[Joo Seong-cheol's Locker] The Aesthetics of Jongmyo That Captivated Masters of Martial Arts from Ho Kim-jun to John Woo, Jackie Chan, and Sammo Hung

[Joo Seong-cheol's Locker] The Aesthetics of Jongmyo That Captivated Masters of Martial Arts from Ho Kim-jun to John Woo, Jackie Chan, and Sammo Hung

I get fascinated by objects in movies. I fall into deep contemplation about why that object was placed in front of the camera, whether it be the director, cinematographer, art director, or an actor. 'Joo Seong-cheol's Locker' is a record of the objects in movies that have lightly stepped on my eyes.
I must ask for your understanding again. I changed the last series to 'Joo Seong-cheol's Character Locker' and wrote a tribute to actor Lee Soon-jae, and this time I want to change it to 'Joo Seong-cheol's Building Locker' to talk about 'Jongmyo'.

[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.

[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.

'The Rose: Come Back to Me' A Thorny Rose That Thrived Through the K-Pop System, Meeting the Band 'The Rose'

We met the four members of The Rose, Kim Woosung, Lee Ha-jun, Lee Tae-kyum, and Park Do-joon, in the documentary 〈The Rose: Come Back to Me〉 that captures the ongoing challenges of the band in their eighth year since debut.
In a fiercely competitive world where only 0. 1 percent of aspiring artists debut, and among them, only 0. 001 percent can succeed. The joy of dreaming of becoming a trainee as the destination of dreams does not last long.
