Sash! – Just Around The Hill (Iris K-Drama Fanmade MV)

SEOul On CEllulOid

Whereas people from Japan, Vietnam and Taiwan are crazy about Korean dramas and pop music, people from Denmark, France or Canada are more likely to have watched Korean films before arriving in Korea. With a busy and internationally successful film industry, Seoul and Korea have become the backdrop for quite a number of movies. SEOUL takes you to some of the most beautiful settings in Seoul that were used in films by three of the most prolific contemporary Korean filmmakers.

Bukchon & Seongbuk-dong
In “3 Iron” (Kor. Bin Jip or ‘empty house’), the 2004 film by the infamous Korean director Kim Ki-duk, a rather taciturn guy rides through the city of Seoul on his silver-colored, spot-free BMW, attaching advertisements for delivery Chinese, chicken and pizza on doors in such a way that they cover the door lock. It’s his method to spot temporarily empty houses that he then uses to live in. While riding from neighborhood to neighborhood, this motorcyclist draws a perfect picture of the different characters of the city, almost creating a sociological profile of Seoul. He drives through well-off neighborhoods like Seongbuk-dong or Pyeongchang-dong in the hilly north of the city, but also explores poor neighborhoods, old, decaying apartment complexes just years away from complete destruction, like the Jeongreung Sky Apartments, built in 1971, just a stone’s throw away from the rich lodgings of ambassadors and movie stars. The most famous area explored by the motorcyclist, who is at some point is joined by an unhappy wife he picks up on his forays, is Bukchon, the hanok village between the two palaces. They walk down Gahoe-dong 31-gil, a rather steep alley lined by hanok , traditional Korean houses, newly restored to their former beauty. At the top of the hill is a stunning view of Seoul’s inner city’s high rises, including the landmark Jongro Tower and Namsan N Seoul Tower, forming a nice contrast with the sturdy roof tiles of the hanok in the foreground. Bukchon, translated as “northern village,” is the area of town where in the times of the Joseon Dynasty (1392—1910) the yangban , the aristocratic elite, used to live—in convenient vicinity of the royal court. It is an area that seems to have kindled director Kim Ki-duk’s creativity.

Bukchon is best explored starting from Anguk Station, Line 3. If you exit through Exit 6, after a few meters you will reach a Tourist information booth. There, maps of the area are handed out, making it easiest to find the famous Hanok alley at the top of the mountain.

Seongbuk-dong can be reached from Hanseong University Station, Line 4, Exit 6. Walk up the main road for about a kilometer.

Suyeon Sanbang will be at the right, in a small alley across from Deoksu church. Open from noon to 10:30pm. T. (02) 764-1736.

His more recent movie “Dream” (Kor. Bimong , 2008) also takes place there. “Dream” is basically a “journey that takes you along the many remaining hanok in Seoul”, as one Korean blogger poignantly put it. As the workshop for the male protagonist, a seal maker, served a gallery-café in Gahoe-dong that has since closed down; the female protagonist designs her fashion in another modernized hanok , as well; some scenes take the viewer into the rooms of luxury hanok -hotel Rakkojae; and the hanok -style town office of Hyehwa-dong has been transformed into a police station.

“Dream” also visits places in Seongbuk-dong. The two main figures, connected through a s t r a n g e d r e a m m y s t e r y, v i s i t a d o c t o r / psychologist/shamanist who set up her office in Yi Tae-jun’s hanok , the Suyeon Sanbang. Yi Tae-jun was one of the most prolific writers of Korean modernity, building a rather large mansion there in the 1930s that incorporated modern Japanese influences—most visible in the glass (and not paper) windows—into the traditional architectural style of Korea. His granddaughter turned this home into a cozy teahouse. It feels like entering someone’s living room; the home-made tea further emphasizes that. In the movie, however, the space feels cold and scary, due to the energy the shaman counselor exudes. The twisted and surreal film ends with white ice and a red bridge— Seongsan Bridge in the west.

Hangang River
Bridges along the Hangang River are the backdrop for many a movie. For Bong Junho’s “The Host” (Kor. Goemul , 2006), one of the most successful and critically acclaimed movies in recent Korean film history, the bridges become the main scene of action, allowing the viewer to see them from new perspectives, climbing through them and under them and across them. A monster that mutated from waste jumps out of the Hangang one day and abducts a child, hiding it in some corner under a bridge. As the story continues, the child’ family uses all the weapons at their disposal—be they arrows, bullets or improvised Molotov cocktails—to find the child and kill the monster. They hurry along the southern banks of the river, passing or traversing almost every bridge, from Seongsan in the west to Banpo in the east, which becomes the rainy scene of an unsuccessful attempt by the family to shoot the monster. One of the little kiosks at Hangang Park on Yeouido serves not only as the family’s source of income but also as their home and the headquarters of the search. Unfortunately, these little stores have been replaced by modern and smartly equipped convenience stores in the course of the reconstruction project on the Yeouido river banks. Nonetheless, Hangang River Park is always a worthwhile trip, with the water taxis taking you across longer distances, for example toward Olympic Park in the east or Seonyudo Park in the west.

