South Korean movies will change your life

Not at all.

Thanks for the suggestions OP.

There was a Korean (I think) movie I watched on a flight once. The story was about a group of friends sharing their cell phone messages/pics/videos to each other and some stuff happened after. I can't remember exactly but I remember being entertained.

Anybody have any idea which movie that was?

I remember there there being a dinner party with everyone putting their phone in the middle of the table or something.

Intimate Strangers (201

I also saw a movie back in the day I think it may have been Korean but can't remember the name. It had a blind guy walk into a bar/restaurant and there's a sick Martial Arts fight scene. They were in a forest can't remember much more. The reason I think it was a Korean is because the story line was deep and had alot of twists. Let me know if it rings a bell.

I think that Intimate Strangers is a remake. I saw a French film with the same premise a few years ago.

Memories of Murder >

Bongs best movie imo.

 

[duncarooos]

Might as well change this to the South Korean Movies/Drama Thread. I swear my wife aint watched K-Dramas until the pandemic and she's like 5-6 deep now.

Op have you tried their fried chicken?

Just peeped a 4hr long joint called elephants standing still.
Was super well done, shot beautifully even tho most of the film was shadowy, but that’s for good reason. Acting was awesome. Worth it to get they it.

the director killed himself afterward, it’s got layers. Definitely worth checking out.

Haha, I like to cook I made some a few times. The trick is frying it twice for the extra crisp.

Hmmm maybe. Can you tell me the title (Eng or Kor) I'll YouTube it. Much appreciated

No mention of Age of Shadows? Damb near classic film from a few years ago. Has some of the biggest names/faces in Korean cinema and one of the most prolific modern directors. A bit long, but the whole experience was amazing.

My current girl put me on. I seriously had no idea.

Honestly the new found exposure has made quarantine so much more manageable.

Couple of my favorites that are more recent:

The Handmaiden
A Taxi Driver
The Man From Nowhere
Believer
The Wailing
The Call

so what dramas "she got you" watching, this a safe place
