Yoon Jong-bin (born December 20, 1979) is a South Korean film director.

Biography

Yoon Jong-bin étudie à l'université Chung-Ang dont son film de fin d'études est The Unforgiven , qui traite des codes dans l'armée coréenne. En dépit de son budget limité, le film est un grand succès au Festival international du film de Busan de 2005 et remporte plusieurs prix, dont le NETPAC. Il est ensuite projeté dans de nombreux festivals, remportant des prix et est reconnu par la critique internationale.

Son deuxième film, Beastie Boys , traite de la prostitution masculine à travers des hommes travaillant dans de discrets bars des quartiers branchés du sud de Séoul.

Dans son troisième film, Nameless Gangster, Yoon s'attaque à la corruption chez les procureurs et les agents des douanes et leur collusion avec la mafia (kkangpae ) dans le Busan des années 1980-1990. À la différence de ses deux premiers films, la saga de gangsters de Yoon est populaire au box-office et devient l'un des plus grands succès nationaux de 2012.

Yoon a également exploré les thèmes de l'injustice et de la violence dans son quatrième film, Kundo, un récit sur des bandits Joseon au 19 siècle combattant les aristocrates et les fonctionnaires corrompus. En ne donnant pas au protagoniste des « caractéristiques de héros », Yoon a déclaré vouloir dire à travers le film que « ce ne sont pas des personnes spéciales ou talentueuses, mais des gens très ordinaires qui peuvent changer le monde, surtout en masse ».

Yoon a travaillé avec son ami et ancien camarade de l'université Chung-Ang, l'acteur Ha Jeong-woo, sur ses quatre projets.

South Korea, 13 October 1990. Following President Roh Tae-woo's declaration of a crackdown on organized crime, Busan businessman Choi Ik-hyun (Choi Min-sik) is arrested for embezzling billions of won from hotel construction companies, and is also charged with intimidation, kidnapping and assault. Busan public prosecutor Jo Beom-seok (Kwak Do-won) is in charge of the investigation, and especially the murder of hotel owner Heo Sam-shik (Kwon Tae-won) by mobster Kim Pan-ho (Cho Jin-woong), with whom Ik-hyun allegedly was connected. Back in March 1982, Choi was a Busan customs officer who, along with colleagues, was already taking bribes and pilfering goods. After discovering 10 kilograms of hiropon (crystal meth) in a warehouse one night, he and colleague Mr. Jang (Kim Jong-soo) approach a friend of Jang's, gangster Choi Hyung-bae (Ha Jung-woo), to sell it to Japan's yakuza, with whom Hyung-bae has ties. Ik-hyun discovers that the younger Hyung-bae is also a member of the same Choi family clan from Gyeongju and the two form a close relationship. Ik-hyun leaves his customs job and becomes a full-time businessman, with Hyung-bae taking care of the underworld side and Ik-hyun protecting him with his high-level contacts. In the mid-'80s the two forcibly take over a nightclub run by Miss Yeo (Kim Hye-eun) that is on the turf of Pan-ho. Following his humiliation, Pan-ho has the club raided by the police and Hyung-bae arrested, though Ik-hyun gets Hyung-bae released by using the Choi clan connection with Seoul public prosecutor Choi Joo-dong (Kim Eung-soo). In May 1987, Ik-hyun and Hyung-bae take their business to the next level, formally linking up with Japan's yakuza and having a connection with a hotel-casino, the Daedong, that is also on Pan-ho's turf. Pan-ho threatens a gang war with Hyung-bae, and Ik-hyun is forced to decide where his loyalties and self-survival lie.
