Here’s the trailer for the London Korean Film Festival, taking part in cinemas across London and regionally in St Andrews, Bradford and Oxford.
Now in it’s 8th successful year the London Korean Film Festival (LKFF) 7th-22nd November, presented by the Korean Cultural Centre UK returns with a diverse line up, giving audiences across the capital and the UK an opportunity to celebrate the very best of contemporary Korean Cinema from this year with UK and European premieres of box office hits, critically acclaimed titles and retrospective programmes across various genres as well as offering unique access to the cream of Korean film talent with events from visiting directors and actors.
The LKFF continues to grow from strength to strength, showcasing both established and emerging talents in the Korean Film Industry. The festival’s Film Forum at the Korean Cultural Centre creates an opportunity for Korean and UK film industry experts and filmmakers to meet and help foster links between South Korea and UK to encourage funding investment, co-productions and access to post production.
The London Korean Film Festival programme takes place between 7th – 15th November across venues in London including the Odeon West End for Opening and Closing Night Galas, Odeon Covent Garden, Odeon Panton St, Odeon Kingston, Curzon Soho and the Korean Cultural Centre. For fans of Korean cinema who are not in London a selection of LKFF programme highlights will travel to Oxford, Bradford and St. Andrews between 16th – 22nd November.
The London Korean Film Festival opens on 7th November at the Odeon West End with the European premiere of HIDE AND SEEK. First time director HUH Jung’s home invasion thriller was an unexpected box office hit upon its South Korean release in August. The film topped the box office in its opening weekend, and reached 5 million tickets sales in less than 3 weeks. HIDE AND SEEK is an excellent low budget suspense thriller with punchy dialogue, smart characters, taut plot and precise direction. Director H U H J u n g will present the Opening Gala with the film’s star SON Hyun-joo hosted by critic and LKFF advisor Tony Rayns.
