The Korea Foundation (http://www.kf.or.kr/) recently released an English translation of the book "Modern Korean Artists". The publication is a compilation of articles about contemporary artists from the quarterly magazine "Koreana" from 2000 to 2008 and lists various genres of Korean art from fine arts to Korean film.

Korea Foundation explains in its announcement that although Korea's contemporary art world can't be dealt with fully within a single volume, the book provides a close-up look at several key figures who have contributed to the advancement of the modern art scene in Korea.

The book is divided into five sections: visual art, performance, music, architecture and film. In the visual art section, 12 notable artists are introduced, including Park Soo-geun, Lee U-fan, Bae Bien-u and Park Seo-bo; in performance artists, Lee Ae-ju and Kang Soo-jin; in music, 10 musicians including Kim Duk-soo, Ahn Sook-sun, Jo Sumi and Chung Myung-hoon; in architecture, the three architects J...| More

"I wanted to stay free of any thoughts when filming 'The Executioner'", said Yoon Kye-sang, who is known for his hard work in Chungmuro. Yoon admits that he is hard on himself because he wanted to receive recognition for his acting skills. He said, "I wanted people to recognize me as an actor".

To Yoon, being known only as a former member of the idol boy band G.O.D. is great pressure. That is also the reason he rarely appeared on variety shows. He wanted to be known as an actor, not as an entertainer.

Yoon debuted on the big screen in 2004 in Byeon Yeong-joo's movie "Flying Boys". It has already been six years since his debut. Yoon says he has walked a difficult road because of young passion.

In 2004, G.O.D. was embroiled in a scandal over its contract with its agency. That was also when Yoon received a movie script through his agency. It was the script for "Flying Boys". Director Byeon attached no importance whatsoever to Yoon's top celebrity status back then and gave him thr...| More

Korean director JANG Kun-jae took home the Dragon and Tigers Award for his debut feature "Eighteen" at the Vancouver International Film Festival last week. The coming-of-age drama topped seven other titles in the international competition section.

On the jury were Noel Vera, Johnny Ray Huston and Ikeda Hiroyuka, who all praised the film for its impressive cinematography and smooth structure. Eighteen won the 16th annual Young Cinema award and a cash prize of $10,000.

The film revolves around an illicit romance. When Tae-Hoon takes a winter vacation to the seaside with his high-school girlfriend Mi-Jeong, her father goes through the roof and forbids them to meet again.

Other Korean films screening at the Vancouver fest include HONG Sang-soo's "Like You Know It All", BONG Joon-ho's "Mother - 2009", YANG Ik-joon's "Breathless", and the comedy "Castaway on the Moon".
