The stone

I wanted to be a film director from childhood.
Yes! Actually, I completed my bachelor degree in Motion picture
and Production at Dongguk University in South Korea, with my course projects focused on motion picture planning, direction, scenario, production technology, etc.
At that time, my interest focused on how to give happiness and impression to people through my story.
I like to make a story of the film still, even though I've been working as a game designer. If I had gotten film directing job, I would have worked in the film industry....

Anyway, I really want to make my movie again!!!!

The year was 1997 when this photo was taken of all my project team.
GooYoung, SangWoo, SungHye, HwaYoung, SoonAe...whom I worked with. I was so thank to them. but I couldn't expression enough to say thank you.
So I always want to say thank you to them.

Well, I'd like to introduce one of my films, "The Stone"
This Film which includes a story about a girl's happenings in 3 hours.
It was based on my real-life.

On an ordinary night. SoonAe fights with her brother as usual with the TV channel. While fighting, she gets upset because of her brother as well as her mother always being on her brother's side.

She decides to run away from home.
When she came out, the watch was ticking to 8 o'clock.
SoonAe watches cartoon at the cartoon cafe, eats o-deng by the street, calls up her friends but later she find out that she has nothing else to do.
After sitting on the park's bench for a little while, she finds her self walking towards her home.
A very silent night... She throws a stone to her house.
There's no sign of her family... She feels angry... Soon she kicks the front door of her house. Just after a few seconds, there's a sound of the door opening. It's her brother.

"Hey, you stupid! Come on in"
Soon-Ae cries just after seeing her brother. She goes inside the house as if she was forced to regardless to her will.
This is how SoonAe's run away ended. It all happened in 3 hours.

2008 Oscar Result_Best Picture

Miramax
Joel & Ethan Coen
Running time:122 min
Box office rank:#42/$61

It's a well done movie, that's all.
I Just thought it was really long and couldn't wait for it to be over.
I don't understand why it's getting so many awards.
The excessive violence became completely comical after a point.

Gloomy Sunday

This Film was directed by Rolf schubell.
It's a tragic story about three characters: Llona, who is very beautiful, Laszlo, who loves Llona and her lover, Andras, who is her other lover and a composer of "Gloomy sunday"
It's a beautiful film but a desperate story. When I saw the cover of this film, I thought It was exciting and funny, but It was so dark.
I was a little bit bored and very goomy after this film finished.
but It has always stuck in my mind.... very strange.....

Forrest Gump

Forrest Gump is very simple person who ends up doing very extraordinary things. It's a simple story that is rooted is the relationships of people. Forrest and his mother, Forrest and Jenny, Forrest and Dan....
I think that is really, the kind of the glue that holds things together.
I believe that Forrest is an example of how life is there for the taking. It's just a matter of reaching out and grabbing it. Just as he says, "stupid is as a stupid does" well destiny is as a destiny does.
There is only one thing you can do, and you can get a lot out of your life if you really want it.
I think Forrest Gump is a amazing film for everyone.


"Life was like a box of chocolates, you naver know what you're gonna get."

I need to chill out

"Hyona, why are you such in a hurry? You look stressed. It's okay, Relax~~." I certainly didn't mean to appear stressed.
One of my colleagues makes me so furious!! He's always trying to make me look bad!
ahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah~~~
Would you please chill out? I'll let it go at that.

Snow White and Goofy

When I was young, I liked the cartoon film very much.
I watched the cartoon film video again and again.
Even though I watched same film every day, I wasn't bored. Especially I like Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs!!
When I was back from the office, I bought this toys simply because I liked it. It looks as pretty as round cheeks.

"Mirror, mirror, who is the prettiest of them all?"
"Mirror, mirror, who is the prettiest of them all?"

"Mirror, mirror, who is the prettiest of them all?"
"Well....Hyona is, of course?"

National Treasure No.1

A fire broke out at Sungnyemun a couple of days ago.
The overnight fire left South Korea's top cultural landmark in ruins. When I wached this situation on TV, I was so sad that I broke out into tears. Some of my earliest memories are of a picnic in Sungnyemun with parents. It was a great time for me and the place was overlaid with memories of my childhood.
I am sad. Memories of the past filled my mind....

Moulin Rouge

"Moulin Rouge" is as deeply romantic as any film in recent memory. The story is about a beautiful musical singer of Moulin Rouge, Satin, and a poor writer Christian's love.
My favorite director is Baz Luhrmann who directed R&J. His movies are always amazing. It made me happy and I enjoyed it. So I'd been looking forward to this film and I wasn't disappointed with the finished product.
I really enjoyed the performances of Nicole Kidman and Ewan Mcgregor, and I thought they had great screen chemistry that made me believe that Satine and Christian.
They are both reasonably good sinngers, too. and duets were particularly good. Their voices complement each other.
It was the first movie which I saw in the cinema twice. I couldn't come down at that time after enjoying the movie. So I recommended it to my mother, and we went to the movie again.

I suddenly miss my mom so much....
