    Kim Sung-hoon
    Running Time
    125 Minutes
    As a member of an elite North Korean investigation team, Im Cheol-ryung (Hyun Bin) is called to a counterfeit printing facility only to discovery treachery in his team's own ranks. When the dust settles, Im is recovering but his government is about to send him on an unprecedented mission: team up with South Korean forces to track down Cha Ki-seong (Kim Joo-hyuk), Im's former supervisor who has fled to the South with the master printing plates. Im has only three days to complete his mission, but South Korean officials have their doubts about Im as well as Cha's culpability. Detective Kang Jin-tae (Yoo Hae-jin) from Seoul is ordered to keep a close eye on the whole operation, lest things go horribly wrong. Director Kim Sung-hoon's 2017 action thriller Confidential Assignment offered an original twist on North-South politics in Korea, and went on to earn its stellar cast awards for Best Supporting Actor (Kim Joo-hyuk) and Most Popular Actress (Yoona), among others.

    Running Time
    112 Minutes
    Hyung-Wook (Yu Hae-Jin) is a charismatic contract killer with a perfect record whose epic bathhouse slip has him being taken to the hospital by paramedics, including the lovely Ri-Na (Jo Yoon-Hee). Struggling actor Jae-Sung (Lee Joon), who can't even pay his rent, witnesses the slick-dressed hit man take a fall -- on a whim, he switches their locker keys, and as a result, entire identities. Hyung-Wook wakes up with no memory of his deadly past, and learns that he is...a broke actor named Jae-Sung? Both men try to embrace their new lives, to hilarious effect. Director Lee Gye-byeok's hit comedy Luck-Key (2016) gave veteran character actor Yu Hae-jin a chance to play the lead, earning him nominations for Best Actor at the Baeksang Arts Awards and Chunsa Film Art Awards and the top prize from the University Film Festival of Korea. Free with an RSVP! Complimentary snacks. In Korean with English subtitles. 112 minutes.  LUCK-KEY (럭키)  Wednesday, August 13, 6:00 PM  Korean Cultural Center Washington, D.C.

    Director
    Bo-ra Kim
    Running Time
    138 Minutes
    Much like a hummingbird, 14-year-old Eun-hee (Park Ji-hu) is small yet intensely alive, her senses wide open to the vast and unknowable world that lies ahead. She quietly navigates the uncertainties of adolescence, fleeting romance, and changing times. Through her curious gaze, one is drawn back to a pivotal moment in Korean history that shaped a generation: the tragic 1994 collapse of Seoul’s Seongsu Bridge. Director Bo-ra Kim’s Berlinale prize-winning 2019 debut was a huge critical and commercial success in Korea and abroad.  Free with an RSVP! Complimentary snacks. In Korean with English subtitles. 138 minutes.  House of Hummingbird (벌새)  Wednesday, July 2, 6:00 PM Korean Cultural Center Washington, D.C. (2370 Massachusetts Ave. NW) RSVP HERE!
