Description de l'ouvrage :
World-renowned South Korean directors, including Park Chan-wook and Bong Joon Ho, cite Kim Ki-young as being the greatest Korean influence on their work. During his thirty year career, Kim Ki-young produced thirty-three films and became revered by critics within the national and international community as one of the few South Korean ‘auteurs’.
As the first comprehensive scholarly volume on Kim Ki-young in English, ReFocus: The Films of Kim Ki-young covers his entire career and history of cinematic work, highlighting the thematic and stylistic singularity of Kim’s oeuvre, which was produced relative to the specific historical and cultural conditions of post-war South Korea. It offers an innovative departure point from which to explore South Korean film relative to the wider history of world cinema, in addition to situating Kim’s work within the broader fields of Korean modern history, transnational cinema and cultural studies.

Revue de Presse :
By historically engaging with the first Korean auteur director, this book not only rediscovers Kim Ki-young as one of the most respectable directors but also connects his films to contemporary Korean cinema. It provides fascinating discussions fully supported by diverse voices, which are solid, well-grounded, and academically sound. -- Dal Yong Jin, Simon Fraser University
This illuminating volume on one of South Korea’s most fascinating and eccentric directors provides in-depth readings of Kim’s films, while at the same time examining key themes relevant to Korean cinema as a whole: national identity, gender, state control, and Korea’s complex relationship with its former colonizer Japan. -- Darcy Paquet, author of New Korean Cinema: Breaking the Waves
