(42) Park Chan-wook: Director with blood-coated lens
Tension and violence sell, but this may not be apparent to the vast majority of fans of “hallyu,” the much-discussed “Korean Wave” of pop culture that has swept outward from the shores of the peninsula since, roughly, the turn of the millennium.

(41) Im Kwon-taek brought Korean tradition to screen
A master of pansori ― a form of vocal Korean opera ― leads his adopted son and daughter through the backwaters of rural Korea. The troupe scratch an increasingly precarious living as itinerant musicians while their master, refusing to compromise with modernity, strictly trains them in the traditional art which is his only skill and his motive passion.

(38) Kang Chol-hwan: harbinger of N. Korean defectors
(38) Kang Chol-hwan: harbinger of N. Korean defectors
The North Korean resistance movement does not have many recognizable faces. This is understandable: a really brutal dictatorship would not allow any dissenter to stay alive. The fact that dissent was possible in Brezhnev’s Russia and, for that matter in Park Chung-hee’s South Korea, is yet another reminder that these two dictators were softies if compared to really serious pr...

(37) 'Yonsama': Korean love god captures Japanese hearts
Some years ago, this writer climbed into a taxi in Seoul. As is commonly the case, the driver asked where I was from. On hearing “the United Kingdom” he responded, “Aha! Beckham!” Then, in excellent Konglish, he continued, “U.K. ― David Beckham! Korea ― Bae Yong-joon!”

(36) Stalin had direct impact on Korea in 1945-53 period
Like it or not, the history of Korea in the last 150 years has often been shaped by external forces and therefore by foreign political leaders.

For many people, he became the embodiment of brutality and state terror on an unprece...

(35) Hiddink: hero from Holland and Korea‘s football magician
It was a balmy early summer evening on June 4, 2002, as pre-match, the national anthems of Poland and South Korea blared across the Busan World Cup Stadium. But the heated atmosphere in the stands was not due simply to the weather.

(34) Ahn Eak-tay: composer of national anthem
More or less every Korean has heard of Ahn Eak-tay, the composer who created the country’s national anthem. This is, indeed, his most remarkable achievement, but he should be remembered for many other things as well.
