[Seong Chan-eol’s Comics] I hesitated to recommend it, but 30,000 moviegoers leaves me saying ‘Give it a try’: 「The Dangers in My Heart」

I go crazy for subculture. I check out anything with fresh stories, settings or characters — not only films but webtoons, games, comics and animation. I entered the world of fandom through comics: as an adult I read comics as e-books and webtoons on my smartphone, a self-described 'kidult.' But it's less fun alone. I write Seong Chan-eol's Comics to share things that are more enjoyable together, seen from the perspective of an omnivorous fan.
To be frank, this is one of my current favorite comics, but it’s one I avoided writing about for a while. It’s wildly fun and genuinely heart-fluttering, but the barrier to entry is high. If even I, a fan of the series, felt that hesitation, I wasn’t sure how many readers would go along with it.
Hong Kong Retro Movie Tour ② “Comedy King,” Stephen Chow’s Film Where You Never Get Tired of Just Staring at the Sea All Day at Sek O Beach

Hong Kong Retro Movie Tour ② “Comedy King,” Stephen Chow’s Film Where You Never Get Tired of Just Staring at the Sea All Day at Sek O Beach

Among Hong Kong films, it seems there is none that so deeply absorbs the mood of a place as much as Comedy King. With the exception of the film sets and a nightclub or two, it was shot almost entirely at Sek O Beach, located at the far southeastern tip of Hong Kong Island.

[Interview] Y2K Sensibility, Meeting This Year’s Debut, Director Changrok Han in the Hot Seat, Actors Joo Min-hyeong and Baek Ji-hye (②)

The 〈strong〉Chungchungchung〈/strong〉 (also rendered as 〈strong〉Chung Chung Chung〈/strong〉)—made with the 2018 murder case in Washington, Benton as its inspiration—depicts a catastrophe sparked by the tangled, competing desires of three children.
How did the two of you interpret and approach your respective characters. The name “Courage” suggests an energy that’s overflowing, but the character is also a “pathetic” youth who doesn’t have real, powerful force.

[Interview] Catching This Year’s Debut, a Y2K-Era Sensibility: Director Han Chang-rok, Actors Joo Min-hyung and Baek Ji-hye, Part 1

Inspired by a murder case in Washington, Benton in 2018, 〈Choong-Choong-Choong〉 portrays a catastrophe sparked by the intersecting desires of three kids.
Retro is the trend. In the fashion, music and props of young people in their 20s, there’s nowhere that a Y2K sensibility hasn’t managed to seep in. Director Han Chang-rok, born in 1990 and a graduate of the Korea National University of Arts film school, pulls this retro sensibility straight onto...
[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).

Where You’ve Seen the ‘My Flavor Boys’ Cast From 〈The Legend of Kitchen Soldier〉 Before, Including a ‘Squid Game’ Actor

The fictional boy band My Flavor Boys has become one of the breakout gags of TVING’s 〈The Recruit Cook Becomes a Legend〉 — popular enough to land on 〈M COUNTDOWN〉 and send viewers searching for the actors behind the group.
[Sung Chan-eol's Comics] 「Kindergarten WARS」 Turns Body Count Into Bizarre Rom-Com Fun

[Sung Chan-eol's Comics] 「Kindergarten WARS」 Turns Body Count Into Bizarre Rom-Com Fun

I'm obsessed with subculture. If a story or character feels fresh—whether in film, webtoons, games, comics, or animation—I check it out. Comics opened the world of fandom to me, and now I'm a kid-at-heart adult who reads paper volumes as e-books and webtoons on my phone. But it's less fun alone. I write [Sung Chan-eol's Comics] to share what’s more enjoyable experienced together, from the perspective of an enthusiastic generalist.
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.

Interview: Gu Kyo-hwan Says ‘I Want to Beat Up Seo Yeong-cheol’ Is the Highest Praise for ‘Colony’

It’s fair to call this "Gu Kyo-hwan’s year. " From 《If We》, which helped spark a melodrama boom, to the recently ended series 《Everyone Is Fighting Their Own Sense of Worthlessness》 (hereafter 《Mojamussa》), and the film 《Colony》, released on May 21 and which has surpassed about 2.

[Interview] Yeon Sang-ho on 〈Colony〉: ‘I Drew Inspiration From the Extreme Game Mechanics of Escape Rooms and the Operating Principles of AI’

Yeon Sang-ho has done it again. Released on May 22, 〈Colony〉 passed 2 million viewers in its opening week. The overseas response has been as strong as the domestic reaction: advance international sales have already generated significant revenue, and in Malaysia the film ranked third among all...
