Dong Soo and Seon Hwa met while studying in Japan. They come to Korea from Japan for a happy honeymoon. But after a short and sweet honeymoon, Dong Soo was in a hit-and-run car accident. In the end, he is diagnosed with lower half body disability. Dong Soo, who is pessimistic about his situation, lives under the influence of alcohol every day. When you have to enjoy a happy honeymoon, you will have a hard time of living. Seon Hwa, a Korean-Chinese, inevitably finds a karaoke hostess job where they can use their bodies. Seon Hwa's heart was shaken by Jin Yeong, the president of the karaoke whom she met there. Eventually, Seon Hwa and Jin Yeong got into another love.
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.
