Ready?
Action!
And then the actors begin to recite their lines
express different emotions and so on.
There are differences between
the roles of angels who say good things
and roles to bad they say bad things
is advantageous for the actors reciting bad parts?
prefer to do the good or bad?
Actors really like
cruel and explosive roles
Actors ..
Ready?
Action!
What did you just say? What did you just say?
What did you just say? What did you just say?
Kim Ki-duk What are you doing?
Because now you can not make a movie?
What is wrong with you?
Now I can not make films. So I take myself.
Going back to myself,
I confess my life,
as a director and as a human being.
Around a movie about myself
It could be a documentary,
a drama or fantasy genre
I interpret the characters that
I would like the protagonists of my films.
Or.
I can ...
take the camera and film
There is nothing scheduled
but I need to shoot something to be happy
So I film myself
There is a movie I want to run.
is about ...
an American soldier who fought in the Korean War.
after 30 years, before dying,
returns to search for the body ..
of the person killed.
Being old he returns to Korea
and goes to a village.
Buys Himself a shovel and salt on a mountain.
begins to dig around, but can not find the corpse.
and about to give up and leave,
when he meets a woman.
This woman helps him search for the body.
He returns to His self from
the past, a soldier in the Korean War
He takes up to rilfe and starts wearing a uniform
Returning to His Old Self.
Only then can he find the body.
Then he takes the body.
Then he lets it go.
While still ill, goes to a shaman
and meets the spirits of the dead woman.
This is the synopsis
Trying to make this film I also spoke with Willem Dafoe
But the circumstances are not favorable
I would do, but for different reasons, I can not.
Crying Would not turn into love
As if to console me with tears.
You can also go
But you can not go more
Do you like living in a tent
in the middle of the countryside?
Do you like? Tell me
Living in a shack so cold
That you have to put a tent in it?
Drink all day like this?
Kim Ki-duk, tell me
Why do you insist on living
like this for three years, from 2008?
You're not shooting the film?
Give up everything?
So you will reduce drinking every day?
That's why they say you are totally depressed.
People are so sorry that you are
The world-renowned director
embittered by betrayals, lies somewhere in the mountains
no more contact with the film industry.
Why do you do this?
Do you think this is right?
But why the hell you live like this?
In a place where water freezes in cold weather.
A wretched place with not even a bathroom in it
This you call life? Where are the plates then?
What are you? A dog? Eat in a dog bowl
Why live like this? Where's the laundry?
It seems that for years do not wash your clothes
And what happens to the atlas?
What has happened since 2008?
And because of the incident
in the prison during the filming of "Dream"?
And that actress in the scene of the hanging?
Have you run away to another cell to cry, and so?
It was an accident! Admit that you're scared
You did not expect really, huh?
Seeing her hanging there you scared me to death
But you climbed a ladder and you saved her.
So what's the problem?
Do you think if I had not acted quickly
you could kill someone during the filming of a movie?
Think of this scares you to death?
And then you decided to stop making movies?
Due to this shock?
Tell me, you bastard!
Are you connecting to the internet?
Many are waiting for your film
Do what you can, whatever it is.
You're so weak?
You've done 15 films. There Have
Been That many incidents of type
I hate to see you in this state.
Many people are waiting for your movie, baby
Whether one person or one of Hundreds,
you have to do your job!
Instead, you stay locked up here
Spend your days ... in the wild
Do you like living like this?
At any time you decide to live like this.
Why now?
Dude, you're still young!
But thus wasting your time ..
I'm not saying do not make sense Maybe you need it.
Life was already hard before
shooting "Spring, summer, autumn, winter"
Just as then it's time to wonder.
But this time going for long
Three years have passed now, we are now in 2011.
Three long years.
People are wondering about you.
In many expect your film
So
Think about it.
Perhaps you've already said everything in these 15 movies.
But I do not think That you are so traumatized.
Because of the incident
ah you dinner in shock, right?
Just look at the movies
When he was in post-production already wrote his next film.
Then shot and edited and wrote the next movie!
You wrote, preproducted, edited and produced all by yourself.
A lot of work
That's why you run out.
And like I's block
Many of your fans want to learn from you.
Of course, I know
I know you hurt
To accept someone who waited hours in the rain
to learn something from you
and those who desperately begged in the mail ...
And then, five years later.
have left that capitalism sucks
And life and you know very well
The people come and go.
Many Came to Tell You That They respected you,
but then they went away in disgust
Whether it was your moral
values or their personality problems,
people can never stay together long.
Because everyone has their own dreams
persuasion and Choose Their Own Dreams and Desires.
