Early career
[
edit
]
Park was born in 1975. Since the late 1980s, while still in his teens, he was already a
Cinephile
.
[5]
In 1991, when he was in his second year of high school, he set a future goal to become a film director.
[6]
However, he initially enrolled in the natural science department in college. After repeating his first college year twice, he enlisted for mandatory military service.
[6]
He then applied for a non-commissioned officer position and was discharged as a sergeant five years later. After his five years of military service, he ultimately dropped out of college.
[7]
Following his military discharge, Park participated in a game scenario contest held by the Venture Association. He was selected and joined a game company as a special recruit, working on game scenarios. However, the company later changed its business focus, prompting Park to start another game company with the people he had previously worked with. Unfortunately, this new business venture did not go well.
[7]
In the meantime, Park won a synopsis contest hosted by
Sidus HQ
, which opened doors for him in the film industry.

Park made his breakthrough as a screenwriter for writing the screenplays for
Kim Jee-woon
's film
I Saw the Devil
(2010) and
Ryoo Seung-wan
's film
The Unjust
(2010). The release of these two films in 2010 cemented the name of "Park Hoon-jung" in
Chungmuro
.
[11]
"When
Choi Min-shik
first approached me with this project I was working on a different film, but it got delayed for a year and I thought I couldn’t just rest and do nothing. I needed a script because it would have taken too long to develop something new from scratch. So I was in a bit of a dilemma when exactly at this moment Choi, who plays the serial killer in the film, came to me with this script, and suddenly everything fell into place.
When I first read the script it felt very new and powerful but at the same time it had a brutal and tough side to it, which got me interested..."
?
Kim Jee-woon
about I Saw The Devil Script
[12]
[13]
The script for the film
I Saw the Devil
(2010) marked the first time that
Kim Jee-woon
directed a film that was written by someone else. He was offered the script by
Choi Min-sik
, who played the villain in the story. Kim then cast
Lee Byung-hun
in the title role.
[14]
I Saw the Devil
was Choi Min-sik's first major role since the changes to the
Korean screen quota system
.
[15]
After premiering in South Korea on August 12, 2010, film
I Saw the Devil
was screened at the
2011 Sundance Film Festival
on January 21, 2011. It was also shown at various other international film festivals, including the
Fantasporto
Film Festival,
Toronto International Film Festival
,
Sitges Film Festival
,
San Sebastian Film Festival
and the London Korean Film Festival.
[11]
[14]

Gerardmer Film Festival
, Best Lighting at the
Grand Bell Awards
, Best Foreign Language film from the
Austin Film Critics Association
and Best Editing from the 2011
Asian Film Awards
.
[16]
When
Ryoo Seung-wan
directed
The Unjust
, which was written by Park, it was a significant milestone for him as it marked the first time he directed a film not written by himself in his career. Prior to this, Ryoo had always directed films based on his own scripts.
[17]
[18]
The Unjust
is a South Korean action crime film that presents a dark and acrid critique of corruption in the country's justice system. It is notable for being the fifth collaboration between director Ryoo and his younger brother, actor
Ryoo Seung-bum
. The film also reunites lead actors
Hwang Jung-min
and
Ryoo Seung-bum
, who had previously worked together in
Bloody Tie
(2006).
[19]
[20]
The film has screened at numerous film festivals around the world, including the
Panorama section
of the
61st Berlin International Film Festival
,
[21]
the
Hong Kong International Film Festival
,
[22]
the
Shanghai International Film Festival
,
[23]

