Hong Sang-soo is a highly regarded director who is awarded at several film festivals. His awarded debut feature The Day a Pig Fell into the Well immediately gained him critical acclaim.
Hong explores human relationships in a complex pattern of relatedness and repetition. Usually the male psychology is central, but in his latest Woman on the Beach women roles are more prominent. Hong's films have not only fascinated film festivals and art house cinema audiences, but also attracted the attention of various scholars.
