Podcasts about korean film

I sat down with scholar, Nilesh Kumar to explore how Korean cinema has reflected shifting notions of gender, identity, and social structure across decades. From the angry men of the Korean New Wave to the defiant heroines of modern streaming hits, this conversation examines how bodies on screen become battlegrounds for power, memory, and desire. We begin by talking about how technology defines Park Chan-wook's groundbreaking movie Oldboy, as well as its absence of allegory, signaling the start of post-modern Korean cinema. Then, we explore three main themes in Korean cinema across time: Masculinity, femininity, and queer representation. The first section sees us discuss Chilsu and Mansu (1988), Peppermint Candy (1999), A Single Spark (1995), Whale Hunting (1984), Burning (2018), and Parasite (2019). We then turn our attention to Hostess Cinema (1974-1982), Yeong-ja's Heydays (1975), Right Then, Wrong Now (2015), Ballerina (2023), Han Gong Ju (2013), and My Sassy Girl (2001). Finally, we look at King and the Clown (2005), Moonlit Winter (2019), Mine (2021), The Handmaiden (2016) as well as the importance of Seo Dong-jin and Paul B. Preciado. I was particularly impressed by how Nilesh put each section in context, describing the importance of the socio-economic and political conditions of the time. Nilesh Kumar is from England, of Gujarati-Indian background, and is based in South Korea. He is a Film Curator and co-founder of the Seoul-based underground-movable cinema, STEAK FILM and the sexuality themed, STEAK CINEMA. His topics of writing have included contemporary queer South Korean culture, South Korean ‘hostess' cinema (1974-82), and 6th Generation Chinese Cinema.

Seth decided to scar Ian with his pick of the week and chose the 2003 Korean film Oldboy. This movie is crazySupport the Show.

Park Chan-wook is a master of movie making. And he's seemingly getting better with age. Leaving the sex and violence of previous hits such as Oldboy, JSA, and The Handmaiden behind him, Decision to Leave / 헤어질 결심 (2022) explores the relationship between a Korean man and a Chinese woman, completely incompatible, seemingly madly in love, and destined to destroy each other. These two roles are played expertly by Tang Wei and Park Hae-il. "The moment you said you loved me, your love ended. And the moment your love ended, my love began.” The movie is a piece of art: a poem. It encourages you to watch it multiple times, with each viewing providing greater insight into the layers constructed: through sound, language, visuals, and mis-en-scene. I sat down with two Korean women, Jimin and Yunsuh, and a Chinese woman, Jessie, to explore this movie from a variety of perspectives: art, beauty, gender, love, and morality. Each of them provided views and insights I would never have found myself. And yet, it still feels like there is so much that went unsaid.   Discussion Outline  0:00 First Impressions 13:40 Park Chan-wook and Gender 18:46 Park Chan-wook's Style 25:45 Is Decision to Leave Romantic? 34:58 Asian Vibes: The Mountains and the Sea 43:06 Tang Wei 1:08:25 Poetry, Yeokbek, and McGuffins 1:19:30 The Ending of the Movie  1:38:50 Haejoon: The Male Lead 1:59:52 Park Chan Wook and the Oscars 2:08:00 A movie, a Book, a Song   Korea Deconstructed by David Tizzard  ▶ Get in touch: datizzard@swu.ac.kr ▶ Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=62047873 ▶ Watch us on Youtube: /davidtizzard ▶ Find us on Insta: https://www.instagram.com/koreadeconstructed ▶ Listen on iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/kr/podcast/korea-deconstructed/id1587269128 ▶Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5zdXkG0aAAHnDwOvd0jXEE ▶ Listen on podcasts: https://koreadeconstructed.libsyn.com/ ▶ Music: Rail Gun by Disorientalz

We're back for our first full-length episode as we peel back the layers of reality TV's latest sensation, Vanderpump Villa. We scrutinize the show's evolution from the authentic drama of early Vanderpump Rules to the current, more orchestrated chaos. We share our hate of the Villa's villains, Marciano and Eric, and weigh them against the unforgettable Jax Taylor. Then, for the second half of the episode, we're giving you our full review of the dark Korean film, "Exhuma." We recount the film's gripping narrative, complete with exorcists, geomancers, and funeral directors caught in a web of the supernatural. Spoilers are part of the package, as we reveal the dire consequences of defying the supernatural's sacred laws. Watch out for new episodes every Sunday, wherever podcasts are found.