Nobody puts friendship first of these things
Do you feel hurt because they were like family to you.
You know life's like this
When you get close to someone,
then you walk away and vice versa.
We can not continue eating the same thing.
I love the contours. This is
life, you said it in many movies
The way I see it, you are not living like in the movies.
You are not as Determined and
resolute as the characters you created.
If those people could see you would be sorry for you.
In your film there are many strong characters
like wild animals.
But because you are so
I would say "so naive"?
Whatever you say
I can not give a clear answer
I do not care how much you push me
I can not
I can not say anything
What should I say?
I should say the accident during the filming of the movie
If the result was fatal for someone ...
would assume that meant the film?
Movies are so important?
It is natural that I was shocked
As director, I was responsible for
And I was also the screenwriter and producer
I was responsible for everything that could happen.
If that had happened. . something actress ..
and if she died for my idea and because of my film?
would have been devastating
How could I justify it?
So many words
as on
No, it happened, like you said
and Actress fainted and then recovered
is not even aware of what happened and
Despite this
I was shocked by what would have happened
And as a result of trauma
look at my past life, I reflect on how I shot my films
And I think to what we should do from now on
time
I was sad and troubled because I am a director
Should I continue to do so?
What are the movies?
If someone died because of
images and stories that I have created,
would be really terrible!
I was shocked by the incident,
but I also lived a good time
As I had these 15 films, I wanted the realistic detail
Several times and It Happened That Almost Got hurt people
will drink with you, friend
Very good
is not a speech. . about being good or bad.
Basically ..
I need time to think back on my movies
After That incident, I can not write anymore.
But I still have much to say
There are some stunts in that movie
And scenes that involve ethical and moral issues.
I keep thinking if it is really
the case to make films like that
In the past, when i finished one
Instantly I Worked on the next one, as if I were a car
So I started making a movie Each year.
I did so. And that's how I got where I am now
awarded at festivals in Venice
and Berlin and invited to Cannes.
My films were distributed in many countries
At the time I was very happy and thankful
So what?
Friend, you're depressing.
I thought I was through with directing.
film, "Dream" was like a dream.
The next film was to talk about death.
But the meaning of death is changed after the accident.
To me death
was a doorway to another world of mystical
but I understood that death
may be a crime ... that shatters the dreams of a person
which can shorten the life of a person
And then
life has become difficult
After my first movie "Crocodile" The Death Treated with care.
One can not understand death
or talk about it easily without having first experienced
It can be considered a form of hope
Death and only ...
Now I consider ...
white turns black. Simple.
You write movies, books, poems about death
It is processed to give birth to abstract concepts.
But death is like a cliff.
And like a door that closes
A light goes off.
Death is ... very different from you and now.
Making movies with death in the scene ...
In many films of today die from hammers or axes.
And then?
A part of me longs to return to filmmaking Immediately
Truly
"I have to make a movie right now"
What if I forgot how? "
there is also this desire in me, you know?
A little '
Just a little ...
and I reached the goal I set for myself
Winning a Grand Prix in a festival,
or reach a worldwide box office records
People work and expect results, not so?
Something that no Korean film has ever reached
It is said that Korean films are improved
but none has received as the
other Grand Prix in a prestigious festival
I do not know why, but
Let me be the first to do so.
And humanly understandable, after all
So I continued to write, pushing me to make films
But the obsession has complicated things.
I felt stifled and locked,
because of this obsession.
Before "Dream that I did in 2008, I was not so
rushing as fast as a runner on the track!
I kept running ... no distractions
is how I made my 15 films.
So, this explains why
those films are rough, naive, innocent and very rushed.
Immediate.
Some critics appreciate others crushed Them Them
to part of the public hates Them, the other loves Them
But then I realized it was not right
I'm not saying I'm right, but there is a difference
I have lived and made films with passion.
I had never had a decent job before becoming a director
I am very happy to be a director, and a respectable one.
Worked at the factory at a recycling
metall Producing electric devices.
Also I did street art.
Back then
I always felt alone and felt sorry for myself
I never thought of getting respect from people.
But after he began making films ...
do not know ...
I became a so-called "world-class filmmaker."
you know
My films are seen in Europe
in Latin America in the United States, Russia,
in Germany, Eastern Europe.
Even in Israel
I was really gratified by the
fact that my films were seen in the world
I was happy and proud
Obviously it was not all roses I have also received much criticism
Many have criticized both at home and abroad
saying that my films are rough
does not matter if it deals with themes
that touch the heart,for they are still crude
How can I explain?
It was so ...
