A nice gossipy item from the Chosun Ilbo:
Kim [Ki-duk] went to Jungbu Police Station in Seoul to obtain a permit to manufacture a model gun for his new film. But his seedy appearance inspired little confidence, and when he kept repeating the phrase, “The leading man’s gun, the leading man’s gun,” police decided he must be a disturbed vagrant
I look forward to seeing the film, which I’m assuming is Arirang.
