25th June : Dancing Queen (Korean/2012/124mins)
Dir.Lee Seokhoon
Jung-hwa, also known as Shinchon's Madonna, was famous in her heyday as the talent of the town, and she is offered the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity of becoming a singerdancer. But chasing her thrilling dream comes to an abrupt halt by her husband's shocking declaration: He's running for mayor of Seoul.
26th June : Hahaha (Korean/2010/116mins) Dir.Hong Sangsoo
Filmmaker CHO Moonkyung plans to leave Seoul to live in Canada. So days before his departure, he meets his close friend BANG Jungshik who is a film critic, at a nearby mountain to drink ‘makgeolli’ a Korean traditional alcoholic beverage made from rice. After a few rounds, they find out that coincidentally, they have
both been to the same small seaside town, Tongyeong recently. They decide to reveal their accounts of the trip over drinks, under the condition that they only stick to pleasant memories. Not realizing that they were in the same place, at the same time, and with the same people, the two’s reminiscence of a hot summer unfolds like a catalogue of memories.
27th June : The Host (Korean/2006/119mins) Dir.Bong Joon-ho
An American military pathologist dumps over 200 bottles of formaldehyde into the sewer system, leading into the Han River. Over the next few years, a strange amphibious monster emerges from Han River and
attacks people at random. Till it snatches up the main protagonist's daughter and returns to its hideout under Wonhyo Bridge. Winner of the Best Film at The Blue Dragon Awards, the film deals with the implications of the American military presence in Korea.
28th June : Take Off (Korean/2009/137mins) Dir.Yong-hwa Kim
It is the year 1996. A small Korean town is undergoing a large-scale construction in preparation for the Winter Olympics bid. In the middle of the construction, the local committee receives a report that they do not have sufficient athletes to compete. They decide to form a ski jump team in order to represent the event. Former American Junior alpine athlete Bob is an adoptee who came to Korea in search of his mother. With 4 other non-experienced athletes, he forms the first Korean ski jump team. From there on, there is no turning back. It's a challenge they are committed to.
