Korea's famous animated character Robot Taekwon V and local toymaker Sonokong have joined forces.
On September 29, Sonokong (Chairman: Choi Shin-gyu) and Robot Taekwon V (President: Shin Cheol) announced a strategic alliance, with the former taking part in the Taekwon V Project centered on the 18 billion-won blockbuster film 'Robot Taekwon V' (working title) as a partner for toy development and licensing.

The industry says the combination live-action/animated film 'Robot Taekwon V' got a boost from the partnership. The film is scheduled for release in the second half of 2010.

Sonokong, under the guidance of Chairman Choi Shin-gyu, set a record of selling 15 million units of Top Blade, a computer game presenting a modern take on Pang-i, the traditional Korean spinning top. President Shin Cheol of Robot Taekwon V has produced so many hit films such as 'The Letter', 'A Promise', and 'My Sassy Girl' through Shin Cine Communications over the past 20 years.

The French government will award Korea's highly-acclaimed actress Jeon Do-yeon, with the title of the Knight of the Order of the Legion of Honor, France's highest (Chevalier de l'Ordre de la Légion d'Honneur), her agency said Thursday.

Launched in 1802 by Napoleon, the Legion of Honor is granted regardless of the nationality of its recipient.

The title recognizes Jeon's contribution to the culture and art fields, especially her efforts to promote Korean cinema in France. She won the Best Actress Award for her leading role in Lee Chang-dong's "Secret Sunshine" at the 60th edition of the Cannes Film Festival in 2007.

The award ceremony will take place at the French Night event on the sideline of the Pusan International Film Festival (PIFF), which started on Thursday in the nation's largest southern port city.

Jeon spent five years starring in television dramas before achieving instant star status with her film debut opposite Han Seok-kyu in "The Contact". She has established ...| More

Although its official release date is Sept. 4, Korea's latest blockbuster, "The Divine Weapon", took second place on last weekend's box office charts, after 2 days of paid-preview screenings organized by distributor CJ Entertainment. The Chosun-set epic targeted 405 screens, capturing US$ 1.4 million, coming in a close second behind Hollywood heavyweight, The Dark Knight.

Weapon is expected to reign over the upcoming Chuseok (Korean thanksgiving) holiday season (Sept. 13 – 15). The big budget $10 million production dramatizes the politics surrounding the world's first multi-launch rocket system, invented under Chosun-era king Sejong (reign 1418-1450) in an effort to face China with greater autonomy.

The film is directed by KIM Yoo-jin, who is best known for his 1998 melodrama "A Promise" starring JEON Do-yeon. It stars AHN Seong-gi as king Sejong, JEONG Jae-yeong as a sleazy merchant, and HAN Eun-jeong as the daughter of a weapon's scientist. The film intertwines high st...| More

Staff Reporter

In time for the nation's biggest holiday comes "The Divine Weapon", a highly anticipated epic dramatization of the world's first multi-launch rocket system invented during the Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910). Historical fiction is risky business, particularly in a country bound by deep cultural and historical homogeneity, and this film shows both the triumphs and perils of venturing into this genre.

The faction film employs anachronism to set a Tom and Jerry-type power struggle (since the Sino-Korean conflict occurred a century earlier), where China is becoming increasingly hostile in controlling the internal affairs of its small tributary state, Joseon. King Sejong (Ahn Seong-gi) is determined to strengthen the country's autonomy and has been secretly funding the development of a sophisticated weapon. But as the Chinese authority closes in on the project, the weapons designer commits suicide. All is not lost, however, as the scientist's daughter Hong-r...| More

When she met him at the first time, he was a wounded person. However, she saw him through his clear eyes hidden in the bandage. She, Chae Hi-Ju, is doctor and he, Kong Sang-Du, is boss of a bandit. The pair seemed not to love each other in terms of their position, but they were closed to each other giving up their own world. However, he was not a common man. He suggested her not to meet again, because he was worried about that she could be disclosed by the rival bandit. When her father was dead, her colleague doctor, Lee Se-Yeon, suggested her to go to the USA with him. However, she could not help meeting Kong Sang-Du again. Unfortunately, another tragedy was waiting for them. Kong Sang-Du killed a man in the fighting against the rival bandit losing his mind due to the death of his right-hand man. He hid himself and she was just waiting for him. One day, he came back to her in order to keep his promise for her.....