Making films was happy for me to work
But suddenly
and was like being hit by a hammer.
I wished the best for people who had worked with me
I offered the opportunity to
work for my two assistant directors.
One has "Rough Cut 'on my script
The other shot "Beautiful"
assistants have become directors
and have received many appreciations
After "Rough Cut '
director Jang Hun has received many offers from major
to make movies with them
But he stayed loyal and Decided
to make two more movies with me.
I'm grateful for this.
But while preparing "Poongsan"
the producer and the director of "Rough Cut"
left.
People would say "treason" That's what I think too.
but I prefer to say .. he left.
They left to make their interests
Just Like When They Came to me in the first place.
For Their Own Gain.
It was agreed to without my knowledge with large houses
With whom I could talk about it?
For months I have been tormented with these thoughts.
Those two who let me ...
in the midst of my shock resulting in a "Dream
I was flooded with a lot of
doubts about the craft of cinema.
Leave it that way. It was wrong.
Had they come to talk to me I would have laid off, I did so.
But fled like cowards
If I had been told clearly that
they wanted to make films with big houses
and take the opportunity I would not hurt so much
famous actors were involved,
but they took a chance and they are gone.
could not argue on this point
This still makes me sick and ...
in the relations between people ...
Seems everything madeof opportunism
Perhaps I behaved That Way too.
No, no, not true ... I am nothing like that!
They are different from me.
This sort of thing confused me
I thought a lot about how they could do this to me
articles Media Were Saying
That I Had Been Betrayed by my staff.
Many have expressed their sorrow-
and wrote to console me.
Fearing bad Consequences For Him
I wrote to defend the director.
I Have Been Praised for Being so compassionately forgiving.
But there is one question That saddens me
It's all very sad
I do not know what I'm saying ..
And the only reason I'm not doing films at this time
I'm not sure why I can not manage it.
I was shocked .. during the filming of a movie
And some people hurt me.
people are terrifying.
I gave them my heart.
There were others like them
Like a bolt from the blue.
I have been stabbed to the heart
And so I lost confidence
My role as a director meant little to me
It was really sad
I thought, 'This is life? ".
certainly was not so
Our films tell great stories, right?
Watch the TV news -
Those are fantastic stories.
But They Also show you what
horrible things you can do
In some news we can understand
how people can be exceptional
And from there it comes the strength to live.
You who ask me questions ...
These you are also Kim Ki-duk
Not the Kim Ki Duk of the Moment
Kim Ki Duk You are the
spontaniously who watches my life
Thank you for these questions
Listen to my speeches that
sound like moans or justification.
Thank you for the opportunity
given to me by talking about it.
I appreciate that
The incredible thing Is that
in my life at this moment
I feel at home.
Why I came here just now?
I 'm really Asking myself this.
But part of me knows that I should not
My dream is to live and make
movies in different Countries
Go where there are my fans,
make a movie and then leave again.
might seem a fantastic
But I can not do it if I'm here
What am I talking about?
In this cabin
where there is nobody who I'm talking about?
With whom I am confessing?
With no one.
No one is listening to me.
The machine that I did. for coffee
The chairs that I have done
I think that they listen to my stories.
This wicked world
My love indifferent
Your love has been here
But you leave
I can not help but cry
Arirang
Arirang
Arariyo
Arirang hills
Get
Please
When I sing this song I can understand all
Arirang, Arirang
Arirang hills, send me, please
Arirang
I heard that ...
read in Chinese characters
the word means "self-assertion."
To me Arirang hills are ...
the hills of life.
They go up and down, up and down
Arirang
Up

They go on
go down

Then come back to climb
Then down

and go on
Next
They live so
This is
Life
This is
Why weeps that crazy?
Stop crying, crazy
I get depressed.
Boys ..
And so much fun.
I never thought of being a good speaker.
Yes, you are!
I never thought
I'm saying what comes to mind.
You see that you are good
I'm talking about Profound Experiences of My Life.
This body hears
You think too much ...
Basically, I think
that the word that sums up my life so far
is "loneliness"
I did not have any friends
My only friend at school was
mixed race, people despised him
My only friend was the son of an American soldier lost
was present in my film
"Address Unknown"
He was the only one who liked me.
Even though I was surrounded
by people. I was basically a loner
have not been able to go to school
Sorta went to work in a factory
machines which use them mended by the workers.
As the only man, I was alone.
propm'o I could not talk to people.
I could not get along.
So I have had many opportunities to observe their lives
How they live and what they say
And I struggled just to survive
always worked in the factory
always slept little and worked 15 years already.
