Download or read book Lee Jang Ho Paperback written by Kim See-Moo and published by Seoul Selection USA, Incorporated. This book was released on 2009 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lee Jang-ho's 1974 film Heavenly Homecoming to Stars was one of the most amazing debuts in the history of Korean film. During the 105 days after its premiere, some 465,000 viewers came to see it, a box office record for Korean film at that time. Its tremendous success owed itself to three main factors. First and foremost, the film boldly broke with the cliched framework that prevailed in the melodrama genre and aimed at a love story with a new kind of sensibility. [...] Another factor would be the stimulating directing prowess of then newcomer Lee Jang-ho. Lee diverged from the linear, one-track narrative style and experimented with complex plot construction, in the process experimenting with an editing style-making use of what almost seems like jump cuts-that still appears fresh today." --from "On the Director"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an introductory guide to Jang Sun-woo, one of the most controversial and talented Korean film directors. Written by Tony Rayns, a critic and also a film director himself, this book contemplates JangSun-woo films with a scholarly passion and delves deep into Jang's contradiction--that he knowingly and happily situates himself in the margins of the Korean film industry, producing work with popular appeal, a contradiction that exactly mirrors the rapid evolution of the film industry itself.
Download or read book Muye Dobo Tongji written by Chŏngjo ((Roi de Corée ;) and published by Turtle Press. This book was released on 2000 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1789, King Chongjo, ruler of the Yi dynasty, ordered General Yi Duk-moo to compile an official textbook on all martial art forms then present in Korea to preserve them for future generations. The result, the Muye Dobo Tongji, is the only surviving classical text on the Korean arts of war. Based on the earliest known Korean martial arts treatise, the Muye Chebo written in 1599, the Muye Dobo Tongji clearly shows the influence of the neighbouring Japanese and Chinese armies. Through hundreds of wars and invasions, Korean soldiers adapted battlefield skills and tactics from their enemies, creating a unique system of their own. Organised into 24 distinct disciplines comprised of empty hand fighting, weaponry and horsemanship, this book is an accurate historical snapshot of the warrior arts of the hermit kingdom in the late 18th century. The release of 'The Comprehensive Illustrated Manual of Martial Arts of Ancient Korea' marks the first time this volume is available in English. Carefully translated from the original text and illustrated with reproductions of ancient woodblock carvings, this book provides fascinating insights into Korea's martial arts legacy.
Download or read book Jin Woo written by Eve Bunting and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 2001-04-23 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David likes his family the way it has always been, just him and Mom and Dad. He never wanted to be a big brother. And he certainly didn’t want Jin Woo, the little baby from Korea, to join the family. Now Jin Woo is getting all the attention, and David feels as if no one cares about him anymore. But then a surprising letter helps him to understand that being a brother can mean being surrounded with more love than ever. Eve Bunting and Chris Soentpiet bring the same deep emotion that distinguished their previous collaboration, So Far from the Sea, to this moving story of an adoptive family that has love to spare.
Download or read book Bong Joon ho written by Chi-yŏn Chŏng and published by Seoul Selection USA, Incorporated. This book was released on 2008 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Film Studies. Asian Studies. This book is the result of efforts to reach a deeper and broader understanding of the director Bong Joon-ho, who has been the subject of a great deal of popular interest and attention in Korean society in spite of his relatively short filmography of three feature films. After the experience of Barking Dogs Never Bite, it appears that the director clearly came to understand what he had to do to relate the story he wanted to tell in the way most suited to the public, yet most in line with his own cinephile impulses. Memories of Murder and The Host were both major box office successes in Korean film, but at the same time, they were films that looked upon the wounds and failures of modern Korean history in the most perceptive and challenging ways. As a result, Bong Joon-ho became almost unique in present-day Korean film in his ability to break away from commercial and creative pressures and realize the kind of films he wants to, when he wants to.
