A multi-talented director with delicate sensibility, KIM Tae-yong has so far made three commercial feature films and one documentary, all of which garnered critical acclaim. He co-directed with MIN Kyu-dong <Memento Mori>, an installment in the horror series <Whispering Corridors>. Out of the five installments of the series, <Memento Mori> is considered to have made the highest artistic achievement. <Family Ties> (2006), which threw a variety of alternative forms of family to the Korean society, which still adheres to the notion of a nuclear family consisting birthparents and their children as the only “normal” family, also received rave reviews from fans and critics alike. <Late Autumn> (2010), set in Seattle and starring [HYUN Bin] of Korea and [TANG Wei] of China, is a classic that has been remade many time in Korea as well. He also directed a movie “talk” performance of <The Crossroad of the Youth> (1934), Korea’s oldest known silent movie.Less
