Index of the 1970s: Choi In-hyeon
28th August 2011
Director Choi In-hyeon was born in Jinju, South Gyeongnam Province on October 24, 1928. He became interested in studying drama while he was in middle school. When Kim So-dang remade the classic, lost film Arirang in 1957, Choi was given a part. Although it was his only acting part, it got him interested in working in film. In the 60s, he joined Shin Sang-ok’s production company, Shin Films and began making movies. He made more than 60 films over the years, 29 of them in the 1970s. By 1979, his career was just about finished. He made just three more films in the years between 1980 and his death in 1990. The films shown below completes his 1970s filmography.
