When we see how a people love, marry and have a family, we get an impression of their national character, etiquette, lifestyle and culture. Korea has made a great variety of romance films that have moved the hearts of audiences around the world. We live our romances under spell - they bloom, out of control, into different shapes, colours and smells. Some are beautiful, ugly, or both. But no matter, romantic love is one of the most intense and flavourful human experiences. As part of an annual cultural event in autumn, Festive Korea, Hong Kong Arts Centre and Korean Cultural Center in Hong Kong co-present The Look of Love: Korean Romance Film Showcase to let you experience the diversity of love with eight films and chat with filmmakers.
The co-presenters are most honoured to have invited film master of Christmas in August, Hur Jin-ho (A Normal Family, A Good Rain Knows, One Fine Spring Day) to virtually give a Masterclass on Romance; and actress of Strangers Again, Cho Eun-ji, to attend the virtual after-screening talk of her popularly and critically acclaimed directorial debut, Perhaps Love. Don’t miss out!
Love is for all ❤
