“Good Neighbour” is a project worth looking out for two big reasons. One: it is the return of actor Oh Dal-su. The once much-loved actor fell sharply from grace when his name came up in the early days of the #metoo movement in Korea. All projects featuring the actor had since been shelved or dropped, including this one. However, the court cleared him of all wrongdoings last year and fans have been looking forward to his comeback to the big screen. The second reason “Good Neighbour” should jump up everybody’s anticipated films list is that it is also the return of director Lee Hwan-kyung, whose last film seven years ago was the smash-hit and still highly popular “Miracle in Cell No. 7”. Excited now? I bet you are!

A small but impactful revolution is narrated with grace and a dose of sense of humour in South Korean patriotic hit “Mal-Mo-e: The Secret Mission” which tells another story revolving around the Japanese occupation, from a seemingly unexplored point of view. This directorial debut of Eom Yoo-na, marked the transition from successful writer of “A Taxi Driver” to the director’s chair, and landed in theatres just before the 100th anniversary of the March First Movement, or the “Sam-il”, a day celebrating the beginning of Korea’s national independence movement from Japan.
