Film Review - "Good Morning President" PIFF's Opening Film (Source) 2009/11/12
By Lee Komeda
Staff Writer

"Good Morning President", the most recent film by writer and director Jang Jin ("Guns and Talks", "Righteous Ties") may have been a safe choice as the opening film for the Pusan International Film Festival (PIFF) held last month: humorous and unthreatening. Tickets to the screening of the film at the largest international film festival in Asia were sold out within two minutes of their availability, possibly aided by the hallyu (Korean wave) powers of Jang Dong-gun.

The film skips stones across the domestic and foreign politics of Korea, without fully taking a plunge into the murky waters of ties between the two Koreas or the ethical dilemmas that politicians face during their tenure. Instead, we are left with a few great comedic moments in the movie that leave you feeling like you just witnessed a hybrid between Love Actually and a Korean sitcom.

The movie is vaguely divided into vignettes of three fictional Presidents. The first of these anecdotes ... |More
JANG Jin turns JANG Dong-gun into president (Source) 2009/10/16
Director JANG Jin is a peculiar filmmaker who has a gift for approaching subjects from an alternative angle with a typical JANG Jin style of humour. This time JANG delivers his latest film about three fictitious Korean presidents titled Good Morning President.

The biggest name attached to the project is pan-Asian star JANG Dong-gun who will soon enter the international market outside Asia with the film "The Warrior's Way". "The Warrior's Way" also stars Kate Bosworth and Geoffrey Rush.

JANG Dong-gun will play a young president who is also a single father. LEE Soon-jae's character is JANG's character's predecessor in charge of Korea. KO Doo-sim tackles the role of the first female Korean president. All three struggle to combine the demanding position and private life.

Writer/director JANG Jin's filmography includes films like "Guns and Talks" and "Someone Special", and he wrote the scenario for "Welcome to Dongmakgol". "Good Morning President" is the opening film of the 14th ... |More
'President' Offers Politically Correct Drama, Flawed Politics (Source) 2009/10/09
By Lee Hyo-won
Staff Reporter

BUSAN ― Choosing Jang Jin's "Good Morning President" ost morale for South Korean film industry, festival director Kim Dong-ho said. The film is a feel good, albeit blemished, drama that lightheartedly throws in ethical questions and personal dilemmas into state affairs.

But choosing "President" seemed to be a more nominal choice for opening Asia's largest cinema event. The film skims the surface of Northeast Asia geopolitics, including some red-hot North Korea issues, but laughter and emotional reactions that it aims to draw from viewers are easy to miss for non-Koreans (though Jang Dong-gun's hallyu power will certainly draw attention from fans scattered around the globe, from Japan to Mexico).

The film takes viewers to the private quarters of the Blue House set amid the terms of three fictional presidents. Kim Jong-ho (Lee Soon-jae) is an elderly head-of-state who wins, just before retiring, the lottery he bought as part of a photo-op. ... |More
Actor Jang Dong-gun Returns as 'President' (Source) 2009/09/23
By Lee Hyo-won
Staff Reporter

Jang Dong-gun makes a comeback onscreen as a character not unlike himself ― an eligible bachelor ― in "Good Morning President".

The film's press event in southern Seoul Tuesday morning buzzed with reporters, particularly since it is slated to open the 13th Pusan (Busan) International Film Festival, Oct. 8. The latest comedy by prolific director Jang Jin is about three fictional South Korean presidents.

Jang returns to the local silver screen four years after "Typhoon" as the youngest ever head-of-state who's equipped with not only charismatic diplomatic skills but also handsome looks.

The 37-year-old indeed appeared suave in a clean cut suit and tie. Reporters mischievously asked about his screen persona being dubbed "pretty-boy president" like his actual moniker, "the original pretty-boy actor".

"I feel sort of guilty to hear that title at this age, but I have to admit it's not a bad feeling", he said, chuckling. "But I do wish... |More
LEE Hae-joon films JEONG Jae-yeong's adventures and JEONG Ryeo-won (Source) 2008/09/11
LEE Hae-joon is attempting his solo feature film directorial debut with the film "Castaway on the Moon", Kimssi pyoryoogi (English translation: "the adventures of Mr. KIM"). He previously co-directed the acclaimed "Like a Virgin" with LEE Hae-yeong.


The titular character will be played by JEONG Jae-yeong. JEONG's character runs to the Han River in Seoul to commit suicide, but it won't come that far. JEONG previously starred in JANG Jin's "Someone Special" and "Guns and Talks". He is currently in cinemas with "Public Enemy Returns" and "The Divine Weapon".

Mr. KIM's change of plans is due to another KIM, a woman played by JEONG Ryeo-won. JEONG was seen in last year's "2 Faces of My Girlfriend".

Filming started in late August. The film is scheduled for a release in next year.

Synopsis

Professional assassins for hire, Sang-yun is the cool-headed leader of the group, Jung-woo is the specialist in custom-made bombs, Jae-young is the unmatched sniper, and Ha-yun is the computer wiz. They're not your typical wise guys, but run a private business where people from all walks of life can come place an order. After they meet their clients and discuss the time, place and method by which they want their targets to be eliminated, they sign a formal contract. They even have a discount rate for students. Once the deal is done, they carry out their mission and finish it like a typical day at work. Then, one day, they leave a trail behind on a big job, and Inspector Cho hunts them down. While he is hot on their trail, Sang-yun meets a client and is confronted with a dangerous order he can't turn down. The client wants someone killed in the middle of a sold-out performance of "Hamlet" which will be attended by high-profile businessmen, politicians and law officials. Inspector Cho learns of this, and sends the whole police force to catch them in the act. Still undaunted by the risks, Sang-yun leads his group in what could be the last mission they'll ever get away with.

Guns & Talks by Rogue

T
his movie allows us a glimpse into the lives of assassins. They do not seem to be hard-core killers, in my honest opinion, but they DO kill people for a fee. Described as a quartet of male assassins, the group aim to please their clients to the point of running after a police car carrying the guy our assassins are supposed to kill. A detective becomes suspicious and begins surveying the group's activities. This does not do well for our unlikely heroes who are to stage their biggest assignment yet - to kill a guy during a Hamlet play, in front of hundreds of people (client's preference, hehe). With the cops on their trail, will our assassins be able to pull this off?

Surprisingly, I was entertained by the movie. It wasn't at all boring considering that there were more 'talks' rather than 'guns'. The actors were funny enough without trying hard to be so. Although there were a few unbelievable scenes far and in between, you just have to suspend your disbelief and take the movie for what it is - a fun one.
