Seeing his awesome work and even better work ethic, I figured he would be the perfect candidate in the Creative Spotlight. Please read below for the full Q&A… Would you say something about your parents and your childhood? Kyu: My dad used to work for an import-export company which meant our family got moved around a lot. I first left Korea when I was 4, and have spent over half my life abroad. I guess you could say my childhood mostly consisted of adjusting to new environments. The last six months for you were pretty intense. Could you tell us a bit about how you prepared for your solo show in Korea? Did you experience any nerves or were you confident in the message you wanted to present? Kyu: My last solo show was by far the largest exhibit I’ve ever done. I had a total of 42 pieces in the show. It was a challenge even though I had a year to prepare for it. The subject matter wasn’t really a problem as it was an extension of what I have been working on for the past 4 years or so. Translating the images into a new medium however, was a bit tricky for me – I had been using mostly graphite for my works the past few years, but decided to go back to oil painting for this show. How did this show differ from your group show in Paris? Does a different cultural audience really make a difference in how your art is perceived? Kyu: The way people react/connect to my work seems to be different depending on where I show. It may have more to do with how comfortable people are at interacting with art though.. I think these days cultural barriers are less of an issue; the world has gotten a lot smaller after all. The funny thing I find is that when I show work in Canada or Europe people comment on how Asian my work is; when I show in Korea I get the opposite reaction. I’ve been thinking about this for the last few years and I find that some artists’ work tends to get high-key and maybe too bold. You tend to use a monochromatic palette. Is this to show restraint in your work? Kyu: I don’t think I’m consciously trying to show restraint. Maybe that’s just the way I process things. I like quiet, subtle expressions with layers. You don’t have to shout every time you have something important to say. You stay pretty active in blogging and using social media to connect with people. How important is this as an artist for you to document your works, findings, and thoughts online? Kyu: I don’t know if I would say it is important to me, but I do enjoy it. Having a website to showcase my works is nice, but blogging and using social media turns it into a conversation. I like that I can get instant reactions or feedback. Your work can be described as isolated, somber, and dream like. How do you react to such words? And are these reflections of your own personality? Kyu: I guess they do reflect a part of my personality. I do enjoy a good amount of solitude and quite, but that is not to say that I am in any way anti-social. Do you have any favorite Asian films? Kyu: Oldboy, Spirited Away, One Fine Spring Day. After shifting from Canada to Korea after almost a decade, how will this change effect future works from you as a creative? Kyu: I think I have yet to find out, but I have already been experimenting with new materials and techniques since moving back to Korea. I’m sure the difference in cultural environment has a lot to do with it, but at the same time Seoul is a much larger city than Vancouver, and I have access to a lot more materials and inspirations. Aside from your art, if that was even a factor, what brought upon the move to Korea? Kyu: It was a combination of a lot of different factors. I had been away from my family a long time, and I came across some good opportunities to show work here in Seoul. Also I’ve always wanted to travel around Asia; being back home makes this a lot easier. I know you like to challenge yourself as an artist by experimenting with new mediums. What future projects would you like to explore in 2013? Kyu: I think I’d like to broaden my medium a little. I’m collaborating with some friends on an animation project, and doing some research for sculpture pieces as well as installations. Want to stay up to date on all his work?

