[Interview] “It’s a bigger sin not to release this video.” How should it have been handled? Director Tomoaki Fujino ①

When it was released in Japan, the film posed pointed questions about families with disabled relatives and issues of caregiving, and interest continues as it opened in South Korea on the 29th of last month.
There’s a film that has sparked buzz on every front, from the source material—an older sister’s schizophrenia and the parents’ confinement of her—to the production of a private documentary recorded by the family, and to the theater release format despite the absence of IPTV, VOD, OTT, and other...

[Kim Ji-yeon’s Jewel Box] 'Off to Work Again!' Star Kang Ki-dong, the Sturdy Pillar of Korean Dramas

Anyone who watches Korean dramas has likely noticed Kang Ki-dong at least once — the reliably grounded actor whose supporting turns keep stealing scenes. In the tvN drama 〈Off to Work Again!〉, which concluded on the 28th, Kang played Jeon Gi-tae, a seven-year office veteran and a member of Saeum...

[Interview] “Stand by Me for Girls—Even if They Give Up the College Entrance Exam, They Can’t Lose the Animals!” ‘San-yang-deul’ director Yoo Jae-wook, actress Park Hye-jin ①

With the college entrance exam days away, the four girls—In-hye (Park Hye-jin), Seo-hee (Lee Seung-yeon), Jeong-ae (Park Hyo-eun), and Su-min (Choi Soo-in)—are shaken by news that the animals at the school’s animal-keeping facility will be euthanized.
In 2001, what were the girls from 〈Please Take Care of My Cat〉 doing about now? Maybe they’ve already grown up by now. Somewhere, they’re surely doing well. Even so, the descendants of the daydreamer Tae-hee (Bae Doo-na), who kept caring for strays, are being born again—and growing up—somewhere, as...

[Kim Ji-yeon’s Jewel Box] Han Ji-eun Gives the Best Scene-Stealing Performance of the First Half in 〈Notes from the Last Row〉

I am curious about people. Even actors already in the spotlight can be at their least visible moment right now. "Kim Ji-yeon's Jewel Box" introduces performers who are hitting new highs day by day. Buy the dip on tomorrow's breakout stars.
I would go so far as to say she has renewed a career-defining role — specifically Seon Min-hee in 〈Notes from the Last Row〉. For an actor in her 21st year since debut, this represents a new peak. Viewers and theatergoers who have followed Han Ji-eun for years already consider her well known, yet...
