[Joo Seong-cheol’s Lockers] Lee Cronin’s The Mummy and Murderous People Season 2 — and a Scorpion Jacket That Feels Like the Rise of Drive

[Joo Seong-cheol’s Lockers] Lee Cronin’s The Mummy and Murderous People Season 2 — and a Scorpion Jacket That Feels Like the Rise of Drive

I get hooked on the objects in movies. I can’t help but get lost in questions about why the director, cinematographer, production designer, or even the actors put that thing right in front of the camera. “[Joo Seong-cheol’s Lockers]” is a record of those movie objects that land lightly—right onto my eyes.
Watching 〈Lee Cronin’s The Mummy〉 , you can feel the full-on force of Blumhouse as it revives a franchise that seemed long dead: 〈Mummy〉. The first 〈Mummy〉 (1932), powered by the charisma of actor Boris Karloff, was basically the flagship of the “Universal Horror” era.

“Yeon-jigu” In-Depth Review ② : A Touching Moment When Tony Leung Chiu-wai and Maggie Cheung Were Playing Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai in “The Butterfly Lovers”

〈Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai〉 are also known as the “Chinese version of 〈Romeo and Juliet〉,” but they are also the original inspiration for 〈Forbidden Love〉 (1994) starring Tony Leung Chiu-wai and Yu Wen-yi.

‘Yeonjigu’ In-Depth Review ①: The First Glance That Hooked Me—‘Guest-Trip Autumn Regret’ Sung by Tony Leung Chiu-wai and Anita Mui

‘Yeonjigu’ In-Depth Review ①: The First Glance That Hooked Me—‘Guest-Trip Autumn Regret’ Sung by Tony Leung Chiu-wai and Anita Mui

Yeo-hua dresses in menswear and sings “Guest-Trip Autumn Regret” (客途秋恨), and Zhenfang, who arrives late to the drinking gathering, is instantly captivated by what he sees.
〈Injigu〉(1987) lived in Korea for a long time under the title 〈Injigu〉. This all started when the journalist who first introduced the film mistook the Chinese characters and wrote 〈Injigu〉; afterward, other outlets copied it as well. Even action star Donnie Yen (甄子丹) went through something similar.

[Interview] Park Jung-min of 'Humint' ②

[Interview] Park Jung-min of 'Humint' ② "I think action is also an expression of emotion"

※〈Humint〉 Park Jung-min Interview Part 2 continues from Part 1. Park Geon is a lonely character. I feel that this character trait resonates with the characters from past French noir films. I'm curious if there are any movies or characters that you referenced in expressing the character's loneliness.
