Look now, I’m as excited as the next person for all things Kim Seon-Ho, but the way The Tyrant banks on his popularity and then gives him about 5 minutes of screen time simply baffles me. Just because someone is ostensibly the “main” character of the show doesn’t mean you’ve got yourself a Hannibal Lecter who can show his face for 15 minutes and win an Oscar for it.

I went into The Tyrant completely blind, and so I had no idea it was made by the same people who made the movie The Witch Pt. 1: The Subversion. Though if I had known, I don’t think it would’ve made...

That being said, prior to Welcome to Samdalri, Ji Chang Wook appeared in another drama named The Worst of Evil.

Welcome to Samdalri: The Plot

Welcome to Samdalri has yet to release an official trailer,...

Stars: Kang Tae-Ju, Kim Seon-Ho, Justin John Harvey, Go Ara, Kang-woo Kim | Written and Directed by Park Hoon-jung

The Childe is the latest film from Korean writer/director Park Hoon-jung which means it comes with some pretty big expectations. Hoon-jung started his career as the writer of I Saw the Devil before going on to write and direct an impressive list of films including The New World, The Witch: Part 1 – The Subversion, and The Witch: Part 2 – The Other One.

The Childe sees him stepping away from the telekinetic madness of The Witch and its sequel and returning to somewhat more realistic subject matter involving Marco (Kang Tae-Ju). Marco is a boxer, fighting in various illegal matches in Manilla and using the money to care for his seriously ill mother. His situation is complicated by the fact he’s what is disparagingly referred to as a Kopino, half Korean, half Filipino,...

Park Hoon-jung is a name best known for strong, stylised fast-paced thrillers. Starting from his writing credits, which include such greats as “I Saw the Devil” and “The Unjust”, to his directorial debut “The Showdown” and his last work “The Witch Part 2: The Other One”, he is known for his tense writing and direction on thrillers. Over time, these thrillers have also been known to evolve into including fabulously crafted action sequences. His latest work “The Childe” is another such work in a similar vein.

The Childe is available from Wellgo USA

Marco Han is a half-Korean half-Filipino kid, or a Kopino as such individuals are derogatorily called, who lives somewhere in Philippines with his very sick mother, trying to earn money for her medicines and operations by boxing and gambling. In a bid to see if he can get help for her operation, he tries to find his long-absent father,...

‘The Tyrant’ director Park Hoon-jung is behind ‘The Witch’ films.

South Korea’s Acemaker movieworks has sealed deals on Park Hoon-jung’s upcoming action film The Tyrant (working title) and actor Jung Woo-sung’s directorial debut A Man Of Reason to a slew of territories.

The Tyrant has pre-sold to Germany (Splendid), Taiwan (MovieCloud), Southeast Asia (Purple Plan), Thailand (Neramitnung Film), Cis (Paradise Group) and inflight (Eagle).

Director Park is the filmmaker behind hit features The Witch: Part 1 and Part 2 and Venice title Night In Paradise as well as upcoming action feature The Childe, which is in post-production.

The Tyrant...

Park Hoon-jung is about to play a big role in Kim Seon-ho's comeback. The actor, who was embroiled in controversy following public allegations from an ex-girlfriend, will be seen in not one but two features by the prolific genre writer/director, the first of which is called “The Childe” and is gearing up for release next month.

Synopsis

“The Childe” will focus on a man born to a Korean father and a Filipino mother who aspires to be a boxer. He travels to the Philippines in the hopes of tracking down his father, and in the process, he gets mixed up with some bad people.
