Favorite Movies
Classics you should definitely check out at some point.
These movies are from genre to genre, romance to horror. My only criteria for this list was that they were ''classics'', meaning that for some reason or other they've stayed in my mind or have become ageless along the years in general. For now most of these happen to be korean or japanese.
This list will keep on updating as time passes ^^

1. Hwayi: A Monster Boy
Korean Movie - 2013
For many years now this has been my favorite. It is a little slow paced but puzzling everything together and enjoying the twisted dark element that has been inserted into this really make me enjoy it. If you like watching pure characters slowly turn dark and bloody then this one is for you!

2. The Man From Nowhere
Korean Movie - 2010
Now this is a movie you can't miss. I haven't come across anyone here who hasn't at least heard about this. If you're into action and something bigger than yourself then you'll really like this. Won Bin's acting really draws you in, all the way to the edge of your seat.

3. Running Man
Korean Movie - 2013
Oh the father-son bonding! Just makes the movies action and suspence all me more enjoyable. And who can say they don't like Shin Ha Kyun's acting :)

4. Cracked Eggs and Noodles
Korean Movie - 2005
Now on the bitter-sweet side of the list. This one leaves you crying heartbroken but still leaves you feeling fullfilled and don't worry there's a lot of laughter here as well. The young Lee In Sung delivers his beautiful acting flawlessly.

5. Mother
Korean Movie - 2009
Aa~ one of those innocent movies that suddenly turns into a huge mess as the mother tries to save her mentality disabled son. Layered with secrets the thriller leaves you questioning humanity.

6. The Gifted Hands
Korean Movie - 2013
Now here's another one of my favorites. The gifted hand's atmosphere and plot are worthwhile. The main characters connection really grows and in the end I found myself smiling.

7. Kids
Japanese Movie - 2008
One of my first japanese movies! Here I fell in love with Tamaki Hiroshi & Koike Teppei and their friendship. The movies is rather slow and shows you the mundane parts of everyday life but with one little twist. The ability to transfer wounds!
