Korean Cultural Center in Hong Kong and Korean Film Archive co-organized an exhibition called <Production Design: Scene Architects Build On-Screen Worlds>. This exhibition introduces the role and function of production design in filmmaking by exploring the works of Han Ah rum, the representative Production Designer of the current generation of Korean cinema. From the analysis of scenarios and characters, through numerous designs to give shape to scene concepts, mood, and visual elements, to the practical processes of production and construction, you will see the ways in which a film, beginning with words, is transformed into moving pictures. At the same time, since each of their works is a visual treat in and of itself, you will experience another aesthetic of cinema.

    In 1970s Korea, opposition party politician Kim Woon-bum seeks to run for president, but after losing six local elections in a row, his chances are slim to none. This is where Seo Chang-dae comes in. An ambitious election strategist, Seo lays out an aggressive – even bordering on dishonest – approach that wins Kim much-needed support, but the two men clash over the ethics of their methods. A fictional take on a miraculous campaign that nearly succeeded in ending Park Chung-hee’s controversial regime, Byun Sung-hyun’s ambitious and wildly entertaining political drama takes lessons from history to create an important cautionary tale about the present.
