual credits sequence- but it's appropriate that she is initially described in this limited way, since in the context of the film, that's all she really is. Just a mother. Most of this movie can be easily described as just being about the daily everyday adventures of a mother and her son as they go about their everyday lives,...More

"The King: Eternal Monarch", "When My Love Blooms" and "Born Again" Bring Fresh Romance to the Home Screens This Spring
2020/04/16, Source
New romance dramas such as "The King: Eternal Monarch", "When My Love Blooms" and "Born Again" are coming to viewers. With the previous romance series "I'll Visit You When the Weather Is Nice", "Meow, the Secret Boy" and "A Piece of Your Mind" posting poor ratings, attention is being paid to the performance of new dramas in the future. JTBC's Monday-Tuesday drama "I'll Visit You When the Weather Is Nice" starring actors Park Min-young and Seo Kang-joon is as low as 2% (Nielsen Korea) since its first broadcast in February. The same is true of KBS 2TV's Wednesday-Thursday series "Meow, the Secret Boy" starring actors Kim Myung-soo and Shin Ye-eun. It started at 3.6% last month, but the latest episode aired showed 1.6% as it suffered a decline. TvN's Monday-Tuesday drama "A Piece of Your Mind" featuring actors Jung Hae-in and Chae Soo-bin, recorded a low 1% viewership, which eventually brought about the decision to end the show early from 16 to 12 episodes,...More

Why Kim Hye-soo and Jeon Do-yeon are so precious
2015/06/08, Source
Kim Hye-soo and Jeon Do-yeon are actresses in their 40s. In the Korean movie industry, for an actress to be in her 40s means she's no longer the main act. Movies take up a big part of the culture but it's also an industry where one can only survive if profits are made from investments. Therefore, cinematic quality, completion, influence on the public and cultural values are outweighed by the success of the movie. Choi Min-sik, Kim Yun-seok, Ryu Seung-ryong, Lee Byung-hun, Ha Jung-woo and other actors in their 40s have been successful with their movies. Screenplays are focused on them and actresses didn't get as much attention as they did before,...More

Youn Yuh-jung, "Being an actress is selfish"
2015/03/30, Source
"A drama features everything I do because we have no time and everyone is in a hurry. But movies go through editing. It's something known as the producer's work of art. Editing cuts out some parts of my acting. I guess that's to intensify the story. I asked producer Kang Je-gyu why he cut out good parts of my acting. I almost held him by the collars (laughs)". Actress Youn Yuh-jung said this when we asked her how she liked the movie. She played the role of Geum-nim in the movie "Salut D'Amour". She falls in late romance with the bad-tempered Seong-chil (Park Geun-hyung) living next door to her. There's a reason why she sees him and that's the twist.

Despite the release of DreamWorks Animation's "Turbo" and the latest comic book film "The Wolverine", it was "Red 2" that managed to remain Korea's film of choice. Director Dean Parisot's "Red 2" claimed 666,048 admissions (25.9%) in its second weekend out, holding off a host of challengers to round out the month of July in good condition. In addition to these two Hollywood features getting stuck in, this week will also see two mammoth Korean films go head-to-head for the summer crowds and crown. Bong Joon-ho's "Snowpiercer" and Kim Byeong-woo's "The Terror Live" are both officially released on August 1st, with the latter having already scored a sneaky 122,762 (4.9%) admissions.

[HanCinema's Film Review] End of Animal
2013/03/30
Jo Sung-hee received much praise for his 2010 directorial debut "End of Animal" which made its international debut at the 29th Vancouver International Film Festival. Critics and viewers alike lauded this gritty post-apocalyptic fantasy horror both locally and abroad - marking the young filmmaker's successful entry into the competitive Korean film market. His second feature, the fantasy romance film "Werewolf Boy" (2012), was a box office hit, clawing in almost seven million admissions at the end of last year. "End of Animal" has been on my list of films to watch since its eerie poster cross my path. Perhaps it was my own personal taste in the darker side of the screen, as I enjoy the more cynical and shadowy dimension of cinema. It is for this reason that I can say that Jo Sung-hee's "End of Animal" pleased me greatly,...More

If you had asked me five years ago about Korean cinema I would not have been able to name a single film, let alone any actors, directors, or anything close to the mark. Korean cinema in all its richness and fluidity was unknown to me and its riveting array of melodramas, thrillers, and comedies were well clear of my cinematic radar. Then, in 2007, I had my first taste of it when I came to Seoul on a brief two-week trip. In a dark and crowded apartment, I took up the chance to watch an unknown Korean horror titled "Red Eye", and that marked my first step towards becoming a true Korean cinephile,...More
