Hong Sang-soo made the astounding debut with his first feature film THE DAY A PIG FELL INTO THE WELL (1996). Since then, through 21 films that he wrote and directed, he has consistently enjoyed using a complex and highly ordered architecture under a seemingly random surface created by spontaneous circumstances in depicting the characters in his films. Renowned for his unique cinematographic language and unprecedented esthetics in filmmaking, Hong Sang-soo is considered one of the most established auteurs in contemporary Korean cinema.
