Are These Actors All Here?! Meeting Japanese Actors and Their Works in 'Good News'

Are These Actors All Here?! Meeting Japanese Actors and Their Works in 'Good News'

Was it a global project? While watching the Netflix original 〈Good News〉 directed by Byun Sung-hyun, which was released on October 17, I thought about that. It is based on the real-life Japanese civil aviation hijacking incident, which is why not only Korean actors but also a large number of...

Hong Kong Retro Movie Tour ③ ‘Kowloon Walled City: The Untold Stories’ — The Kowloon Walled City Park Set That Revives Memories of Hong Kong Cinema

Hong Kong Retro Movie Tour ③ ‘Kowloon Walled City: The Untold Stories’ — The Kowloon Walled City Park Set That Revives Memories of Hong Kong Cinema

Erased in 1993, the Kowloon Walled City — left behind as “Kowloon Walled City Park” — was a bleak illegal residential zone where no sliver of sunlight ever reached.
When director Jingle Bao-rui’s 〈Kowloon Walled City: The Untold Stories〉 (hereinafter 〈Kowloon Walled City〉, 2024) hit theaters in Hong Kong in 2024, it set a record for the biggest box-office success in Hong Kong history.

[Joo Seong-cheol’s Locker] Do You Know the Origin of Woody in “Toy Story”?

[Joo Seong-cheol’s Locker] Do You Know the Origin of Woody in “Toy Story”?

I can’t stop fixating on the objects in the movies. I get pulled into deep thought over why—director, cinematographer, production designer, maybe even an actor—someone put that object in front of the camera. “Joo Seong-cheol’s Locker” is a record of the objects from films that landed in my eyes, as if they gently stepped over them.
〈Toy Story 2〉 (1999)’s opening begins as if it were a scene from the 〈Star Wars〉 series. And in the moment of crisis, Woody recites the lines “Think about it, think about it,” like the way Dong-su (Kim Sang-kyung) does in 〈Theater Jeon〉 (2005) or Yeon-hong (Son Ye-jin) does in 〈No Secrets〉 (2016).

Cineplay Critics Weigh the Pluses and Minuses of ‘Colony’

Surpassing 3 million viewers within 10 days of its release, Colony is indisputably the most popular film in theaters right now. Yet despite that box-office success, reactions to Colony are sharply divided — a split that was evident even among Cineplay reporters at a press screening.

So, How Scary Is It? “Salmokji” — Seen in Advance at a Press Screening

So, How Scary Is It? “Salmokji” — Seen in Advance at a Press Screening

After a long while, a horror film that still has bite has arrived. If, while watching a horror movie, you find yourself thinking, “Ugh, come on,” then that’s basically the end of it. If the emptiness at the finish of something eerie arrives and the fear doesn’t quite live up to expectations, all...

[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.

[Interview] Han So-hee from 'Project Y'②

[Interview] Han So-hee from 'Project Y'② "In an era where we need to do 'well' rather than just 'hard', to show a different face, I must be able to let go of myself"

※〈Project Y〉 actress Han So-hee's interview continues in part 1. 〈Project Y〉 is particularly iconic in terms of the characters' visuals. How did you design Mi-sun's visuals. Since the movie captures a short period of time, the outfits we could wear were limited.
