Column: [Abnormal Eyes of Mark Tetto] Korea's 'senior content' which is every bit precious every bit K-Pop too K-dramas
Internationally, Korea is highly recognized for its cultural contents. It became known globally past times exporting K-Pop too dramas. Korea is less known every bit a province too it's too at a unique location amongst a novel genre 'senior content'. Last month, I attended Seoul Senior Film Festival too learned that Korea was the leader of this detail genre. Seoul Senior Film Festival shows 2 types of films. One is nearly the lives too problems of seniors. Another 1 is a celluloid created too directed past times seniors themselves. This interesting celluloid festival was celebrating its ninth year. The fact that this interesting content has been produced for nine years is really surprising.
Since this celluloid festival, I started to visit Korea's cultural contents I've experienced differently. During this process, I establish a really interesting fact. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 lot of Korea's contents that I've liked were associated amongst seniors. My most favorite celluloid 'I Love You' is nearly the solitude, love, too joy of a senior couple. It's 1 of the few films that never neglect to brand me cry. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 celluloid 'Poetry' directed past times a managing director Lee Chang Dong is a unique flush on a senior woman's struggles too finding a novel dear for poetry. This celluloid portrays that a life itself is a beautiful poem. 'Poetry' won an abide by at Cannes Film Festival too gained international attention.
Another interesting fact is that a lot of Korea's contents that gained the highest reputation internationally are too related to seniors. 'My Love, Don't Cross That River' is 1 of the rare Korean films that are displayed visibly every bit recommended movies on Apple TV. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 novel 'Please Look After Mom' is yet a operate that is the most appreciated too praised internationally.
Without knowing it, Korea's 'senior content' is quietly leading on the global stage. While K-Pop too K-dramas present the beauty of the youth, the senior content is based on the unique Confucian civilization too makes us reverberate on our lives. It agency that Korea is voicing a unique sentiment on social issues related to seniors on the global stage. It must last the argue why the basis finds Korea's senior content charming too great. Like K-Pop too K-dramas, senior content is too a cultural genre that Korea should last proud of. It has huge potentials to buy the farm a cultural legacy that volition stand upward for Korea. We must acknowledge this openly too operate on expanding it.