One of the perks of viewing foreign cinema is being able to witness death in all its forms being handled in distinctly different ways. Take for example South Korean's bubblegum fantasy Hello Ghost, a quirky comedy starring Cha Tae-Hyun and brought to the screen by the veritable talents of Kim Young-tak. Much like the slew of other mainstream films populating SoKo cinemas, Hello Ghost features the usual over abundance of cheesy musical score and airbrushed love interests. For viewers maybe unfamiliar with this particular brand of cinema an initial viewing of such a film can often be akin to being strapped to a chair and being forced to watch Gangnam Style on continuous loop whilst being poked by metal chopsticks. For those of us already accumulated to this genre though, Hello Ghost is a welcome treat full of pathos, gentle humor and yes, airbrushed lovers. Telling the tale of the perpetually down beat Sang-Man, Hello Ghost holds zero punches in its opening minutes as we see the film's protagonist attempt to overdose on medication in a bid to take his own life. Unfortunately for him, we later learn that this attempt is futile as he survives. During his recovery Sang-Man learns that his ordeal has caused some "side effects". It would seem that Sang-Man has been blessed/cursed with the gift of a sixth sense, an ability that enables him to see spirits. Quickly he discovers that he is a beacon to every ghost in the vicinity and before he knows it realizes that he has no choice but to help every one with his or her last wish, a feat that is no small effort. At this point some readers might be yelling at the screen "that sounds a lot like Ghost Town" and to a degree, the titles do share some cursory similarities. However, where as the former was a somewhat bloated Ricky Gervais vehicle, the latter is tightly packed with some fantastic characterization and poignancy. Take the character of Sang-Man for example, a character in a cycle of perpetual sadness, played confidently by Cha Tae-hyun (My Sassy Girl). His plight in particular brings a real sense of gravity to the otherwise carefree story, constantly prodding the viewers with the reminder that Sang-Man is still hopelessly suicidal. The ghosts in question also are a rag-tag bunch of oddities with a laundry list of disorders ranging from sexual deviance to careless joyriding. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BEi8Ck8pHUc Essentially divided up into four distinct chapters, and with an adorable Meet-Cute thrown in for good measure, Hello Ghost is a title that manages to provide equal handfuls of humor and heart. Sure, the film stumbles here and there, with some notable gaps in the Ghost's logic and a sub-plot or two that fails to really go anywhere, but overall Hello Ghost is worth the time of any ardent South Korean Cinema fan. Sailor Moon: Season 1 – Review Feb 28th 2013, 00:02 During the 1990s, anime began to become hugely popular in western countries. While anime had previously existed in western culture, strong demand for the latest anime films and series of the 90s (most of which have set the benchmark for anime in their personal own way) meant that American anime distribution labels would have to find a way to localise these properties to satisfy a growing niche. As a result, massive hits like Cowboy Bebop, Neon Genesis Evangelion and Pokemon became popular in their own right and signalled anime's arrival into the mainstream of pop culture. Among the anime acquisitions of the 1990s was Sailor Moon, a series dedicated to the adventures of a high school girl who becomes the eponymous warrior and battles intergalactic enemies with the help of her friends, the Sailor Senshi (or the Sailor Scouts as they're referred to in the English language dub). Popular in its own right, the series is unquestionably one of the most important anime series of the 1990s as its influence can be felt amidst shows like Puella Magi Madoka Magica and Cardcaptor Sakura. With a new series set for release later this year, now is perhaps the best time to have a retrospective look at the original first season of the show. While many, myself included, look back on the series with only fond memories and warm nostalgia, the original Sailor Moon series is, unfortunately, not as great a show as one would like to believe. To begin, Sailor Moon's first season doesn't actually form some semblance of a plot until just over half-way into the season. Most of the episodes leading up to this point of the season can be regarded as insignificant filler which do little to move the season along. Moreover, many of the first season's episodes are terribly predictable – once you figure out the pattern that one episode follows, expect that formula to be replicated in nearly every other episode. To be fair, Sailor Moon does draw inspiration from the Super Sentai (or Power Rangers) series which follows a very similar format though it doesn't change the fact that this format does little in the way of establishing a plot. In most cases, this would warrant an immediate disinterest in the show but that's not quite the case here. While it is still rather unacceptable for a show to find its footing more than twenty episodes in, the momentum of the first season is kept afloat largely by its humour and characterisation. Usagi Tsukino, is the focus of the show and though her dim-witted and lazy attitude might come across as annoying to some, I found her to be a completely hilarious character. What's interesting about her character is that she defies the expectations one would come to expect when a role of immense responsibility is given. Despite her well-intentioned actions against evil, Usagi reacts to fighting alien warriors the same way any sane fourteen-year old high school girl would. It's qualities like these that make her character all the more fun to watch. There's some great comedy to be had in Sailor Moon (particularly with some of Tuxedo Mask's ridiculous proclamations) and although it understandably phases out towards the end of the first season, the comedic moments are just as memorable as the romance and drama of the show. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3h8w91mopA Sailor Moon's first season doesn't exactly scream quality but its flaws are masked by the sincere treatment of its characters. If you can get over a lot of the predictability, repetition and pacing issues, the show rewards you with an admittedly intriguing story based around some surprisingly cool concepts involving alternate realties and reincarnation. Though Sailor Moon is a children's show at its core, enough content is available in the show to satisfy older audiences as well. It may be a bit of a cliché but there's certainly something for everyone to enjoy in Sailor Moon. And even though the show might not be as good as some of you may remember it to be, perhaps rest assured knowing that one thing about Sailor Moon will always remain constant – the show's ridiculously iconic opening theme song.
