I’m quite the fan of Korean cinema these days. On occasion some folks ask me for recommendations but I tend to not remember the titles as much as I do the stories.
So, here are a couple of lists of top ten movies from Korea made in the first decade of the 21st century. I’ve seen about half of these myself and will be getting the rest into my Netflix queue today. Enjoy–I think you’ll find most of these better than the crap Hollywood is putting out these days.
Wife and I always did one and one on DVD night – one English and one Korean – so I have seen a lot of em.
I found most of them to be quite watchable and they passed the time well. Nothing was really profound but I hardly expect that from any movie I see regardless of where it is made.
Some of my favorites have been dumb, schlockey comedies with exaggerated characters – and there are no shortage of those!
I am looking around here to find a place the sells them for this dvd code for my wife to enjoy on movie nights once again.
Korean TV on the other hand….
Yeah, Korean comedy on TV is nothing to laugh about it.
Old Boy I thought was a masterpiece…
