Ⅰ
This book introduces five new directors who have made works realizing the meaning of an independent film environment that has become diversified amid the struggles of the Korean film industry as it has attempted to progress toward a high degree of industrialization since the 2000s. NOH Dong-seok, KIM Dong-hyun, MIN Boung-hun, KIM Tai-sik, and CHO Chang-ho are noteworthy newcomers whose works, each made in different environments, show plenty of potential. These directors have very different backgrounds and personal histories, and bring about meaningful meetings with the audience armed with their own unique visions. [...] The value of independent films does not lie solely in the aspects of system and market. The foremost reason independent film must stay robust is because the root for discovering new directors and cultivating the leaders of future cinema lies there. -From the Preface
