Kim Hyun-seok

História

KIM Hyun-seok is a new cinematographer who is praised for capturing sadness so beautiful as to be frightening in just two films, Poetry(2010) and A Brand New Life(2009). That Poetry is the most recent film by [LEE Chang-dong] and A Brand New Life by [Ounie Lecomte] was produced by LEE are the commonality that ties him to the two films. KIM is credited for successfully condensing beauty and violence in both of the films. While a directors directing drives the making of a film, KIMs camera shows a restrained gaze at the characters at an optimal distance, leaving an impression that cannot be easily passed over. The cool blue light that filled up the frames of Poetry and the afterglow left behind indifferently by his camerawork in A Brand New Life make KIMs upcoming images that much more anticipated.

Kim-Gun
Director of Photography
KIM-GUN searches for the whereabouts of a young man whose identity has sparked a national controversy over the 1980 May 18 Gwangju Uprising. Starting with the vague memories of those who had crossed paths with him during that time, the film tracks down those who participated in the Uprising as “Citizen Soldiers.” It also traces KIM’s final steps, based on photographic clues found in the firearms he carried and the “Surveillance Truck No. 10” in which he rode. By identifying KIM-GUN, we believe that we can find valuable leads to resolving the ongoing controversy over May 18. Why did a nameless young man join the Uprising? Why did he take up arms? Where has he gone afterwards? It is the answers to these questions that the film seeks.
