A new football team in the K-league, Incheon United FC, is founded and Jang Oi-ryong joins the team as the head coach. One by one he accomplishes the goals he suggested, building up trust with the team. However, circumstances surrounding the team are still poor. Without enough rest between games, the players are getting tired and injured. Im Jung-yong, captain of the team, continues playing even with a serious eye injury. He finally goes to the hospital and receives the diagnosis that he is losing his eyesight because he neglected his eyestrain for too long. To preserve the team’s morale and to hide their weak point from opponents, his condition is sealed as a secret until the last game of the season.

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:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
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.
