Jang Jin#Theater

Jang dreamed of becoming a musician in middle school, but his ambition changed when he saw his first theater play in his freshman year of high school. As a high school student, he acted in more than 40 plays, receiving good reviews and a few awards for his performances. After majoring in theater studies at Seoul Institute of the Arts, he joined the writing team for the SBS variety show Good Friends in the mid-1990s. He created his own portion Hollywood Message, which he wrote and edited by himself, where he would take famous scenes from some of the most popular Hollywood films showing in theaters, and make parodies, add silly popups, mix scenes from different films together to form a bizarre, unique collage of images. Because of his contribution, ratings for the show surged to unexpected heights.{{cite web|title=K-FILM REVIEWS: 박수칠 때 떠나라 (Murder, Take One)|url=http://twitchfilm.com/reviews/2006/01/korean-dvd-reviews-murder-take-one.php|work=Twitch Film|date=2 January 2006|access-date=2011-06-14|archive-url=https://archive.today/20120720201206/http://twitchfilm.com/reviews/2006/01/korean-dvd-reviews-murder-take-one.php|archive-date=2012-07-20|url-status=dead}}

In January 1995, Jang entered newspaper daily The Chosun Ilbo's annual literary contest with Cheonho-dong Crossroad, his first full-fledged script. Using three characters which would feature in most of his theater plays and early films (Hwa-yi, Dal-soo and Deok-bae), his new and creative brand of storytelling won over the judges, who awarded him the top prize. He wrote his first stage play Heotang ("labor in vain") at the age of 21 while serving his military duty,{{cite web|last=Lee|first=Claire|title=Jang Jin shares his 'not so funny' earlier years|url=http://view.koreaherald.com/kh/view.php?ud=20120701000302|work=The Korea Herald|date=1 July 2012}} and his followup Clumsy People,{{cite web|last=Cho|first=Chung-un|title=Jang Jin's robbery-romance farce takes the Daehangno stage|url=http://www.hancinema.net/jang-jin-s-robbery-romance-farce-takes-the-daehangno-stage-11767.html|work=The Korea Herald via Hancinema|date=17 December 2007|access-date=14 June 2011|archive-date=24 July 2008|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080724155956/http://www.hancinema.net/jang-jin-s-robbery-romance-farce-takes-the-daehangno-stage-11767.html|url-status=live}}{{cite web|title=This Week's Cultural News VCR 1|url=http://www.hancinema.net/this-week-s-cultural-news-vcr-1-39165.html|work=Arirang News via Hancinema|date=24 February 2012|access-date=2 August 2012|archive-date=12 November 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121112100022/http://www.hancinema.net/this-week-s-cultural-news-vcr-1-39165.html|url-status=live}}{{cite web|title=This Week's Cultural News VCR 1|url=http://www.arirang.co.kr/News/News_View.asp?nseq=126392&code=Ne2&category=2|work=Arirang News|date=24 February 2012|access-date=14 November 2012|archive-date=3 November 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121103053926/http://www.arirang.co.kr/News/News_View.asp?nseq=126392&code=Ne2&category=2|url-status=dead}} not only granted him much praise, but was also a big success, and allowed actress Song Chae-hwan to win the Best Actress Award at the Seoul Theater Festival. At the same time, he was helping adapt Song Jae-hee's original into what became A Hot Roof, a feminist comedy where a group of women from all walks of life protest their position in society from the roof of a building, while their husbands and the rest of the city try to cope with all that in the midst of one of the hottest summers Korea had ever seen.

It would take another few years before Jang could start working full-time in Chungmuro, but during that time, he built a reputation as one of the most brilliant theater directors in the country, with unique scripts and characters who came across as real even in the most surreal of situations. His 1997 play Taxi Driver was a huge success, displaying his wit and talent for snappy dialogue. The original starred Choi Min-sik as Deok-bae, a taxi driver from the countryside who decides to come to the city, buys a private taxi after his mother sold some land, and hopes to finally make a change in his miserable life.

The success of his theater plays raised his profile in the industry. Veteran TV drama director Kim Jong-hak commissioned Jang for a script, but the project was delayed. Jang decided to shop around his script, which led to his debut feature 1998 comedy The Happenings (though only half of what he shot ended up in the final cut).

In 1999 Jang founded the theater troupe Suda, and among his regulars were Jung Gyu-soo, Shin Ha-kyun, Jung Jae-young and Jang Young-nam. After working on the play Magic Time, he then shot his second film The Spy, a comedy starring Yoo Oh-sung as a North Korean spy trying to steal the magic formula of the South's "super pig" to combat the famine.