In episode 36 of the 'NoSoKoPo', Jay introduces details of the shows's upcoming special guest, James Turnbull, author/founder of The Grand Narrative (https://thegrandnarrative.com) and does so by recording a 'live in Saigon' segment, just before his flight to South Korea, where he intends to spend a few months. You'll not only hear a tiny piece of this interview with James Turnbull at the start but even a little more at the end of the epsiode.Once again, Jay touches on the Korean influence in Vietnam, speaks a little about Chuseok (and the Asian mid Autumn festival in general), the Busan International Film Festival 2023 (BIFF) and the upcoming and 18th London Korean Film Festival (LKFF - more details over at MiniMiniMovie.com) and the soon-to-be-10th anniversary of the tragic Sewol ferry (세월호) incident.A moment is also taken to explain the direction Jay - and hopefully Tim too - will take this Not So Korean Podcast in the future. Yes... A lot is covered in this special episode but perhaps the big question is... Will Jay, on this 9th time in South Korea stay to experience his first cold December there?

Did you know North Korea had a booming film industry? Yes, the second Great Leader, Kim Jong Il, was a huge film buff. He had his own vast library of films, he produced many films and yes, he even kidnapped a famous South Korean director Shin Sang Ok to make North Korean movies. Pulgasari was the work of Kim as the executive producer and Shin as director.  Pulgasari is a kaiju film (like "Godzilla") set in ancient Korea. Dan and Sug explain the movie in detail (spoiler alert) and break it down for you so that you don't have to see it yourself. North Korea is a fascinating place, watching this movie gave our hosts an inside look into the Hermit Kingdom. ---LINKSPulgasari full movieDan's full, epic review of PulgasariSupport the show

PART TWO ('Return Of Aline') - Following on from the first part of this interview [in Episode 30], Jay continues his discussion with Korean adoptee, Aline Giordano about the recently released - and much acclaimed - film by Davy Chou, “Return To Seoul”, a film revolving around a Korean adoptee from France but finding herself [perhaps in more ways than one] in South Korea.As before, Aline and Jay also branch off onto other topics, such as Aline's work, her first time visiting Korea, creativity and how it can feel to be an adoptee. Of course, the conversation always 'returns' to the subject of the movie "Return To Seoul”, its music and music in general & music as therapy.Aline also tells us about whether she will ‘return to Seoul' herself and also talks more about her Gestalt therapy work. Furthermore, that film's use of translation & of more than one language is touched on, as is Aline & Jay's ability or non-ability to learn multiple languages.[It's probably worth noting that the audio (and the video) quality is better on Aline's side rather than mine - I've tired to make it as audible as possible though...] #ReturnToSeoul #RetouràSéoul #retouraseoul #리턴투서울 #KoreanDiaspora #koreanfrench #frenchkorean #davychou #parkjimin #ohkwangrok #AllThePeopleIllNeverBe #koreanadoptee #koreanadoption #adoptee #adopteevoices #thecureA version of this episode will also be available over on our newly created @notsokoreanpodcast channel - please feel free to subscribe to that!FURTHER INFO:Details about subjects covered or touched on in this episode and recent ones can be found below.Aline Giordano:https://alinegiordano.com/about-meReturn To Seoul:https://tickets.returntoseoul.comhttps://www.sonyclassics.com/film/returntoseoul/https://mubi.com/films/return-to-seoulMubi:https://mubi.com/films/return-to-seoulhttp://www.Mubi.comhttps://www.facebook.com/MubiUKhttp://www.Twitter.com/MubiUKhttps://www.Instagram.com/MubiUK (@MubiUK)[JASON and TIMOTHY's podcast episodes can ALSO be found in this PLAYLIST: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLi-ZZE-1zF1M50lsEie0d_oqMm2Tq3i-J] #NewMalden #KoreaTownThe interview was conducted and recorded on 10th May 2023.The music featured in this show is by the wonderful Kaya: http://www.kaya-music.co.ukSHOW INFOThe Not So Korean Podcast with Jay & Tim is recorded live from New Malden, the UK and Europe's largest Koreatown.

