The horror breakout that made waves worldwide is finally reaching Korean audiences. Directed by Kerry Barker, 〈Obsession〉 met viewers at the Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival last July and is set to open on Sept. 2. Seen at an Aug.

※The interview with actor Gong Hyo-jin for 〈Gyeongju Trip〉 continues from Part 1. Your chemistry with Park So-dam, who plays the second sister Young-ju, and Lee Yeon, who plays the youngest sister Dong-ju, felt strikingly natural on screen. What was it like working together on set.

Gong Hyo-jin’s acting carries an unusually persuasive power. Even a premise in which a character sets out to punish a heinous criminal herself, and a genre blend that shuttles relentlessly between comedy and tears, feel entirely believable because of her.

[First reactions] 〈Obsession〉, the film that ranked No. 1 at the box office among horror releases this year, opens in South Korea on Sept. 2. It centers on a couple who fall in love after making a wish on a stick called 'One Wish Willow,' which grants any wish.

The canonical folk-horror film 〈The Wicker Man〉 (1973) will receive its first South Korean theatrical release on Aug. 19 in a 4K remastered restoration, 〈The Wicker Man: Final Cut〉 (hereafter 〈The Wicker Man〉).

The summer festival season is over, but many overseas musicians are set to perform in South Korea in the second half of the year. Here are films where you can hear the music of three of the most eagerly anticipated acts: David Byrne, Post Malone and The Weeknd.

“You must water and give sunlight for flowers to bloom…” Canon Korea held ‘Canon Cinema Camp 2026’ from July 27 to July 31, bringing 30 aspiring filmmakers together for five days of lectures and on-set training.

The slang term "bamti" has gone viral. From its origin to its usage, the bittersweet humor of bamti started when a user with the nickname Bamti in a social game customized their character in an unusually eccentric way.

Are new movie stars being born. As of Aug. 14, 〈Spider-Man: Brand New Day〉 and 〈Odyssey〉, both now playing worldwide, have surpassed US$1,722,310,000 and US$1,127,010,000 at the global box office, respectively, riding a strong summer run.

I love subculture. I follow not just films but webtoons, games, comics and animation—anything with fresh stories, themes or characters. Comic books opened the door to fandom for me, and now I’m the kind of grown-up kid who reads comics on an e-reader and webtoons on a smartphone.
