Bong Joon Ho

Brilliantly illustrated and designed by the London-based film magazine Little White Lies, Bong Joon-ho examines the career of the South Korean writer/director, who has been making critically acclaimed feature films for more than two decades. First breaking out into the international scene with festival-favorite Barking Dogs Never Bite (2000), Bong then set his sights on the story of a real-life serial killer in 2003's Memories of Murder and once again won strong international critical attention, winning Best Director at tge San Sebastian Film Festival. But it was Bong's first English-language film, Snowpiercer (2013)-set on a post-apocalyptic train where class divisions erupt into class warfare-that brought his work outside of the South Korean and film festival markets and onto the stage of global commercial cinema.
