Sang-ho Yeon

Sang-ho Yeun (b. 1978, Seoul) debuted with the short film D-Day (2000). His second short, The Hell: Two Kinds of Life (2006), brought the director his first award, while Love Is Protein (2008) opened the way to foreign festivals, including the competition at Santiago de Compostela. The King of Pigs is his feature debut. After premiering at Pusan, Asia’s top festival (for which he shot the official 2010 trailer), the film was recently screened in the Directors’ Fortnight at Cannes.
