¡ºKorean Cinema Today¡» has expansively succeeded¡ºKorean Film Observatory¡»,
which was published quarterly until last year.
In May 2009, the magazine was upgraded into bimonthly publication, stressing its journalistic characteristics and further intensively delivering current status and issues of Korean film industry.
With every issue, ¡ºKorean Cinema Today¡»has covered major issues of Korean films in-depth. We are at a point in time to wrap up the first decade of 21st Century. In order to do so,
we have ambitiously prepared a project that will critically summarize the last 10 years of Korean films called Best 10 Korean Films of the last 10 years.
We would like to gather precious opinions of those who have shown interest in Korean films from in and out of the country by selecting 5 Korean films that are made between January 1, 2000
and present day, that you believe are the best. Based on the survey results, 10 most picked films will be presented in our special feature story that will be published in our end of the year issue.
Your help and cooperation will be most essential.
By referencing the list of Korean films at KOFIC website (www.kofic.or.kr/english),
please write down titles of 5 films and send them to us by November 9, 2009.
Those who include their English name, nationality, and mailing address in their emails, their names will be included in the survey participant list of the feature story and the issue will be sent to them upon publication.
Thank you.
