The London Korean Film Festival is back for another year presenting the best of Korean cinema both old and new for audiences in London and beyond! This year's festival has a special focus on female filmmakers and for the first time the festival will open with a film directed by a woman - Lee Kyoung-mi's The Truth Beneath. Lee Kyoung-mi's previous film Crush and Blush will also screen as part of the focus on women strand which also includes the very first Korean film to be directed by a woman, 1955's The Widow.

The festival will close with another eagerly anitcipated title, Hong Sang-soo's latest tale of sorrow and soju, Yourself and Yours. In between, there's also a strand dedicated to veteran actor Baek Yoon-sik as well as recent hits including Asura: The City of Madness, The Phantom Detective, and Train to Busan animated prequel Seoul Station.

The full details of all the films are now available on the official festival website where you can also find details of how to book tickets (ticket sales through venue box offices, prices vary with venue). The festival runs at venues across central London and at Odeon Kingston from 3rd - 17th November 2016 before heading off on a UK tour to Sheffield, Manchester, Nottingham, Glasgow, and Belfast.