In short, my life was lonely and difficult
That's why I WAS Able Those stories to tell.
Through your questions, look at my past life.
I have no regrets there are not many like me
The honors. We Will not Take Them to heaven or hell.
People live their lives.
And then life ends up as a diary
Even if the events are recorded
people in the past are no longer here.
The fact that he left a mark on world history
is not a guarantee of happiness in the hereafter.
Do not you think?
So that I live in this miserable hovel
or do I face a big movie That
makes me so happy I can not sleep
That Mocks The People I Have Worked with
there's no big difference.
We live under the law of inertia (Trgheit)
Extend perspective and see
that it is always the same thing
Some things have value, other-not,
but still we give importance
I wondered why the
I am here, then there's the family ...
then there is society
Even more up there the nation.
And That Is the world above.
regulated by the competition
that decides winners and losers
We consider the nation as a foundation
Be loyal to the country you
increase national prestige
Ironically, artists and athletes based on this
The director of a film
I received a presidential
commendation when I won in Venice and Berlin
and a medal from the Order for Cultural Merit
I do not know how much benefit it derives from my life.
But they award prizes,
gives the same community awards.
Given this
people might be confused
and think that I make films to improve the nation's image.
While not these my intentions, this is what appears
If I win a prize abroad,my country is a reward
People will think it has enhanced the national prestige
But if you look at my films carefully
are things that embarrass the country
All this is ironic.
My films describe the chaos of life
during different periods of transition in Korea
To Say That I improved the
image of the country by winning international awards
Honestly, I Wonder If They have seen my films.
Perhaps They would not give me the medal If They had.
Rather weird, right?
I'm trying to say that there
are artists who work in that system
It is inevitable
Which Would Reject director to praise
for receiving an international award?
I accept and use it
This is why art is so unique
Take my film, for example
the story from the life experiences termination
When you show them to others
There are some art
others of the truth or different points of view of life.
Still others are touched and grateful.
What can I say? And a way to communicate
But in essence, what are human beings, life, movies?
Do not know the answers
We use cameras or digital cameras to make movies
employing people, images, and sounds ...
and in the form of a story come to these films to the public
adorn them with good feelings,
or contempt and despair in some cases,
or various other emotions ...
Some people like. others feel struck.
Not only movies. Even our lives are steeped in emotion.
Modern society is full of
people who have lives that look like film
The writers will draw inspiration and make us a movie
In the city, in every nation,
witnessing scenes that reveal the nature of human
In a few seconds, let's take a
look at the life of someone and feel contempt
Or we find a great and profound life.
And so
films only provide more extensive and systematic
There are expressions of life around us far beyond the movies.
I have not madea movie ... in three years
Sometimes I think I'm good just to continue to live this way
But then ... Also I feel That I am not really living my life.
So I bought this camera Mark II.
I can only use it to shoot myself.
Can I say what I want, without needing a crew
to make a film usually takes 30 or 40 people
cameras are used huge sets and lighting,
but just this is enough room.
In the movies we TEND to Intervene too much
The real film cameras
require more light because of the diaphragm
The cameras can shoot instead with natural light.
This room can instead shoot with natural light.
The camera captures the world as it
is but there are too many embellishments.
I have been using the Mark to shoot myself
I can not make a film then I take myself.
Now my life and a documentary. but also a drama
Now I am an actor.
Here's what I think are the movies: a truth.
There is no need for professional cameras or lights.
There is too much preparation to capture a single moment
I hate the logistical preparations for a film
I'm worried Because They Say That My
films are rough and technically poor.
Admittedly, some people may think so.
but for me it is not really that important.
I'm shooting like I was in a drama
Some would call it a documentary, but I think it is a drama
As a writer I Constantly Think About
how to make the film more dramatic, even now
Perhaps I cried the first to dramatize the emotions more
Maybe I played a little '
is not funny?
Not having the actors and crew to make a film,
get one even so!
I want to make a movie now!
I'm recovering and I'm playing because I want to make a film
I want to make a film
To Prove That I am still a director
To be honest I forgot all about directing
I have forgotten how to direct actors
I do not know what is even more a movie
captured my imagination and
my voice with a camera like this
that it is truth, form, or acting
Is not this a movie?
Sons of bitches. Sons of bitches!
Bastards!
Damn bastards!
Motherfuckers that reveal their
instincts playing gangsters.
Die by the desire to make the bad guys, right?
You want to fuck the world, right?
You think I do not know?
You masturbate with movies
Damn bastards! The villain is the easiest!
The easiest, assholes!
Damn lousy bastards!
You know the bad guys and do it easier, right?