The vast hangang Park can best be reached from Yeoinaru Station, Line 5, Exit 2 or 3. Walk east and you will pass Wonhyo, Hangang Iron, Hangang, Dongjak and finally Banpo Bridge—all of them backdrops for “The Host.” Nonetheless, Hangang Park is always a worthwhile trip, with the water taxis taking you across longer distances, for example toward Olympic Park in the east or Seonyudo Park in the west.

Namsan Cable Car
Hong Sang-soo is truly a master of variation. He manages to narrate the same story over and over again, in ever different constellations, with different settings, and (mostly) different actors. The backdrop of his movies is usually the archetypical Korea of the ‘70s and ‘80s that is slowly disappearing—simple, often almost rotten motels; down-to – earth restaurants with interchangable names like “Our Restaurant”; drinking holes. Yet the movie that he is most famous for, ” Virgin Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors” (Kor. Oh! Sujeong , 2000), features two scenes that are very easy to recognize, making them stand out against the otherwise u n s p e c i a l s e t t i n g s e v e n m o r e . O n e i s Gyeongbokgung Palace, the biggest of the five palaces in Seoul. The other one is Namsan Cable Car. Taking the cable car to reach the top of Mt. Namsan, is, for the main female protagonist Sujeong, a trip that lets her gain a distance from what’s been happening. Rising high up above Seoul serves as a metaphor for her making up her mind. Coincidentally, the cable car gets stuck midway—a hint to the fact that reaching new heights is not always positively connoted. The film is shot entirely in black and white, strangely setting the story into a non-time, detaching it from historicity. This is successful only to a certain degree. If you take the cable car in 2010, ten years after the film was shot, the utter speed in which this city changes becomes starkly apparent. Time is relative, after all—what is a decade elsewhere, is an era in Korea. And this is what is most striking—the fact that these films almost serve as a visual memory of the city.

Other film settings
Kim Ki-duk’s “Samaria” (2004) is set partly in the garden-park on the island of Seonyudo, attached to the southern river banks by a rainbow-shaped bridge. The two girls of this movie play in weeds, hide behind sculptures, and walk through in the golden ginkgo leaves of early fall. “Modern Boy” (2008, dir. Jeong Ji-woo, feat. Kim Hye-su), a historical movie set in the time when Korea was colonized by Japan, follows around a dandy in the Seoul of the Jazz Age. Locations that most Seoulites are familiar with— Myeong-dong, Gyeongbokgung Palace, Seoul Station and the rooftop garden of the Shinsegae Separtment Store in Myeong-dong—are shown (or painted in the background) in their original form.

Tiananmen

China’s symbolic buildings, World Heritage Site – the main entrance to Imperial Palace in Beijing, the national key cultural relics protection units, the national patriotism education bases, Tiananmen Square is a classic red tourism scenic spots nationwide. Is located in Beijing and east-west axis of the intersection of Chang’an Avenue. Built in the Ming Yongle fifteen years before the beginning of “the Edward Gate”, the Ming Dynasty was destroyed by two lightning war. Qing Junji eight years (1651), Ching-generation ancestor Fulin large-scale reconstruction, and renamed Edward the door of the “Tiananmen.” Modeling majestic solemnity, as the mighty, magnificent, is an outstanding representative of the ancient city gates.
The Forbidden City


The Forbidden City (Imperial Palace) in the heart of Beijing is the largest and most complete imperial palace and ancient building complex in China, and the world at large. Its construction began in 1406 and was completed 14 years later, having a history so far of some 580 years. Twenty-four emperors from the Ming and Qing (1644-1911) dynasties lived and ruled China from there. Most of the buildings in the Forbidden City were rebuilt many times, although they maintained the original architectural styles.The buildings of the Forbidden City fully embody the artistic features and styles of ancient Chinese palace architecture, and can be called a masterpiece in Chinese, even world, architectural history. Today, as the largest museum of cultural relics in China, the Forbidden City, also called the Palace Museum, collected and displayed some one million precious historical relics from the Shang Dynasty (16th century -771 BC) through to the Qing Dynasty. It was made part of the world cultural heritage list in 1987.

A nice alternative to the ancient monuments and sites, Dashanzi Arts District is a must visit part of the city for those with any interest in modern Chinese art.

