Biography from TheMovieDB

Kim Min Seok, formerly known as Laun, is a South Korean singer, dancer, actor and former member of ONF (short for ON N' OFF). He graduated from Seoul Performing Arts High School, focusing on Practical Dance. Before debuting, he was a trainee at BigHit Entertainment alongside BTS. After switching companies, he was introduced as part of WM Boys with their first appearance as B1A4's backup dancers at the 2016 Dream Concert in Seoul and later, he gave a performance (alongside his fellow groupmates) at IDOLCON just a few months before debuting. He made his official debut in 2017 as member of both sub-units ON and main dancer, sub-vocalist and maknae of the group with their 1st EP "ON/OFF". Weeks later, he entered the survival competition "MIXNINE" and finished in 7th place, however, the companies could never reach an agreement and the project group that was planned after the show never got to debut. In 2018, the group signed a contract with Victor Entertainment and made their Japanese debut and held a concert in Tokyo. In 2019, he made his acting debut with a role in tvN's web drama "Chubby Romance 2" and later that year the company announced he was leaving the group due to personal circumstances that were never fully clarified. He opened his personal IG account in mid-2020 and has returned to using his birth name.

About the Movie Section

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).

Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.

Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)

While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).

Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.

Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