Career as director
[
edit
]
Park made his directorial debut with film
The Showdown
which was released in 2011. He wrote the script in 2006 and offered the script to other directors and production companies. However they all wanted to tell a different story while keeping only the basic framework. Park felt like it was too far from his vision, so he thought of directing the film himself.
[7]
[31]
Despite having a low budget of approximately 1.99 billion won,
[32]
the film failed to achieve commercial success.
[33]
After the commercial failure of his debut film, Park encountered difficulties in planning his next project, the Korean-style noir film 'Shinsegae' or
New World
. Park said, "The people who wants to invest asked for two things. "The scenario and actors are good, but change the director and genre", or "Noir is not a box office hit, so let's cut the production cost." Despite the initial challenges,
New World
managed to attract a total audience of 4.68 million, according to the integrated computer network of the Korea Film Commission. This success marked Park's first box office hit and he was praised for pioneering a new path for Korean-style noir.
[7]
[33]
New World
stars
Lee Jung-jae
,
Choi Min-sik
,
Hwang Jung-min
,
Park Sung-woong
, and
Song Ji-Hyo
.
[34]
[35]
In the film, Lee Ja-sung (
Lee Jung-jae
) struggles to balance his role as an undercover police officer with his rise in Korea's crime syndicate.
[36]
[37]
The New York Times
called the film "both less bloody and more thoughtful than most of its genre, the shifting-alliances plot becoming more engrossing as it progresses."
[38]
Park won the Jury Award at the 5th Beaune International Thriller Film Festival in 2013.
[39]
In 2015, Park reunited with
Choi Min-sik
in historical film
The Tiger
. Set in 1925 during the Japanese colonial period, "The Tiger" depicts the fateful story of Cheon Man-deok, a tiger hunter, and the last tiger of Joseon. The screenplay was authored in 2009 while Park was still a relatively unknown writer, and it was promptly sold to a film company upon completion. Although Park initially had no plans of directing the film, he eventually took on the role of director five years later.
[40]
The distributor,
NEW
, along with
Choi Min-sik
urged Park to take on the role of director. They argued that he was the best fit to direct since he had written the script.
[41]
Despite being a commercial blockbuster film that cost 14 billion won, Park and his team faced difficulties in creating a realistic tiger using only about 1/11 of the production cost of
Life of Pi
, which also utilized
CGI animation
for its tiger character.
[42]
Although the film did not perform as well as expected at the box office, it has been widely acclaimed for its high-quality production and impressive use of CG work to vividly bring the Joseon tiger to life on screen.
[43]
Park was nominated for and won several awards for his direction and screenplay for
The Tiger
, while his team received technical awards for their impressive CGI animation work.
[42]
In 2016, Park founded a film production company called 'Geumwol'. The name of the production company is derived from the Chinese characters for the criminal organization 'Goldmoon' from his film
New World
. Park stated that he established the company to create the kind of work he wanted to make and to avoid feeling guilty for the production company's lack of success. He also mentioned that while there are many well-known works, there are not many successful ones.
[44]
After establishing his own film production company in 2016, Park collaborated with
Warner Bros.
to produce his next film in 2017. Park's subsequent film,
V.I.P.
, which featured
Jang Dong-gun
,
Kim Myung-min
,
Park Hee-soon
and
Lee Jong-suk
,
[45]
is a crime-action thriller that centers around the pursuit of a suspected serial killer by officers from
South Korea
,
North Korea
, and
Interpol
. However, despite its star-studded cast, the film was disappointing in terms of box office success. Additionally,
V.I.P.
received heavy criticism for its excessive portrayal of violence against women.
[46]
In 2018, Park with reunited for the third time with
Park Hee-soon
in South Korean
science fiction
action
horror film
The Witch: Part 1. The Subversion
.
[47]
[48]
The film also stars veteran actress
Jo Min-soo
and actor
Choi Woo-shik
. The plot revolves around Ja-yoon (played by
Kim Da-mi
), a high school student who loses all memory after escaping alone from a facility where a mysterious accident resulted in multiple deaths.
Kim
, a rookie actress at that time, was chosen for the role of Ja-yoon after competing against odds of 1,500 to 1. This role launched Kim Dami’s career.
[49]
[50]
Despite writing it before film
The Tiger
(2015), Park delayed its release due to discouragement from those around him. After the release of
V.I.P.
, he eventually met investors. Major Korean distributors found the film difficult due to it being female-led with a new actress and a budget of 6 billion won. However,
Warner Bros. Korea
showed interest and was more open to casting new actors and big budget. Warner Bros. headquarters responded positively to the project and expressed interest in developing it as a franchise.
[51]
"
Night in Paradise
is one of the best gangster movies coming from South Korean cinema in recent years. Park Hoon-jung is a director that deserves full attention for his ability to combine the writing of original screenplays with the creation of complex characters that are never stereotypical, together with impressive and masterly directorial skills. His name will certainly be heard even more in the future."

