Dive into one of South Korea’s most powerful and emotionally charged films of the new millennium—JSA: Joint Security Area, directed by Park Chan-wook, the visionary auteur known for Oldboy, The Handmaiden, and Decision to Leave.Set in the tense no-man’s land of the Korean Demilitarized Zone, JSA begins with a mysterious fatal shooting involving soldiers from both North and South. As a neutral investigator — Major Sophie E. Jean — uncovers fractured truths, what emerges is a deeply moving tale of forbidden friendship, loyalty, and the tragic cost of political division.
A commercial powerhouse upon release, JSA became the highest-grossing film in South Korea at the time and earned Best Film and Best Cinematography at the Blue Dragon Film Awards, as well as sweeping major categories at the Grand Bell Awards including Best Film and Best Actor.
Critics and audiences alike praise JSA for its humane portrayal of soldiers on opposing sides and its anti-war message, exploring how empathy and connection can transcend political realities.
