For Your Consideration - Korean Western Edition

For Your Consideration is a weekly round-up of upcoming indie limited releases. The idea is to either expose you to or remind you of films that can't afford to plaster their posters on the sides of buildings or accompany your Happy Meal in toy form.

It's been a while since we've had an FYC, but we're going to try to slowly bring them back. The week lacks much verbal recommendation, as we'll let these trailers stand for themselves. All we can say is - Korean cinema is a guaranteed good time.