The Great Wall

If you think of the biggest tourist attraction for a holiday in Asia, the Great Wall of China has to be a major contender. Originally built to keep out the Mongol forces, the wall is synonymous with the country and it’s hard to imagine a luxury holiday in China passing this by. Despite being photographed an incredible amount, the Great Wall still always manages to leave me in complete awe at the sheer scale of the amazing structure every time I visit.Many people have come to know the famous Chinese saying : ” He who does not reach the Great Wall is not a true man . “

Lama Temple

Visiting various temples is a key part of most holidays in Asia, but if you only have the time to visit one of them, Lama Temple should be the one. Regarded as the most important Buddhist temple outside of Tibet, this collection of shrines is guaranteed to leave you impressed almost beyond words. The craftsmanship is always impressive, but perhaps no shrine more so than the enormous Maitreya Buddha, which is officially registered as the world’s tallest Buddha in the Guinness Book of Records!

CCTV Tower

Central Radio and TV Tower wide pier square, white marble of the retreat Taiwan Huanlang, palace lantern-shaped towers, Qi Niandian style Tazuo, perfectly bodies the ancient Chinese architectural style and superb modern architecture.

Temple of Heaven

It is the world’s largest architectural complex of Heaven, the Ming and Qing dynasties emperor worship Heaven and pray for good harvest every year places, boarding more than 300 meters long corridor above the ground.The thing you see is the vast sky and the symbol of days of Qi Niandian.It’s a popular hang out for many local residents, who can often be found singing, dancing and exercising in the surrounding gardens.

National Centre for the Performing Arts

For a more unusual modern structure, China’s holiday makers should look no further than the National Centre for the

Performing Arts. Colloquially labelled “The Egg” by locals, it’s a dome of glass and titanium surrounded by an artificial lake. Love or hate the architectural style, it’s certainly a talking point and well worth a visit.

Beihai Park & Houhai District
While central Beijing can be a little on the overwhelming side with its crowds and bustle, the same accusation cannot be levelled at Beihai Park and the nearby Houhai shopping district. The former is an oasis of calm that seems to encourage relaxation, and the latter is a quiet area dotted with quaint little shops and charming restaurants. If the pace of modern Beijing is getting to you, make sure you stop by here on your holiday in China.

There’s plenty more to see here, but this should definitely give you a start. Whether you’re interested in history, art or culture, a luxury holiday in China’s capital cannot be recommended enough.

Things You Should Know About Movie Piracy

With the swift advancement of technology, most of the business fields are frequently threatened by an evil called piracy. Piracy is rampant in many creative and technology based industries. Here we will be discussing the movie industry, which is very badly hit by piracy.

Movie piracy has become a rampant and flourishing business for a large number of people. And even the general masses accept the evil as it is helping them to save a lot of money. The easy availability and pocket friendly street price tags have made the music piracy and movie piracy industry a million dollar industry throughout the world.

The movie piracy industry has become so widespread that it is causing great loss for the film producers and as well as the distributors who invest a huge sum of money for the making of each film. Movie piracy alone has cost the United States economy $20.5 billion per year in loss of business, jobs, wages and taxes, according to a recent market study.

The film industry for years has fought a war against movie piracy. The scenario has reached such an alarming stage that illegal copies of new films are easily available through street DVD sales or Internet download within days, or in some cases, before a movie’s hall release. The recent study also shows that a growing number of illegal sites are offering new movies for a free download. Though the authenticity of these downloadable movies is surely questionable, the movie buffs and those who want free entertainment are profusely downloading these movies from such illegal sites.

Many organizations all around the world had tried different ways to tackle movie piracy but nothing effective could be done till now. In the United States of America the organization named Motion Picture Association of America warned against a growing global epidemic of movie piracy. The organization also conducted a study on the Internet where it showed that nearly one fourth of the Internet users have illegally downloaded movies from the Internet.

It is quite an astonishing and disturbing fact that most of the people who buy pirated DVDs or CDs or download pirated movies from the Internet do not know that they are committing a crime or an offence. They are also unaware of the fact that they are the cause for the loss of jobs to a lot of people.

The study was conducted by an organization that queried three thousand and six hundred Internet users in eight countries about online movie piracy. The study was performed in France, Germany, Australia, Italy, Korea, Japan, the U.K., and the USA. The survey showed that online movie piracy is growing too fast and most of the users are not even aware of the offence.

The increasing simplicity of downloading movies through a fast and efficient broadband connection, and the invention of compression technologies and extensive availability of new releases as well as the old classics online, are some of the main factors which attract consumers to download without giving it a second thought. The very high movie ticket prices also tempt people to buy pirated DVDs from the street shops.

How can I purchase The Clique Movie DVD?

These days I’m sooo in to the clique novel series written by Lisi Harrison. And I heard that The Clique Movie was already made in the States. However!
The problem is that I live in the South Korea, and there’s no the clique DVD. NOT A SINGLE ONE!!!
I reallyy want one, but there’s no way I can have it here.
Is there anyone who can help me?
Please~

Well, if they don’t have it in stores or on iTunes, then I would try ordering one off of eBay
