A dazzling 12-day journey, the artistic questions Cannes left behind

At the 79th Cannes International Film Festival’s student short film competition, director Jin Misong wins second place for “Silent Voice”

I'm obsessed with subculture. I check out anything with fresh stories, settings, or characters — movies, webtoons, games, comics, animation. Having discovered fandom through comics, I became what I call an "e-adult" — an adult who reads printed comics via e-books and webtoons on my phone. But it's less fun alone. In this recurring column, Seong Chan-eol's Comics, I highlight works that are more enjoyable together from the perspective of a jack-of-all-fandoms — a fan with broad, eclectic tastes.

'Silent Voices' takes Jin Misong the Second Prize in Cannes…A major milestone as Wonjeong Choi lands the first invitation for a Korean animation, with the ambitions of the next generation of masters

I am captivated by music in films. Music sometimes reveals a character's intimate emotions that visible images and spoken lines alone cannot convey. It can become a window into the creator's hidden intentions. For me, understanding film music was one way of reaching a movie. 'Chu Ah-young's Music Box' listens to a film's voice up close by way of its music. (P.S. I hope you listen to the music while reading.)

I thought that reaction would come from the first time I read the script, and I felt this would be the most surprising of the films I've done. Isn't it a pleasant kind of betrayal?

Submissions are accepted until July 20, and the awards ceremony will be held on August 29 at the Korea Film Archive’s main office in Sangam-dong.

I can’t help but get hooked on the objects in movies. Director, cinematographer, production designer, or even an actor—why, exactly, did they put that item in front of the camera? ‘Joo Seong-cheol’s Lockers’ is a record of the movie objects that lightly landed under my gaze and, somehow, stuck there.
