[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).

[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.

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.

The Holidays Are Long! Recommended Korean Dramas to Binge-Watch During Chuseok

Cineplay reporters get busy as the holidays approach. Why. To catch up on work. To handle holiday-related tasks. While that’s not wrong, (we're working hard, boss) there’s another reason. It’s the struggle of deciding what to watch during the holidays.
