[Joo Seong-cheol’s Locker] David’s Stone That Took Down Goliath, “David” All the Way Through

[Joo Seong-cheol’s Locker] David’s Stone That Took Down Goliath, “David” All the Way Through

I can’t help getting captivated by the objects in movies. I fall into deep thought over why, whether it’s the director, the cinematographer, the art director—or even the actor—someone felt compelled to place that particular item in front of the camera. “Joo Seong-cheol’s Locker” is a record of the movie objects that came down on my eyes like stepping onto a soft stair.
Is there anyone who doesn’t know David’s stone. The story of David and Goliath that is told in 〈Robot Taekwon V〉(1976), and 〈General Tolly〉, and the 〈Ureomei〉 series, and countless other children’s animations and feature films—was also made by director Kim Cheong-gi, known for creating them all.

How Jim O'Rourke's 'Eureka' Set Aoyama Shinji's 〈Eureka〉 in Motion

How Jim O'Rourke's 'Eureka' Set Aoyama Shinji's 〈Eureka〉 in Motion

I am drawn to music in film. At times, music reveals a character's private emotions in ways images and dialogue cannot. It can also open a window into a creator’s hidden intent. For me, understanding film music was one way into the film itself. "Chu A-young's Music Box" listens closely to a film’s voice through its music. (P.S. I hope you listen to the music while you read.)
Director Aoyama Shinji's film 〈Eureka〉 is a road movie about wounded people who travel an endless road in search of the possibility of healing and renewal. The characters, survivors of a terror that shattered ordinary life, set out on a trip to escape the trauma of the incident.

[Seong Chan-eol's Comics] The extreme realism of 'Soohee0 (tngmlek0),' the webtoon that had readers saying, 'This author is clearly obsessed with streaming'

[Seong Chan-eol's Comics] The extreme realism of 'Soohee0 (tngmlek0),' the webtoon that had readers saying, 'This author is clearly obsessed with streaming'

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.
We live in an era where influencers rise and fall every day. The dramatic advancement of social media and live-streaming platforms has brought us to a point where audiences can choose the stars they want, rather than being handed manufactured celebrities.

[Seong Chan-eol's Manga Books] A Class-Defying Romance That Slowly Seeps In Like Ink in Water 「Emma」

I'm obsessed with subculture. I check out anything that handles fresh stories, ideas, or characters—not only films but webtoons, games, comics, and animation. Having opened the door to the world of 'geek' through printed manga, I now read comics on e-books and webtoons on my smartphone—I've become...

[Kim Ji-yeon's Treasure Box] From 'Asan Baekho' to Seo Hyun-jin's Younger Brother, 'Love Me' Lee Si-woo

[Kim Ji-yeon's Treasure Box] From 'Asan Baekho' to Seo Hyun-jin's Younger Brother, 'Love Me' Lee Si-woo

I am curious about people. Even if they are already recognized actors, today might be the least famous day of their lives. 'Kim Ji-yeon's Treasure Box' introduces actors who are continuously breaking their own records. Invest in 'rising stocks' at their low points.
Whether solid or cool. If you encountered Lee Si-woo through 〈Boys' Generation〉's 'Asan Baekho', he would be an actor with an incredibly cool charismatic face, and if you first met him as 'Jun-seo', the youngest member of the Seo family in 〈Love Me〉, Lee Si-woo would be an actor with the face of a...

[Kim Ji-yeon's Jewelry Box] 2025 Presence of the Year Award, 'Typhoon Company' Lee Sang-jin from 'Fine: Country Bumpkins'

[Kim Ji-yeon's Jewelry Box] 2025 Presence of the Year Award, 'Typhoon Company' Lee Sang-jin from 'Fine: Country Bumpkins'

I am curious about people. Even if they are already recognized actors, today might be the least famous day of their lives. 'Kim Ji-yeon's Jewelry Box' introduces actors who are continuously breaking their own records. Invest in 'rising stocks' at their low points.
Truly an actor who embodies the phrase 'crazy presence.' If there is a 'Presence of the Year Award' in 2025, I would like to give it to this actor. Recently concluded drama 〈Seoul's Manager Kim Working at a Large Company〉 featured a special appearance, while in the movie 〈Good News〉 he had a minor...

[Joo Seong-cheol's Locker] The Aesthetics of Jongmyo That Captivated Masters of Martial Arts from Ho Kim-jun to John Woo, Jackie Chan, and Sammo Hung

I get fascinated by objects in movies. I fall into deep contemplation about why that object was placed in front of the camera, whether it be the director, cinematographer, art director, or an actor. 'Joo Seong-cheol's Locker' is a record of the objects in movies that have lightly stepped on my eyes.
I must ask for your understanding again. I changed the last series to 'Joo Seong-cheol's Character Locker' and wrote a tribute to actor Lee Soon-jae, and this time I want to change it to 'Joo Seong-cheol's Building Locker' to talk about 'Jongmyo'.
