The Reputable Family is a 2010 South Korean television series starring Cha In-pyo, Han Go-eun, Kim Sung-min, and Lee Hee-do. It aired on KBS1 from January 1 to February 21, 2010 on Saturdays and Sundays at 21:40 for 16 episodes. The historical drama revolves around the Choi family, a famous clan based in Gyeongju, North Gyeongsang Province. After the death of the head of their family, Choi Jin-lip during the second Manchu invasion of Korea, his grandson Guk-seon vows to reclaim the honor of his clan. The Choi family must overcome obstacles and hardships both in their hometown Gyeongju, and in Hanyang. Many of the scenes were filmed at the Korean Folk Village in Seoul. The series failed to attract many viewers, receiving an average rating of 10.9%. But it was recognized as a well-made drama among critics.

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.
