2010/11/11, Source,
Actress-turned-director Bang Eun-jin has released a compilation album consisting of 95 songs from 60 Korean films. The songs on the album are low key and melodic and are enjoyable enough to stand on their own. By Oh Sang-min
Music from a film sometimes leaves a stronger impression than the movie itself. The song "Gabriel's Oboe", from the 1986 British film "The Mission" is recognizable whether one has seen the movie or not.

And it was because the many incidents surrounding and swallowing up bestselling writer Baek Hee-soo (played by Uhm Jung-hwa) stretched into various genres such as thriller, mystery and action. Baek Hee-soo, who is being suspected of plagiarism, overcomes a slump and publishes a new book. But it too winds up in a plagiarism controversy and a strange vibe hangs in the air of the country house where she wrote the book. Despite being a horror movie, the film hangs on to elements of mystery and at the same time, does not give up on being a drama either, just like the director said he "wanted to pour various genres such as a house horror, mystery and thriller into a single film and make it flow like water". The film also unravels its story without attempting to squeeze in a shocking twist -- a mistake commonly made in Korean thriller and horror films. Actress Uhm Jung-hwa, who maintains her realistic touch while going back and forth between schizophrenia and hysteria, does well in pulling off her part as the film's sole lead. And the balanced and seasoned acting by every main and supporting actor is impressive as well. Below are excerpts from the Q&A session held after the screening,...More