[53]
In September 2020,
Warner Bros. Korea
withdrew from the Korean film industry due to poor results in its recent productions. The withdrawal has raised uncertainty about the much-anticipated sequel, "The Witch 2," following the success of the first installment,
The Witch: Part 1. The Subversion
which attracted 3.18 million viewers upon its release in 2018.
[54]
In November 2020, Geumwol and Studio&NEW, a content production affiliate of the media group
NEW
, signed an equity investment contract.
[55]
In the same year, Park wrote and directed
Night in Paradise
, a film featuring Tae-goo (played by
Uhm Tae-goo
), a member of a criminal gang led by Mr. Yang (played by
Park Ho-san
). Tae-goo seeks revenge after his sister and niece are murdered, resulting in his brutal killing of Chairman Doh and his men from the Bukseong gang. He meets Jae-yeon (played by
Jeon Yeo-been
), a terminally ill woman, on
Jeju Island
. The Bukseong gang's Director Ma (played by
Cha Seung-won
) relentlessly hunts down Tae-goo for revenge, and Yang betrays Tae-goo to save his own life.
[56]
The majority of the filming took place on
Jeju Island
, lasting over three months.
[57]
Night in Paradise
had its premiere on September 3, 2020, at the
77th Venice International Film Festival
, where it was screened as part of the "Out of Competition" category. In October 2020, it was reported that due to the COVID-19 pandemic,
Next Entertainment World
was considering releasing the film directly on
Netflix
instead of in theaters. In February 2021, it was officially announced that the film would be released on
Netflix
on April 9.
[58]
[59]
The film reached the number one spot on Netflix's Top 10 most popular content list after their release.
[60]
The production of
The Witch: Part 1. The Subversion
'
sequel
faced significant difficulties when
Warner Bros. Korea
withdrew from the Korean film industry. However, Park's production company and
NEW
eventually negotiated the rights to the film with
Warner Bros.
headquarters. Due to budget constraints and the
COVID-19
pandemic, the film could not be made as originally planned and was reformulated from what was originally planned as third movie. Park acknowledged that the film may not meet audience expectations.
[61]
The Witch: Part 2. The Other One
features a new character named So-nyeo (played by Shin Shi-a), who is the only survivor of a secret laboratory. So-nyeo was pursued by various characters, including Dr. Baek, each with their own motives for chasing her. The film will also reveal the relationship between Ja-yoon and So-nyeo, adding to the overall intrigue of the storyline. It was released on 15 June 2022 in South Korea.
[62]
[63]
[64]
In the end of 2021, Park wrote and direct an action-noir film
The Childe
(originally titled
Sad Tropics
).
Kim Seon-ho
,
Kim Kang-woo
,
Go Ara
, and Kang Tae-joo in his film debut were cast.
[65]
It is scheduled to be released theatrically in June 2023.
[66]
Filmmaking
[
edit
]
Park is known for his unique and distinct directing style, which often involves visually stunning and intense action sequences, complex characters, and intricate plotlines.
[67]
[68]
He is particularly skilled at creating tension and suspense, using a combination of music, cinematography, and editing to build a sense of unease and anticipation.
[69]
[70]
[71]
Additionally, His films often explore themes of revenge, betrayal, and morality, and he is known for his ability to create morally ambiguous characters and thought-provoking storylines.
[72]
Park's films often feature
graphic violence
, a tendency which has sometimes been criticized. He places a strong emphasis on realistic and gritty depictions of violence and crime, which often make his films intense and emotionally charged.
[73]
[74]
[75]
[76]
Influences
[
edit
]
Park Hoon-jung's films have been influenced by a variety of sources, including Hongkong films and Hollywood action movies. Park grew up at a time when Korean cinema was not thriving, therefore he did not have many opportunities to watch Korean films. Park cited (Francis Ford Coppola's) masterpiece
