In his introductory remarks before the screening of “Vanishing Time: A Boy Who Returned,” Kang Dong-won switched between Korean and English. At the Film Society of Lincoln Center, Kang said that the genre of that particular film was not common in Korea. (photo by Brent. N Clarke)

After receiving his Star Asia Award, Kang Dong-won briefly talked about his next two projects: “1987,” a film about the pro-democracy movement in South Korea; and “Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade,” a science fiction work based on the 1999 Japanese animation directed by Hiroyuki Okiura.
