"Fanatic" (2021)

Directed by Oh Se-yeon

With Oh Se-yeon,...

Synopsis
A teenage girl who appears on a TV show as an idol singer's fan calls herself a 'seongdeok' (successful fan), because her idol appeared on the same program. Years later, the same idol singer is arrested on charges of gang rape and illegally filming and distributing sex tapes. The seongdeok, who has suddenly become a criminal's fan, decides to meet with other fans of the criminal singer in a confused state of anger and sadness. Fanatic begins with director Oh Se-yeon's own embarrassing past. The situation is funny but also unlaughable. After meeting with other fans in the same situation as herself, who are "suffering more because they'd loved", she eventually reaches the far-right Taegeukgi rally participants in front of Seoul Station, holding protests for the release of former president Park Geun-hye. An embarrassingly direct, poignant, and frankly introspective documentary full of profanity, this film is, above all, clever. (KANG Sowon)

"The Man Who Paints Water Drops" (2020)

Directed by Brigitte Bouillot, Kim Oan

"The Man Who Paints Water Drops" is a co-production between South Korea and France
Synopsis
Letter and Repetition: Echo of the Water Drop Painter, Kim Tschang-yeull's Work

-Water
Water is a recurring element in this movie and appears repeatedly in various forms, including rain, sea, glass of water, and puddles. Such a humorous way of healing is not only literal reflection and refraction of Kim's fundamental main theme, but also the way he exists in the world. Such an object is to immerse the audience in the obsession and microscopic detail associated with the writer's daily life.

-Repetition
This work focuses on the radical character of Kim Tschang-yeull's minimal and repetitive atmosphere through scenes, sounds, and repetition of words. One of the ways we use for this purpose is the repetitive phosphorus accumulation method. For example, a woman bends and gets up and bows again 10 or 15 times. You can experience this tremendous accumulation of gestures in your daily life.

-Separation
In his work, as in his life, Kim Tschang-yeull has a special relationship with the world of separation and patience, which he observes, expresses and sometimes tries to imitate. Therefore, the work expresses the world around him with patience through the separation of the streets of Seoul and Paris, the nature around his home, the kind of news he hears on the radio, and the kind of desire he has.