Welcome to the second episode [no. 27] of Series 2 of the 'NoSoKoPo' and in this show, we let you hear Jay and Tim's 'farewell chat', recorded just before Jason/Jay left for his few months in South Korea.The chat consisted of discussion about what or where the previous 12 months (& more than 25 epsiodes) had taken Jay and Tim and their lives in New Malden (aka KoreaTown UK), as well as vague plans whilst being apart and also what you lovely "Not So Korean Podcast" listeners may have to look forward to in future episodes.Tim & Jay also hint at future plans regarding a standalone YouTube channel and website [if you've heard epsiode 26 you'll know about these now - full details below too!] and Jason presented Timothy with a very apt gift, one which consisted of elements relating to 3 countries Tim has an interest in: Primarily though, South Korea and his native Canada, but also Thailand.[A huge thank you must go out to the collective behind - & friends of - the YouTubechannel, “Retired Working For You”, especially Allan and Khun It…] It was a poignant and rather touching time, and just after Tim & Jay had set-off on their last [2022] bicyle ride together. In fact, a video overview of that day can be seen here: https://youtu.be/Kjy9o5FYVYA (on Jason Verney's channel) AND/OR via https://youtu.be/1mvpoIle-Js (the NEW channel for the Not So Korean Podcast) FURTHER INFO:Details about subjects covered or touched on in this episode can be found below.Sewol:https://rememberingsewoluk.wordpress.comhttps://www.facebook.com/RememberingSewolUKhttps://www.instagram.com/sewol_uk/Jason Verney's "Reparation:http://www.Instagram.com/Reparation_Film (@Reparation_Film)https://www.imdb.com/name/nm6732314/https://youtu.be/UHr9fpvr7M4 (TRAILER)https://youtu.be/QOEy-VMs7ns"Retired, Working For You"https://www.youtube.com/@RetiredWorkingForYouhttps://retiredworkingforyou.com[JASON and TIMOTHY's podcast episodes can ALSO be found in this PLAYLIST: https://youtube.com/playlist?l...]#NewMalden#KoreaTownMain segment recorded on 2nd August 2022 in the Berrylands area, which is near to New Malden aka 'Korea-town UK'.The music featured in this show is by the wonderful Kaya:http://www.kaya-music.co.ukSHOW INFO:The Not So Korean Podcast with Jay & Tim is recorded live from New Malden, the UK and Europe's largest Koreatown.

This is our spoiler free review for Kill Boksoon. Join us as we chat about this bad ass Mom/Assassin who's the best at what she does, while trying to be a better mother in this slightly bloated action film from the mind of Byun Sung-hyun.Kill Boksoon is streaming exclusively on Netflix March 31st 2023.

Today's movie premiered at Cannes 2022 and was the Cambodian entry for Best International Feature at this year's Oscars (though it didn't make it off the shortlist). It follows newcomer's Park Ji-Min's Freddie as she returns to Korea for the first time since her adoption as a baby by French parents. Our guest is comedian Josh Johnson, whose new special Up Here Killing Myself is on Peacock. After unpacking this new movie, everyone tries their best at a brand-new (and extremely trivial) movie trivia game about movie time jumps.What's GoodAlonso - Marry Me a Little by Roy KirbyDrea - Jimmy CarterJosh - NHL ‘95 for Sega GenesisIfy - Pine Street BiscuitsITIDICa).  Women of Color See (Minor) Gains in Top-Grossing Movie Rolesb).

Talk about a two-hand spectacular! We've got Nikole Beckwith, the director of one phenomenal indie two-hander (Together Together, starring Ed Helms and Patti Harrison) talking about the two-hander debut from director Charlotte Wells (in which the two “hands” are Paul Mescal and Frankie Corio). And only two of our usual hosts are here (which was totally planned, look how nice it all lines up, no holes in this story!). Then there's a quiz about – what else – Two-Handers! (A two-hander is a movie that mainly focuses on on two leads, in case that wasn't clear from context.)What's GoodDrea- Birthday float tank visitNikole - fresh snowAlonso - Liza Minnelli's album w/ Pet Shop BoysITIDICThis past holiday weekend was the strongest at the box office in a whileNetflix is planning a lot of Korean programming for 2023Sundance 2023 Has Begun!Staff PicksDrea - Saint OmerNikole - The CathedralAlonso - Slither (1973)We're sponsored this week by MasterClass.Get unlimited access to EVERY MasterClass, and as a Maximum Film listener, you get 15% off an annual membership! Go to MasterClass.com/MAXFILM.With:Drea ClarkAlonso DuraldeNikole BeckwithProduced by Marissa FlaxbartSr. Producer Laura Swisher

