Career

[edit]

Director Park In-je entered the world of film directing after graduating from Korea National University of Arts.[1] In 2001, Park made his debut as a director and screenwriter with the short film Happy Death. Two years later, in 2003, he directed and wrote the screenplay for another short film titled The End of the Road, which garnered the grand prize at the 4th Mise-en-scène Short Film Festival.[2]

While working on a story about a journalist, Park discovered an the true story about a soldier named Yun Seok-yang, an army soldier serving in the Defense Security Command of Korea's Armed Forces. In 1990, Yun left his military base and took a floppy disk with a secret list of important people, for example former presidents and religious leaders. This list had been secretly investigated by the Defense Security Command. Yun decided to reveal the contents of the disk at a press conference because he believed it was the right thing to do.[3] This story inspired Park to make a movie called Moby Dick, which is about a journalist trying to uncover a secret organization that controls the government.[4]

Park co-directed Kim Eun-hee's Kingdom Season 2 with Kim Seong-hun.[5]

In February 2021, it was reported that the agreement between the co-producers JTBC and Next Entertainment World had been cancelled. As a result, Park In-je replaced Director Mo Wan-il as the director of the Disney+ Original Moving.[6][7]
