Yoo Eun-jeong on ‘Shadow Child’: Im Soo-jung Said ‘A Tale of Two Sisters’ Brought the Film to Mind

What if you met someone who looked exactly like a loved one you had lost?

[Interview] “Who Do You Build for?” Director Lim Pil-seong, Part ② of “How to Become a Landlord in the Republic of Korea”

Last weekend, the show reached episode 8 and is now past the midpoint of its 12-episode run.
▶ 〈How to Become a Landlord〉 The interview with Director Im Pil-seong continues from Part 1. After episode 7, it felt like the ending was shaped by the director’s point of view. But it’s pretty rare for both the writer and the director to be making a drama together for the first time.

[Interview] Rising to the Role of a Lifetime! Im Soo-jung from 'Low Life' Says, "Jung-sook Even Appears Cute to Me"

"Acting is Really 'So Much' Fun"
I dare say that Yang Jung-sook is Im Soo-jung's 'role of a lifetime'. The Disney+ series 〈Low Life〉 is a picaresque tale that highlights a 'dark ensemble' formed by villains committing their own misdeeds. However, the evil acts committed by each character make them even more intriguing and...

Jin-hwa (Lim Jin-hwa), leader of the indie band Hoa, is told by his girlfriend of seven years, Mirae (Seo Eun-soo), that she wants to break up. Then he starts meeting people.
We dream. We love like 〈Once〉, yearn with the desperation of 〈Begin Again〉, and hope like 〈La La Land〉. Whatever it is, your 20s are a time of hardship and brilliance when you spend them pursuing what you love. Because you have a dream.

[Kim Ji-yeon's Gem Box] 38-Year 'Rookie' Actor Nam Kwon-a of 'Tazza: The Song of Belzebub' and 'Gyeongju Trip'

I am curious about people. Even actors already drawing attention may be having the least famous day of their careers right now. 'Kim Ji-yeon's Gem Box' introduces actors whose profiles are reaching new highs by the day. Buy into these rising stars while they are still undervalued.
If I had to name just one Korean commercial film released this year whose performance fell short of expectations, it would unquestionably be 〈Gyeongju Trip〉. The film's provocative story and its sheer determination to swing between comedy and tragedy with almost ungainly roughness certainly shone,...
Joo Sung-chul's Locker: What's Wrong With Talking About 'Assassins' and the Missing Bullet?

Joo Sung-chul's Locker: What's Wrong With Talking About 'Assassins' and the Missing Bullet?

I fixate on objects in movies. I find myself wondering why the director, cinematographer, production designer or actor placed that particular object in front of the camera. 'Joo Sung-chul's Locker' records the objects in movies that quietly catch my eye.
〈Assassins〉 has canceled all events tied to the Busan International Film Festival, which opens today, Oct. 6. The cancellations began with actor Lee Min-ho's absence from Actors' House, a program that brings actors together with audiences, and were followed by the cancellation of one stage greeting...