The Godfather
as one of his favourite films and a major influence on his work.
The film
Infernal Affairs
and
Donnie Brasco
were among the films that came to mind while making
New World
, but it wasn't limited to those. The film also contained elements and tones from other movies such as
The Godfather
,
Election
,
Hell’s Kitchen
, and
Heat
. Since Park was greatly influenced by these films and they belonged to a similar genre that he enjoyed, it was impossible for him to break away from them completely. Instead, he actively infused them into his film and aimed to take the story in a completely different direction while still preserving the essence of each movie.
[8]
In recent times, Park has had the chance to watch a significant number of Korean films and has become an avid admirer of celebrated directors such as
Bong Joon-ho
,
Park Chan-wook
, and
Kim Jee-woon
.
[77]
[78]
Method
[
edit
]
Park, in general, gets story material from watching the news and observing the happenings in Korean society. Park's thoughts and beliefs are typically reflected in their subsequent screenplays. Park finds that a script becomes more nuanced after incorporating current events in Korea.
[77]
Park does not have any particular actors in mind when writing a screenplay. However, once the casting process is finished and the actors are chosen, Park makes adjustments to the script to better fit the chosen cast member's character portrayal and acting style.
[77]
In Park's previous screenplays, all except for
I Saw the Devil
, triangular structures were used. Park believes that in exploring power or class conflicts. According to Park, the triangular character setup is the most effective and personally more interesting. Nevertheless, the applicability of a triangle structure relies on the specific material, but for character struggles, Park has a preference for it.
[77]
This creates a dynamic tension between the characters, with each one vying for power or control over the others. For example, in his film
New World
, Park uses a triangular structure to explore the power struggle between three characters: an undercover cop, a gangster, and the head of a crime syndicate.
[79]
Similarly, in
The Unjust
, Park uses a triangular structure to depict the corruption and moral decay of three characters: a prosecutor, a detective, and a businessman. By using this triangular structure, Park is able to create complex and nuanced characters who are in conflict with each other, while also exploring larger themes such as power, control, and morality. The use of this structure is a hallmark of Park's early films and contributed to his reputation as a skilled and innovative filmmaker.
[77]
Compared to most Korean directors who prefer standalone films, Park is one of the few who has created a sequel that expands the universe of his original film. This approach is rare in Korean cinema and showcases Park's ability to push boundaries and create more complex narratives.
[63]
Collaborators
[
edit
]
Park has a history of successful collaborations with various talented individuals in the film industry. For instance, he has frequently collaborated with film editor
Kim Chang-ju
on several projects, such as
The Tiger

The Witch: Part 1. The Subversion
(2018), all of which have been well-received by both audiences and critics.
Another notable collaborator of Park's is cinematographer
Chung Chung-hoon
. The pair first met during the production of
The Unjust
(2010) and have since worked together on film
New World
(2011). Chung is known for his exceptional use of lighting and camera work, and his visual style has been a strong match for Park's atmospheric and visually stunning films.
[35]
Music director

is another collaborator that Park has worked closely with since their partnership on
I Saw the Devil
(2010). The two have continued their successful collaboration on several other projects, such as
V.I.P.
(2017),

(2018),
Night in Paradise
(2021),
The Witch: Part 2. The Other One
(2022), and
The Childe
(2023).

Park Hee-soon
being one of his most frequent collaborators.
