It relates a time-slip story which takes Jung Yak Yong, known as Dasan, one of the greatest thinkers in the later Joseon period, from the past in 1818 to the present in 2022, as he becomes elected as the 20th president of the Republic of Korea. Jung Yak Yong was a Korean agronomist, philosopher, and poet. During his time, he wrote highly influential books about philosophy, science and theories of government and held significant administrative positions.
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:

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.
