The film ‘Rectangle, Triangle’ directed by actor Lee Hee-jun and ‘Gyulre Gyulre’ starring him were officially invited to the 26th Jeonju International Film Festival.

Lee Hee-jun’s ‘Rectangle, Triangle’, officially invited to the Korean Cinema section of the 26th Jeonju International Film Festival, depicts a story that unfolds as old conflicts gradually surface at a family gathering that was supposed to be a good one.Following the autobiographical short film ‘Byeong-hun’s Day ‘in 2018, Lee meets the audience once again as a director.

The Jeonju International Film Festival said, “‘ Rectangle, Triangle ‘is a film that sharply and humorously shows the nature of family, and it seems to have been filmed in a limited space, an actual villa.Director Lee Hee-joon’s ability to extract dense performances from the actors in a difficult environment where the seats were full is amazing.”

In addition, Lee Hee-jun will visit Jeonju as an actor for the film ‘Gyulre Gyulre’, in which he will work with director Ko Bong-soo again after ‘Somewhat High Humidity’.’Gyulre Gyulre’ is a work that humorously and warmly expresses the complexity and wounds of human relationships, and Lee Hee-jun will participate in the opening ceremony, as well as in the audience dialogue(GV)and various events, and will personally tell the behind-the-scenes stories related to the work.

The 26th Jeonju International Film Festival will be held from April 30 to May 9 in Jeonju Cinema Street and throughout Jeonju.
