Who’s Your 'Triangle'? Mixed-Gender Groups That Come to Mind After Watching 〈Wild Sing〉

It’s one of those songs you’ve never heard before, but it sounds familiar. The stage looks new, yet you get a strong sense of déjà vu. If you saw the film that opened on June 3, 〈Wild Sing〉, you probably felt that.

[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.
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.

[Kim Ji-yeon’s Jewel Box] Right Now Is Yoon Byung-hee’s Prime

I’m interested in people. Even actors already drawing attention may be less famous today than they will be tomorrow. 'Kim Ji-yeon’s Jewel Box' introduces performers reaching new highs by the day. Think of it as spotting a breakout before everyone else does.
Writing about an actor who seems to be everywhere on TV can feel almost too obvious, but Yoon Byung-hee is in the midst of another prime that is impossible to ignore. Yoon Byung-hee has recently appeared in 〈My Royal Nemesis〉, 〈Sold Out on You〉 and 〈21segi Daegunbuin〉 — three dramas that aired...

[Joo Seong-cheol’s Locker] Zombie Things That Don’t Flinch Even When Shot: Korea’s First Zombie Film, “Kwe-si” (1981)

I can’t help but fixate on the objects in the movies. I find myself getting deeply lost in thought about why—of all things—this director, cinematographer, art director, or even the actor, placed that item in front of the camera. “Joo Seong-cheol’s Locker” is a record of the objects in films that landed on my eyes with a light, delicate stomp.
〈Gun-chae〉surpassed 3 million viewers in just 10 days. According to the Korean Film Commission’s integrated computer network, it reached the 3 million mark on May 30, its 10th day after release, four days earlier than 〈King and the Man〉, which drew 16 million viewers.
