[Korean DVD News] Driving With My Wife's Lover [아내의 애인을 만나다] (2006) DVD Available in August

Kim Tae-sik’s [김태식] debut feature film, Driving With My Wife’s Lover [아내의 애인을 만나다], will be released on DVD next month by Art Service Korea. The black comedy about a jilted husband bent on revenge stars Park Kwang-jung [박광정] as Tae-han, an ordinarily mild-mannered husband who shuts down his small shop to hail the taxi belonging to Joon-sik (Jung Bo-suk, 정보석), his wife’s lover, for a comic and tension-filled ride from Seoul back to Naksan, his hometown. Other cast members include Jo Eun-Ji [조은지] (The President's Last Bang), Kim Seong-Mi [김성미], Yu Yeon-Su [유연수], and Oh Dal-Su [오달수] (The Show Must Go On, I’m a Cyborg, But That’s OK). The Japanese-Korean co-production has screened at numerous festivals, including the Sundance International Film Festival, Denmark’s NatFilm Festival, and the 35th Belgrade International Film Festival, and has picked up several awards, including Best Director Award at Monaco’s International Emerging Talent Film Festival last May. The film was also nominated for Best New Director and Best New Actor (Park Kwang-jung) at this year's Grand Bell Awards. Future engagements include the 30th Asian American International Film Festival in New York and the 9th Cinepan Asian Film Festival in New Delhi. The film premiered last October at the 11th Pusan International Film Festival and was released locally on April 26, 2007. The DVD is scheduled for release on August 30, 2007.
