Cineplay Critics Weigh the Pluses and Minuses of ‘Colony’

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.

[Chu Ah-young's Music Box] Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' and 'Heal the World' That Tried to Turn Dreams into Reality

[Chu Ah-young's Music Box] Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' and 'Heal the World' That Tried to Turn Dreams into Reality

I am captivated by music in films. Music sometimes reveals a character's intimate emotions that visible images and spoken lines alone cannot convey.

[Kim Ji-yeon's Jewelry Box] You Already Knew Lee Hyo-je! 'If Wishes Could Kill' Lee Hyo-je

[Kim Ji-yeon's Jewelry Box] You Already Knew Lee Hyo-je! 'If Wishes Could Kill' Lee Hyo-je

I am curious about people. Even if someone is already a noticed actor, today may be the least famous they'll ever be. 'Kim Ji-yeon's Jewelry Box' introduces actors who are reaching new highs by the day. Treat these 'soaring stocks' as 'buy-the-dip' opportunities.
The first time I saw Lee Hyo-je, or rather the first time I 'mistook' that I had seen him, was at a small theater. Earlier this year, Lee Hyo-je took the stage as the character Gi Ho-tae in the youth troupe Bu-eong Waltz's play 〈Escape from Reality〉.