Leave your preconceptions that history is difficult and boring at the door! It's a fun time to look at Korea via the lens of history. Today's Topic: 한국의 영화 감독 박찬욱 (A Korean film director Park Chan-wook)

Guest: Jason Bechervaise, Film critic and visiting professor at Korea University.1. Korean Film streaming in China2. King's Affection (연모) at the International Emmys3.

“The closer you look, the harder you fall.” Park Chan-wook cross-pollinates a police procedural with a femme fatale romance in his latest film. Swirling around two lost souls navigating a web of murder, deceit, and desire to desperately cling to their perverse affair, Decision to Leave is a sensual puzzle box. We discuss the illustrious director's filmography, the painterly craft behind the movie, and the inscrutable Tang Wei.

Greetings Programs! This week on the podcast, Matt and Simon take a look at a pair of wayward bothers in the new AppleTV+ release Raymond & Ray and the Cannes Film Festival Best Director winning Decision to Leave from the great Park Chan-wook.

It's Pete's pick this week! We're calling this the "Pete's Pick Extravaganza"!!!!  The guys decided to make Pete feel more at home and a member of the show by letting him bring a personal favorite to the table to discuss. He brought the Korean Horror Sensation "Thirst" a vampire tale that is definitely not 'Twilight'...definitely not. Listen along as Pete and Nate lose themselves in what Pete describes as an artful representation of a classic love story intertwined into the macabre from acclaimed director Park Chan-wook (Old Boy). Pete and the guys break the movie down into manageable bites (lol) and give it the attention it deserves. So sit back and relax as the guys take you down a dark and bloody story that can only be described as an unusual take on the vampire mythos.  Oh! What did Charlie think of Pete's pick this week... well, you'll have to listen to find out...it doesn't disappoint!!    

This episode is all about Korean cinema in the late 90s/early 2000s, with a tiny bit of Parasite discussion!

Why might a brand use videos to capture our attention more so than pictures? How can someone in the spotlight manage to maintain a private life? Have you explored any Korean dramas lately? Sikemi Williams, PMP won a Mid-Atlantic Emmy in 2019 for her work on the CCPTV show Strange College. She's a talented video producer with over 300 subscribers on YouTube. She is a Senior Project Manager at the non-profit organization Collaborative Solutions for Communities.Sikemi taught me, in this episode, that amber filters in videos draw the viewer in, you can access a large repository of Korean films at viki.com, and the popular Korean actor Gong Yoo (have you seen the movie Train to Busan?) has a very active fan base but stays off social media himself.Thank you to Sikemi Williams for joining me for this episode of When You Grow Up Podcast. We faced a couple technical issues along the way and this was by far the hardest episode to edit on my podcasting journey because of a number of recording drops. I have really appreciated Sikemi's guidance during my experience on the PMI-DVC Marketing & Communications Committee, led by Frank Anbari. A few references you may be interested in reading more about:Shechemee YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/c/OluwasikemiWilliamsStrange College, CCPTV series: https://www.strangecollege.net/Collaborative Solutions for Communities: https://www.wearecsc.org/Issa Rae; producer, writer, director: https://www.issarae.com/Viki.com, free resource for watching Korean filmsGong Yoo, popular Korean actor, fan Twitter account: https://twitter.com/Gong_Yoo_JPFollow along:whenyougrowup.orgwww.instagram.com/whenyougrowup_podcast/#wygupodcast #podcast #career #family #personalgrowth #professionalgrowth #mentor #rolemodel #Koreanfilm #movies

The first non-English language film to win the Best Picture Oscar, Parasite lit not just the critics alight but punters too. Rarely has one film - a relatively low budget, highly culturally specific film at that - created such a global talking point. Who or what is to blame here? Is it capitalism? Class warfare?
