From TPD:
In the second week of the Korean film month, you are invited to the film screening “J.S.A” directed by Park Chan Wook. Not suitable for children under 16 years old.
Before becoming well known for “The Vengeance Trilogy”, Park Chan Wook directed “J.S.A.: Joint Security Area”, which was a great success both commercially and critically as the most-watched film ever made in South Korea.
J.S.A.: JOINT SECURITY AREA (Korean: 공동경비구역 JSA) is a 2000 South Korean mystery thriller film starring Lee Young-ae, Lee Byung-hun and Song Kang-ho. It was directed by Park Chan-wook and is based on the novel DMZ by Park Sang-yeon.
The film, which was shot on location in South Korea, concerns an investigation into the circumstances surrounding a fatal shooting incident within the DMZ, the heavily fortified border that separates North and South Korea.
It was the highest grossing film in Korean film history at the time and won Best Film at the 2000 Blue Dragon Film Awards and the 2001 Grand Bell Awards.
