[INTERVIEW] Actor Song Kang-ho - Part 2 (Source) 2010/03/04


Actor Song Kang-ho [photographed by Beck Una/10Asia]


Beck: What did you find likeable and entertaining about the script for "Secret Reunion"?
Song: Ten years ago, I did the films "Shiri" and "JSA - Joint Security Area" which are both about South Korea, North Korea and men. So, "Secret Reunion" was similar to them in a way, a similar story, but the overall outline of the movie is completely different from the previous films. The film doesn't treat the South-North division as its theme but rather takes an incredibly soft, light and sophisticated approach to it. I thought that was closer to how the audience currently feels about the divi... |More

Manilla's Korean Film Festival Kicks Off (Source) 2009/10/01
Manilla's 2009 Korean Film Festival opened Sept 23, offering free screenings to the public during its one week run. Sponsored by the Korean Embassy and held at Shangri-La Plaza, the fest showcases seven Korean features and celebrates the "Philippines-Republic of Korea Friendship Year".

The program features some of the most artistically accomplished films in Korean cinema over the last 9 years, including renowned and emerging directors. Korean TV dramas are already popular in the Philippines, but audiences have yet to be exposed to Korean feature filmmaking.

The seven films in the program are "Old Boy" (PARK Chan-wook), "Barking Dogs Never Bite" (BONG Joon-ho), "Sa-Kwa" (KANG Yi-kwan), "Beyond the Years" (IM Kwon-taek), "The Show Must Go On" (HAN Jae-rim), "Forbidden Quest" (KIM Dae-woo) and "Driving with My Wife's Lover" (KIM Tae-sik).

HAN Jae-rim's Super-Hero Project Unveils at Pusan (Source) 2009/08/31
Director HAN Jae-rim will reveal his third feature film project "Trace" – a US $7.7 million superhero blockbuster – at the Asian Film Market's PPP, a major project market that takes place during the Pusan Int'l Film Festival in October.

Based on a web-based comic series by the same title, Trace is the story of Yoon-sung, a young man who wakes up with supernatural powers after days in a coma after an assault that takes his father's life. When the assault remains unsolved due to an apathetic police, Yoon-sung takes matters into his own hands. He discovers that another man with superpowers, Hee-sup, was involved and that he wants Yoon-sung dead.

The project is to be produced by Syd Lim and SEO Woo-sik of Barunson Film Division. The company has produced such major titles as KIM Ji-woon's "The Good, The Bad, The Weird" and BONG Joon-ho's "Mother - 2009". "Trace" is being billed as Korea's first superhero blockbuster.

HAN debuted in 2005 with "The Rules of Dating", a caus... |More

I really liked this movie. And the ending was good as it was realistic and not the ordinary happy ending.