The rest of Jang's career brought him to the top of Korea's A-list directors, with the same brand of "Jang Jin style" crowd pleasers, such as Guns & Talks, a black comedy about four talkative assassins. In 2000 Jang established his own film production outfit [https://web.archive.org/web/20080113122439/http://www.filmitsuda.com/ Film It Suda], hiring his "family" of fellow writers, producers and directors. Their first production was the three-part omnibus No Comment in 2002.{{cite web|last=Kim|first=Kyu Hyun|title=No Comment|url=http://koreanfilm.org/kfilm02.html#nocomment|work=Koreanfilm.org|access-date=2012-08-05|archive-date=2015-09-16|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150916031501/http://koreanfilm.org/kfilm02.html#nocomment|url-status=live}}

With his theater and film successes, Jang was finally able to move on to producing and his real passion, writing. But the huge flop of the 2003 melodrama A Man Who Went to Mars (also known as A Letter from Mars, which Jang wrote) brought the company's future to a serious crossroad: either focus on hot items or risk losing everything. Though the aftermath of the film's failure was felt even in 2004, romantic comedy Someone Special had a decent box office performance despite the film's low budget, as well as glowing reviews for its stars Lee Na-young and Jung Jae-young.{{cite web|last=Soh|first=Joon|title=A Woman I Know - Shows Even Oddballs Fall in Love|url=http://www.hancinema.net/%60a-woman-i-know--someone-special-shows-even-oddballs-fall-in-love-1201.html|work=The Korea Times via Hancinema|date=24 June 2004|access-date=2 August 2012|archive-date=12 January 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140112234411/http://www.hancinema.net/%60a-woman-i-know--someone-special-shows-even-oddballs-fall-in-love-1201.html|url-status=live}}{{cite web|last=Yang|first=Sung-jin|title=Someone Special defies conventions|url=http://www.hancinema.net/-someone-special-defies-conventions-1200.html|work=The Korea Herald via Hancinema|date=24 June 2004|access-date=5 September 2013|archive-date=19 April 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210419105516/https://www.hancinema.net/-someone-special-defies-conventions-1200.html|url-status=live}} Jang then focused on adapting his successful 2000 theater play Leave When They're Applauding into the big screen. The result was 2005's Murder, Take One, about a homicide case being broadcast live for 48 hours, a whodunit with a campy take on the ratings-obsessed media and the viewers' craze for reality TV.{{cite web|last=Min|first=Dong-yong|title=Who Killed Her?

In August 2005 Jang served as theatre director for the first time on a play he didn't write himself. He directed his fellow Seoul Institute of the Arts alumni in a staging of Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman. The play commemorated the 43rd anniversary for Dongnang Arts Center affiliated to the institute and the 100th birthday of the late Yu Chi-jin, founder of the institute and the nation's first amphitheater.{{cite web|last=Bae|first=Keun-min|title=Director Jang Returns to Theatrical Play|url=http://www.hancinema.net/director-jang-returns-to-theatrical-play-3809.html|work=The Korea Times via Hancinema|date=29 August 2005|access-date=2 August 2012|archive-date=20 September 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190920102307/https://www.hancinema.net/director-jang-returns-to-theatrical-play-3809.html|url-status=live}}

Considered one of the most distinctive voices to emerge from the 1990s Korean cinema renaissance, Jang's unique filmmaking style mixes unconventional storylines, quirky characters, dry and subversive humor, comic twists, sharp puns, stagy presentation, a keen observation of society, and humanism. Jang's films do not sell millions of tickets but he has nurtured a faithful fan base that appreciates his "Jang Jin-ish" style.{{cite web|title=Jang Jin|url=http://www.koreanfilm.or.kr/jsp/films/index/peopleView.jsp?peopleCd=10060535|work=Korean Film Biz Zone|access-date=2012-08-02|archive-date=2011-07-02|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110702193110/http://koreanfilm.or.kr/jsp/films/index/peopleView.jsp?peopleCd=10060535|url-status=live}}

Jang has built up an informal "repertory company" of actors who have appeared in many roles in his films. Most notable of these is Jung Jae-young, who has appeared in ten films directed or written by Jang and whom Jang has described as his "muse" . Other frequent collaborators include Shin Ha-kyun, who has been featured in eleven films.
