This extensive archive focuses on Kim Han-yong's photographs of film productions in the 1950s and 1960s.

Kim Han-yong (1924-2016) is one of South Korea's most important commercial photographers. He began his career in 1947, initially as a photojournalist. Throughout his life, Han-yong continued to take photographs in various genres, but never stopped documenting everyday life with his camera.
During the 1950s and 1960s, he produced countless photographs on the sets of Korean films, taking stills to promote the films, as well as behind-the-scenes material documenting the production itself, capturing directors, actors and other crew members, sets and exteriors. His photographs are one of the few visual records of one of the most important periods in the history of Korean cinema.
With an extensive introductory text and additional essays by Lee Young June, Lim Young, Kong Youngmin, and Kim Jeung Eun, "Still Cut" will prove an invaluable addition to the visual and cultural study of Korean cinema history.
