[Joo Sung-chul's Locker] What Are the Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) in 'Warfare' and 'The Hurt Locker'?

I am drawn to objects in movies. I find myself wondering why the director, cinematographer, production designer or actor put that particular object in front of the camera. 'Joo Sung-chul's Locker' records the objects in movies that quietly catch my eye.

[Interview] Gong Hyo-jin on the laugh-and-cry power of 'Gyeongju Trip' (1)

[Interview] Gong Hyo-jin on the laugh-and-cry power of 'Gyeongju Trip' (1)

Gong Hyo-jin’s acting carries an unusually persuasive power. Even a premise in which a character sets out to punish a heinous criminal herself, and a genre blend that shuttles relentlessly between comedy and tears, feel entirely believable because of her.

[Chu A-young's Music Box] How Don Hertzfeldt's 'It's Such a Beautiful Day' and Smetana's 'Vltava' Capture Life's Beauty

I am drawn to music in films. Music often conveys a character's intimate emotions in ways images and dialogue cannot, and it can open a window onto a creator's hidden intent. For me, understanding a film's music has been one way into the film itself.
