Film Zone
(Work in progress August 2008 - please leave feedback)
Welcome to LKL’s Film Zone. On this page you’ll find a very brief introduction to Korean film, links to LKL’s articles touching on Film, RSS feeds from Korean film-related websites and relevant external links.
First, a Korean Film 101.
You can catch up on the latest content in the film blogs here.
And you can support LKL by browsing the DVD pages of Yesasia, amazon.co.uk or amazon.com.
Next, some links. LKL’s Film category contains sundry news items related to film, the occasional film review (I don’t do a lot of these because there are so many other sites out there which do it better), director Q&As, notes from film studies and other similar content. Below you can find the 10 most recent posts, as well as 10 random film posts from the archives. To see all of LKL’s film articles, sorted by date, click here.
