[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'.

[Chua-young's Music Box] The Aesthetics of Repetition and Variation in 'Asako' and the OST 'netemo sametemo'

I am captivated by the music in films. Music conveys the intimate emotions of characters that cannot always be expressed through visible images and audible dialogues. It can also serve as a window into the hidden intentions of the creator. For me, understanding film music was a way to connect with the film. 'Chua-young's Music Box' listens to the voice of the film more closely through music. (P.S. I hope you read this while listening to the music.)
Boys gather in groups and light firecrackers. The firecrackers soar into the sky with a bang, startling Asako , who ducks for cover. At this moment, music begins to play, blending with the montage of the city, infusing the film with vitality.
