About The London
Korean
Film Festival 2009
Hosted by the
Korean Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and organised jointly by the
Korean Culture Centre UK and the Korea
Creative Content Agency, the London
Korean Film
Festival enters its 4th year. The Festival will run for 18 days from
the 1st to 18th November, touring 3 cities – London,
Manchester and Nottingham – and has invited Korea’s 3 most eminent directors –
Park Chan-wook, Bong Joon-ho and Yang Ik-june to attend.
The London Korean
Film Festival 2009 will screen 25 feature films and 4 animations, 34 screenings
in total. In London, audiences will be invited to the
prestigious Barbican Centre and the British Film Institute. The Barbican Centre boasts a variety of
programmes: the Opening Gala with Director Park Chan-wook, Q & As, Animation Day and a
Retrospective: Yu Hyun-mok including a lecture by Daniel Martin. Jury prize winner at Cannes this year, Park Chan-wook’s new feature
‘Thirst’ gets an exclusive Director’s Cut and introduction by the Director
himself at the Opening
Gala, chaired by BFI critic Tony Rayns. To commemorate one of
three
leading directors of Korea's 'Golden Age' (1959-70) and a pioneer of
realist cinema, three of
Director Yu Hyun-mok’s films chosen with the recommendation of the Korean Film
Archive will be shown as well as a short talk on Director Yu’s life and works.
The Animation Day comprises of 3 animations fit for all the family and a
workshop with fun activities for the children.
For the first
time, the London BFI is the platform for a Retrospective on a Korean director,
Bong Joon-ho, whereby ten of his films from Blockbuster hits, short films and
small-scale projects from his early career will be shown. On the last day, Tony
Rayns will chair the ‘Conversation with Director Bong Joon-ho’ after the
screening of his latest film, ‘Mother’. With the advantage of his expertise on
Asian cinema, Tony Rayns will also be giving a master class on Director Bong’s
works.
In addition, the
Korean Film Festival will also tour to 2 other regional cities so that a wider
audience can enjoy the best of Korean cinema. Following on from Oxford and
Warwick in 2007 and Liverpool in 2008 this year, Manchester and Nottingham will
be screening 3 films - ‘Mother’ and ‘Dream’ by Kim Ki-duk and ‘Breathless’ by
Director Yang Ik-june. Manchester’s Cornerhouse will also have a Q & A with Director Yang on the
6th November chaired by Liverpool Festival Director Kate Taylor. At
the Broadway Cinema in Nottingham, Director Bong will be present for a Q & A.
