Rookie Directors II

This book is a diverse discussion on directors in the present tense, ones who do not yet stand at the center of Korean film but richly occupy its periphery, seeking their own status as new creators.

One of this book’s major strengths is that you can see in this book these still relatively young directors’ experimentation with various filmmaking environments and new forms different from the existing system. It is also possible to foresee changes in Korean film by examining the voices and films of these individuals, who are carving out their own contemporary film culture separately and together.
