Jung Sung-il

One of the most well-known film critics in Korea, Jung has worked as the chief editor for film magazines Road Show and Kino, a programmer and jury in many festivals, a former adjunct professor of Korea National University of Arts' School of Film, TV and Multimedia, and a guest professor at Korean Academy of Film Arts. He has also written books about Im Kwon-taek and Kim Ki-duk.

In 2009, he debuted as a filmmaker with the critically acclaimed romance melodrama film Cafe Noir which is based largely on the literary works by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's The Sorrows of Young Werther and Fyodor Dostoyevsky's White Nights. For his effort, he was nominated for New Talent Grand Pix at the 2010 Copenhagen International Film Festival.

His second feature is the documentary Night and Fog in Zona (2015) about celebrated Chinese documentary filmmaker Wang Bing, who is well known for his nine-hour documentary Tie Xi Qu: West of the Tracks (2003). It follows Wang on his filming location, prys into his filmmaking secrets and delves into the question "what is film?."

Jung is currently in the post-production phase of his third work Im Kwon-taek Project, a documentary on legendary Korean filmmaker Im Kwon-taek. Filmed mainly when Im shot his 102nd feature Revivre (2014), it is expected to be released in the second half of 2017.