You have only to blow all the anger in you.
insult, oppress people!
Shoot with guns hit with an ax!
Am I wrong? Now I'm doing what you call
a fucking bastard!
Do not brag to play well the role of villain.
This only shows that you are evil!
Hit the bottle, cut with an ax and shoot bullets!
I can do it myself, faces of shit!
damn bastards
Hey, KiM Ki-duk
Have you ever been questioned by your shadow?
Your shadow from the sun.
As your shadow I ask you something
The question is
What is the Most important thing in your life?
I never thought this to be asked by my shadow.
Since you ask me as my shadow.
I should answer, right?
In my life there is sadism, masochism and self-torture
turturing the others, and turturing turtured Being Ourselves
At the end, many are content with self-torture, right?
I think that life is
When like Gazoline enters the engine of a car.
The pistons move as input, combustion and exhaust
Then the pipe shaft rotates the wheel and the car moves
That's Life
The same applies to the principles of electronics.
Conductors, semiconductors and conductors
That lead, no lead and lead sometimes.
The principles of modern electronics.
transistors and integrated circuits
I think that human life is very similar
I understand.
Love, hate, contempt, lose, and understanding.
These are items related to emotional experiences of people.
the Supervisory principles of human
There is no reason not to hate,
hate honors understanding of human life
Even so,
we continue to forget it in a shortsighted view
we need time to heal from the pain, hatred and to forgive
interesting
We Keep Ourselves Alive in
feeding on plants and animal life.
But we always contend mineral resources
obtaining nuclear weapons and bombs
This serves to human life exists in this world.
The principle of the inevitable struggle already exists.
Fighting, jealousy, hatred,
forgiveness, understanding, and so on ..
already exist in nature
The struggle there among the trees, animals, minerals.
Even the nuclear bomb, right?
Where they found a force so devastating?
has always been the principle.
nuclear explosion, fission and fusion
This technology is not different from that which moves men
The mechanism of cars
or cell phone, all derive from human nature
So I think that life is ...
self-torture, sadism and masochism.
self-Turtur, sadism and masochism.
Go ahead
-That's why I make films, I want to highlight this.
That the white and black are the same color.
The Truth Is that we are fighting an inner fight.
8 4 Becomes Becomes Becomes 2 and 2 1. namely me.
to the I Am 8.
This is our life.
my films are based on these principles.
There are people who understand and identify with my films
with my thoughts on human life on the order that exists in nature
may also share my thoughts.
Now when i watch, and remember Mostly I Understand my movies
In practice, what I mean ...
Is that human life is so insignificant.
From the point of view of history,
a human life and an infinitesimal part.
How insignificant are our lives!
We are as happy as if we had the whole world
I'm not saying it's wrong.
express happiness as if the world was ours
But we have never had it all
It would not even be possible.
The happiness that gives us
victory in a race or a big win money
positions to achieve high power
or receive a prize with honor ...
These are games for children.
I Never Consider this happiness in the light
I am concerned most of the food grown in greenhouses
We eat plants and animals pumped strength.
A food grown with the force stress contains
This stress comes directly to our body
We live life by releasing the stress from this food
People Turtur Each Other and make it even more difficult.
I think that is a different order
If it's not like this it's too tragic to accept.
Thank you for your question, and leaving to speak my mind
Thank you, Shadow.
Shadow of Kim Ki-duk
Thank you for making these questions to Kim Ki-duk
All the festivals that I attended
I miss them all
If your film festivals I had not been discovered
I would probably be a nobody
Only a director ... that failed at the box office.
But When I Was Discovered
I Was Given The Possibility of recognition even in Korea.
My films were not successful in Korea, but ...

confession in this way.
It's the first time.
I'm excited and nervous, I do not know what to say
I want to make a film.
I do not care if they say it's boring.
I do not care if they say they are no longer the same
I just want to make a film, I do not care how
When I make films I live the happiest moments of my life.
But the demons will not let me do it.
I really want to make movies
I want to talk about the world
about people and about what I've seen
I killed this fruit ... to live.
The men feed on countless deaths
Dead pigs, cows, chickens
nourish us with the deaths of plants and animals
It is inevitable for men
Why is it so sad?
Why life is so sad and depressing, every day.
Because I am.
It's so cold.
So
How to shoot questions to myself,
without knowing the answers
and January 4, 2011.
I still believe
that there is something out there
But down there and really for me?
It may be over for me?
I have to spend the rest of my life in this hut?
What ...

Suil Arirang hills, send me, please
My love, I have you forsaken
Your feet will hurt the first three miles.
