Korean films have set a record by taking two awards this year at the Cannes Film Festival.
Song Kang-ho became the first Korean male actor to win the Best Actor award for his role in "Broker," Japanese director Hirokazu Kore-eda's Korean debut with an all-Korean cast and dialogue.
Park Chan-wook, a director who has frequently been nominated for and swept numerous awards at various international film festivals, was named Best Director this time for his detective mystery, "Decision to Leave."
