If someone asked me to sum up this comic, I'd probably hesitate and finally say, "It's fun. " It is fun. But it's not easy to explain. When I try to list impressions I come up with words that don't normally go together—funny, sweet, scary, brutal—so it's hard to convey.

[Kim Ji-yeon’s Jewel Box] Right Now Is Yoon Byung-hee’s Prime

I’m interested in people. Even actors already drawing attention may be less famous today than they will be tomorrow. 'Kim Ji-yeon’s Jewel Box' introduces performers reaching new highs by the day. Think of it as spotting a breakout before everyone else does.
Writing about an actor who seems to be everywhere on TV can feel almost too obvious, but Yoon Byung-hee is in the midst of another prime that is impossible to ignore. Yoon Byung-hee has recently appeared in 〈My Royal Nemesis〉, 〈Sold Out on You〉 and 〈21segi Daegunbuin〉 — three dramas that aired...

[Joo Seong-cheol’s Locker] Zombie Things That Don’t Flinch Even When Shot: Korea’s First Zombie Film, “Kwe-si” (1981)

I can’t help but fixate on the objects in the movies. I find myself getting deeply lost in thought about why—of all things—this director, cinematographer, art director, or even the actor, placed that item in front of the camera. “Joo Seong-cheol’s Locker” is a record of the objects in films that landed on my eyes with a light, delicate stomp.
