His movies “The Foul King,” “A Tale of Two Sisters,” “A Bittersweet Life,” and “I Saw the Devil” put him on the map. He’s yet to produce anything since that has had the same reputation to the point where his most personal film, the film set comedy “Cobweb,” vanished without a trace. I like Kim’s movies now (especially his 2016 spy yarn “Age of Shadows”) better than ever, and here’s why, and why I still look forward to his every new movie, with a quick sojourn into the history of South Korean cinema that affected him and his peers.
