Exquisite and peaceful pictures, unique humor and moving plots, all these elements confirm that South Korean films have come of age. Chinese movie buffs can't help noticing the charm of the films from one of their nearest neighbors.
And now they have a chance to see not only the country's latest films, but the stars too! A South Korean Film Festival will take place in Beijing on December 2.
Twelve films, including My Tutor Friend, the Classic, Eorin Shinbu, Old Boy, and Wonderful Days were selected from 20 candidates to dazzle Beijing audiences. Most of them have never been shown in China before.
Besides the movies, the 250-strong superstar delegation is another highlight of the festival. Celebrities, like Jeon Ji Hyun, Cha Tae Hyun, Ahn Jae Wook, Jang Dong Gun and Kim Hee Sun will meet local fans. And the girls' dream lovers on the huge screen such as Won Bin, Song Seung Hun and Jang Hyuk are trying to adjust their schedules to come as well.
But that's not all. A concert of Chinese and South Korean movie songs and others related events will provide the fans the best ever opportunity to make their dreams come true.
