Eight Korean films, including "Sympathy for Lady Vengeance" (directed by Park Chan-wook), have been invited to the 49th "The Times London Film Festival" (LFF) to be held in Britain from Oct. 20 to Nov. 4.

According to the list of films invited to this year's festival that was released on the LFF Secretariat's Web site ( Open the link ) on Sept. 15, "Sympathy for Lady Vengeance" was invited to the LFF's "Film on the Square" division and five Korean films were invited to the "World Cinema" division.

The five films invited to the "World Cinema" division are "Blood Rain" (directed by Kim Dae-seung), "Tale of Cinema" (directed by Hong Sang-soo), "Spying Cam" (directed by Hwang Cheol-min), "This Charming Girl" (directed by Lee Yoon-ki), and "Five Gazes".

"Five Gazes", a film featuring human rights, was invited to the LFF's "World Cinema" division long before the other Korean films were invited to the festival.

Meanwhile, "Missing Mr. Shin Sung-il", an independent film directed by Shin Jae-in, was invited to the LFF's "Experimentation" division, and the short animation film "Chohon" was invited to the "Short Cuts & Animation" division.

The LFF, which marks its 49th anniversary this year, is a prestigious international film festival where about 280 films from 60 countries are shown every year. "The Constant Gardener" (directed by Fernando Meirelles) has been selected as the opening film for this year's festival.
