  • KoreanFilm.org's Top Korean films of 2011 by Darcy Paquet

    2012/01/14, Source,
    Each year I assemble my top 10 list out of the Korean films that have been released in theaters over the previous 12 months. The small independent films that I catch at the Busan or Jeonju film festivals may not be released by December, but they generally do get a small commercial release within a year or two, so I can include them in a later list.This year, however, I came across a great film that may end up not getting a commercial release, so I squeezed it in where #10 would normally go. I was racking my brain over that #10 slot anyway,...More
  • South Korean Box Office in 2011

    2012/01/14, Source,
    Korean cinema expert Darcy Paquet looks back at the results of 2011's box office with some unexpected hits and misses, the rise of independent features, and how audiences confirmed they value story over spectacle. Although the number crunchers in Hollywood estimate that US theatrical admissions sank to their lowest level since 1995, things were not so gloomy in Korea. With an estimated 160 million tickets sold (more precise figures will become available at a later date), it appears that Korea has approached or broken the modern-day record for admissions. In 2010, total admissions stopped at 146.8 million. In monetary terms, 2011 was certainly the best year ever, given the 3D surcharge and rising average ticket prices. Americans may be growing tired of the theatrical movie-going experience, but young Koreans still crowd the multiplexes,...More

    Of the many Korean films that were released this year, "Late Autumn - 2010", left, and independent film "Re-encounter" were chosen as impressive films of the year by critics. Provided by each distributor It was another tough year for the film industry.

Previously known "Hye-hwa, Child" on HanCinema
Synopsis
To recover memories from five years ago…
Can our story start again?
18 year-old Hye-hwa and Han-soo were lovers but as soon as Hye-hwa got pregnant Han-soo disappeared completely. Five years later, Han-soo suddenly appears in front of Hye-hwa and the two of them find out their baby is still alive. Hye-hwa doesn’t believe Han-soo. However, after finding out her child had been adopted, she can’t help but weaken.
____________

“Re-encounter” drew favorable reviews from critics and audiences alike when it was screened at film festivals last year.

At the 15th Pusan International Film Festival it won Best Director in the Korean Cinema Today: Vision section and at the 36th Seoul Independent Film Festival it won Best Picture, the Independent Star Award (actress) and the Kodak Award.

The film follows the story of Hye-hwa (Yoo Da-in) and Han-soo (Yoo Yeon-seok).

The two fall in love at 18, but when Hye-hwa reports she is pregnant Han-soo disappears to Canada.

Five years later, Han-soo shows up with the news that their child, who Hye-hwa was told died in childbirth, is alive and has been adopted.

Hye-hwa is struck upon learning the news, and she is forced to relive the pain of her past, but in the end she decides to search for her child.

Director Min Yong-geun, who also wrote the script, took a risk in deciding not to rely upon top stars to tell his story.

The actors’ talents shine through and their performances were well-received by film critics.

The movie hits theaters on Feb. 17. The Korean title of the film, “Hye-hwa, Dong,” is not related to the Hyehwa-dong neighborhood in central Seoul.
