A nice selection of reviews this week including a number for The Yellow Sea and three from The Hollywood Reporter. Since it is Jopok Week here on MKC, I'm happy to note some reviews for A Bittersweet Life and Righteous Ties.
Enjoy!

The Weekly Review Round-up is a weekly feature which brings together all available reviews of Korean films in the English language (and sometimes French) that have recently appeared on the internet. It is by no means a comprehensive feature and additions are welcome (email pierceconran [at] gmail [dot] com). It appears every Friday morning (GMT+1) on Modern Korean Cinema. For other weekly features, take a look at Korean Cinema News, and the Korean Box Office Update. Reviews and features on Korean film also appear regularly on the site.

Great blog you have here! Thanks for bringing light to all these Korean films. I usually only hear about the ones that make it to the major festivals.
ReplyDeleteThanks very much and it's my pleasure! I know it can be quite difficult to find some of these films, I hope they become more readily available in the near future.
