"This paper examines Korean director Park Chan-wook's films Old Boy and Joint Security Area. It focuses on how Park Chan-wook's shot design successfully establishes and expresses a visual language of complex feelings and nuanced human emotion. It also analyzes how Park Chan-wook utilizes his role as director to create films that explore themes of human vulnerability and struggle whilst presenting tales of sensational gore and violence.
