Biography

Kim-Jho Gwang-Soo reached success as a producer in 2011 with the consecutive hits of Detective K and The Client. In 2012 he makes a debut as a director of his first feature film Du Bunui Gyulhonsikgwa Han Bunui Jangryesik (Two Weddings and a Funeral). Director Kimjho, also CEO of Generation Blue Films, a film company, decided to direct his own movie when he found that, when he produced No Regret, there has been no queer movies in the Korean film industry. With rich experience in production and aspirations for directing, the director made a spectacular debut with Boy meets boy (2009), a short film based on his own experience. His second film Just Friends? (2010) featuring two Korean young men and the mandatory military service in Korea drew many audiences who liked its bold and frank story, and won an award at the Amsterdam Gay & Lesbian Film Festival.
