100min | Release date in South Korea : 2005/12/09The Korean Film Festival DC 2008 opened already in early April, and is still running until June 12. The festival is organised by the Smithsonian Institute with the assistance of several Korean organisations, including the Korean Film Council (KOFIC).
Tom Vick, programmer, thinks it's "only a slight exaggeration to say that South Korea is in the process of conquering the world with its movies". He praises the diversity in Korean cinema, and speaks of a "wealth of talent and creativity" as the force behind the developments in Korean cinema. The festival programmed a mix of popular blockbusters, documentaries, animation, and independent films. The films in June are the animation "Empress Chung", "Love is a Crazy Thing", and "The King and the Clown". Yi Ch'ang-ho (KOFIC) http://www.asia.si.edu/koreanfilm2008/default.htm...| More | |||

Contributing Writer UDINE, Italy ㅡ With 13 recent films mostly unreeled in their international and European premiere, Korean cinema is once again under media spotlight at the Far East Film Festival (FEFF) taking place in Udine, a North East Italian city. Now in its eighth edition, the fast-growing event claims primacy among Western film festivals concerned with Asian cinema. Certainly a one-of-a-kind format among film festivals that commonly tend to focus on art-movies, FEFF proves the global appeal of mainstream Asian productions, as press officials stress record-breaking figures in international accredited press and report screenings continuously playing to full capacity. Among the seventy films from East Asia blending into the enticing FEFF menu, the Korean ones retain a prominent spot indeed, as both opening and closing soirees happen to showcase Chungmuro productions.
