  • Parasite”: Điện Ảnh Hàn Quốc Và Điện Ảnh VN Song Chi
    Phim “Parasite”: Điện Ảnh Hàn Quốc và Điện Ảnh VN Song Chi "Parasite" và Đạo Diễn Bong Joon-Ho Oscars lần thứ 92 đã qua đi đúng một tuần. Nhưng có lẽ với đoàn làm phim “Parasite” nói riêng và những người dân Hàn Quốc nói chung, niềm hạnh phúc và tự hào sẽ còn đọng lại khá lâu, khi bộ phim cùng lúc đoạt 4 giải quan trọng: Best Original Screenplay, Best Director, Best International Feature Film và Best Picture. Lần đầu tiên điện ảnh Hàn Quốc đoạt giải Oscars, cũng là lần đầu tiên trong lịch sử Oscars, một bộ phim không nói tiếng Anh đã đoạt giải Best Picture. Trước đó bộ phim đã giành được hàng loạt giải thưởng lớn: là bộ phim Hàn Quốc đầu tiên đoạt Cành Cọ Vàng (Palme d'Or) tại Liên hoan phim Cannes tháng 5.2019, Quả cầu vàng cho Phim nói tiếng nước ngoài hay nhất (the Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Language Film), Giải thưởng BAFTA cho Phim hay nhất không phải bằng tiếng Anh (the BAFTA Award for Best Film Not in the English Language). Như mọi giải thưởng lớn về văn học nghệ thuật, giải Best Picture của Oscars không phải năm nào cũng xứng đáng, có những năm rõ ràng phim đoạt giải không bằng một phim khác nằm trong số 5 lựa chọn cuối cùng. Nhưng năm nay chiến thắng của “Parasite” thật sự thuyết phục, mặc dù trước đó, khi “Parasites” lần lượt đoạt các giải Best Original Screenplay, Best Director, Best International Feature Film, tôi đã nghĩ có lẽ giải Best Picture sẽ thuộc về “1917” của Sam Mendes chăng.

As of November, the market share for Korean films in the domestic market stood at 55 percent, which indicates that the yearly market share of Korean films will be over 50 percent for the third year in a row. In the international arena as well, Korean films were invited to major international film festivals including Cannes, Berlin, Venice, Locarno, and San Sebastian and received a warm reception from critics and audiences. It is often said that the current prosperity of Korean cinema is due to the strong commitment and policies introduced by the KIM Dae-joong government in 1999 to promote Korean films.

  • To Film Sound Maps: the Evolution of Live Tone’S Creative Alliance with Bong Joon-Ho
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Repository@Nottingham From ‘Screenwriting for Sound’ to Film Sound Maps: The Evolution of Live Tone’s Creative Alliance with Bong Joon-ho Nikki J. Y. Lee and Julian Stringer Abstract: In his article ‘Screenwriting for Sound’, Randy Thom makes a persuasive case that sound designers should be involved in film production ‘as early as the screenplay…early participation of sound can make a big difference’. Drawing on a critically neglected yet internationally significant example of a creative alliance between a director and post- production team, this article demonstrates that early participation happens in innovative ways in today’s globally competitive South Korean film industry. This key argument is presented through close analysis of the ongoing collaboration between Live Tone - the leading audio postproduction studio in South Korea – and internationally acclaimed director Bong Joon-ho, who has worked with the company on all six of his feature films to date. Their creative alliance has recently ventured into new and ambitious territory as audio studio and director have risen to the challenge of designing the sound for the two biggest films in Korean movie history, Snowpiercer and Okja. Both of these large-scale multi-language movies were planned at the screenplay stage via coordinated use of Live Tone’s singular development of ‘film sound maps’. It is this close and efficient interaction between audio company and client that has helped Bong and Live Tone bring to maturity their plans for the two films’ highly challenging soundscapes.

Sono stato colpito dall’idea di un ammasso di ferraglia che si muove come un serpente, trasportando un gruppo di sopravvissuti che si dimenano e lottano gli uni contro gli altri, ineguali persino in questa Arca di Noè perché divisi in scompartimenti”. “Volevo indagare la natura dell’essere umano in situazioni estreme, sia che si fosse trattato di un serial killer efferato, di un mostro che emergeva dal fiume Hangang o di una madre che impazziva: Transperceneige era il mio destino”. “La graphic novel che ha fatto da canovaccio era straordinaria e nasceva da un’idea originale, ma ho dovuto inventare una storia completamente nuova, con personaggi inediti, e creare uno Snowpiercer nuovo e dinamico, intriso di energia cinematografica.

  • Song Kang-Ho and the Uncanny Face of the Korean Cinema
    ACTA KOR ANA VOL. 14, NO. 1, JUNE 2011: 33–71 SOMEWHERE BETWEEN ANTI-HEROISM AND PANTOMIME: SONG KANG-HO AND THE UNCANNY FACE OF THE KOREAN CINEMA By BRIAN YECIES This article explores the trajectory of Song Kang-ho’s on-screen performances from the release of his fourth film, Number 3 (1997), to one of his most recent films, Thirst (2009). As a case study, it reveals new insights about this popular and representative actor’s numerous screen personae and how they have enabled audiences to peer into a cine- matic surface that reflects back a mixture of anti-heroism and pantomime. Beneath the many costumes and performance styles he adopts, audiences have come to see a human being with everyday problems and concerns. In a way reminiscent of the French panto- mime clown Pierrot, Song’s characters reflect a depth of human feeling and compassion modulated by a comic undercurrent—the tension between these overlapping layers is precisely what holds his various personae together. Key words: Song Kang-ho, Korean Cinema, stardom, Park Chan-wook, Kim Jee-woon INTRODUCTION Every actor and actress constructs a persona over the course of his or her career, but few become stars. A star is an actor whose persona transcends the sum total of his or her performances (Belton 1994: 89). Song Kang-ho is a classic movie star whose acting ability is well known to the film industry and whose performances are appreciated by audiences in South Korea (hereafter Korea) and abroad. He has acted in some of the contemporary Korean cinema’s most profitable and critically acclaimed feature films, productions which have contributed to the national film industry’s current global notoriety.
