And I think to what we should do from now on

time

I was sad and troubled because I am a director

Should I continue to do so?

What are the movies?

If someone died because of

images and stories that I have created,

would be really terrible!

I was shocked by the incident,

but I also lived a good time

As I had these 15 films, I wanted the realistic detail

Several times and It Happened That Almost Got hurt people

will drink with you, friend

Very good

is not a speech. . about being good or bad.

Basically ..

I need time to think back on my movies

After That incident, I can not write anymore.

But I still have much to say

There are some stunts in that movie

And scenes that involve ethical and moral issues.

I keep thinking if it is really

the case to make films like that

In the past, when i finished one

Instantly I Worked on the next one, as if I were a car

So I started making a movie Each year.

I did so. And that's how I got where I am now

awarded at festivals in Venice

and Berlin and invited to Cannes.

My films were distributed in many countries

At the time I was very happy and thankful

So what?

Friend, you're depressing.

I thought I was through with directing.

film, "Dream" was like a dream.

The next film was to talk about death.

But the meaning of death is changed after the accident.

To me death

was a doorway to another world of mystical

but I understood that death

may be a crime ... that shatters the dreams of a person

which can shorten the life of a person

And then

life has become difficult

After my first movie "Crocodile" The Death Treated with care.

One can not understand death

or talk about it easily without having first experienced

It can be considered a form of hope

Death and only ...

Now I consider ...

white turns black. Simple.

You write movies, books, poems about death

It is processed to give birth to abstract concepts.

But death is like a cliff.

And like a door that closes

A light goes off.

Death is ... very different from you and now.

Making movies with death in the scene ...

In many films of today die from hammers or axes.

And then?

A part of me longs to return to filmmaking Immediately

Truly

"I have to make a movie right now"

What if I forgot how? "

there is also this desire in me, you know?

A little '

Just a little ...

and I reached the goal I set for myself

Winning a Grand Prix in a festival,

or reach a worldwide box office records

People work and expect results, not so?

Something that no Korean film has ever reached

It is said that Korean films are improved

but none has received as the

other Grand Prix in a prestigious festival

I do not know why, but

Let me be the first to do so.

And humanly understandable, after all

So I continued to write, pushing me to make films

But the obsession has complicated things.

I felt stifled and locked,

because of this obsession.

Before "Dream that I did in 2008, I was not so

rushing as fast as a runner on the track!

I kept running ... no distractions

is how I made my 15 films.

So, this explains why

those films are rough, naive, innocent and very rushed.

Immediate.

Some critics appreciate others crushed Them Them

to part of the public hates Them, the other loves Them

But then I realized it was not right

I'm not saying I'm right, but there is a difference

I have lived and made films with passion.

I had never had a decent job before becoming a director

I am very happy to be a director, and a respectable one.

Worked at the factory at a recycling

metall Producing electric devices.

Also I did street art.

Back then

I always felt alone and felt sorry for myself

I never thought of getting respect from people.

But after he began making films ...

do not know ...

I became a so-called "world-class filmmaker."

you know

My films are seen in Europe

in Latin America in the United States, Russia,

in Germany, Eastern Europe.

Even in Israel

I was really gratified by the

fact that my films were seen in the world

I was happy and proud

Obviously it was not all roses I have also received much criticism

Many have criticized both at home and abroad

saying that my films are rough

does not matter if it deals with themes

that touch the heart,for they are still crude

How can I explain?

It was so ...

Making films was happy for me to work

But suddenly

and was like being hit by a hammer.

I wished the best for people who had worked with me

I offered the opportunity to

work for my two assistant directors.

One has "Rough Cut 'on my script

The other shot "Beautiful"

assistants have become directors

and have received many appreciations

After "Rough Cut '

director Jang Hun has received many offers from major

to make movies with them

But he stayed loyal and Decided

to make two more movies with me.

I'm grateful for this.

But while preparing "Poongsan"

the producer and the director of "Rough Cut"

left.

People would say "treason" That's what I think too.

but I prefer to say .. he left.

They left to make their interests

Just Like When They Came to me in the first place.

For Their Own Gain.

It was agreed to without my knowledge with large houses

With whom I could talk about it?

For months I have been tormented with these thoughts.

Those two who let me ...

in the midst of my shock resulting in a "Dream

I was flooded with a lot of

doubts about the craft of cinema.

Leave it that way. It was wrong.

Had they come to talk to me I would have laid off, I did so.

But fled like cowards

If I had been told clearly that

they wanted to make films with big houses

and take the opportunity I would not hurt so much

famous actors were involved,

but they took a chance and they are gone.

could not argue on this point

This still makes me sick and ...

in the relations between people ...

Seems everything madeof opportunism

Perhaps I behaved That Way too.

No, no, not true ... I am nothing like that!

They are different from me.

This sort of thing confused me

I thought a lot about how they could do this to me

articles Media Were Saying

That I Had Been Betrayed by my staff.

Many have expressed their sorrow-

and wrote to console me.

Fearing bad Consequences For Him

I wrote to defend the director.

I Have Been Praised for Being so compassionately forgiving.

But there is one question That saddens me

It's all very sad

I do not know what I'm saying ..

And the only reason I'm not doing films at this time

I'm not sure why I can not manage it.

I was shocked .. during the filming of a movie

And some people hurt me.

people are terrifying.

I gave them my heart.

There were others like them

Like a bolt from the blue.

I have been stabbed to the heart

And so I lost confidence

My role as a director meant little to me

It was really sad

I thought, 'This is life? ".

certainly was not so

Our films tell great stories, right?

Watch the TV news -

Those are fantastic stories.

But They Also show you what

horrible things you can do
