12 Notable Korean Movies Released in 2025 (Part 1 of 2) Several Korean films were released in 2025, spanning a range of genres, including action thrillers, romance, supernatural, and fantasy. PopGeeks published reviews of twelve (12) impressive films released that year. Here is a handy 2-Part list. (1) “Dark Nuns“, a spin-off of “The Priests” (2015), is categorized as Supernatural. Two Catholic nuns defy ecclesiastical authority to heal a young boy possessed by a demon. The church leaders summon a priest who is also a psychiatrist. The boy is simply suffering from a mental illness that can be treated by medical science. One of the nuns had the same “illness” when she was younger, and that same priest treated her. He said he cured her. But she was never sick. She was gifted and quite capable of exorcising evil spirits. The spirits afflicting the young boy are tied to centuries-old apparitions and forbidden rituals. (2) “Good News” is a 2025 Korean movie, categorized as Black Comedy, Satire, and Thriller; inspired by a real-life hijacking. A 1970 Japanese commercial flight is hijacked by militants from the Japanese Red Revolutionary Army. They demanded passage to Pyongyang, North Korea. Declaring armed revolution against the elite and bourgeois autocrats, the group believes it controls the situation.

New Year Blues (2021) Reframes Love and Renewal For the New Year “New Year Blues” is a 2021 Korean movie, multiple love stories categorized as Romance and Comedy (Rom-Com), and streaming on Viki and other platforms. Memorable Quotes (paraphrased): “Starting over isn’t about forgetting the past — it’s about giving yourself permission to hope again.” (Inspired by Ji ho and Hyo young’s healing arc.) “Sometimes the new year doesn’t magically fix anything… but it gives us a reason to try again.” (Reflects the film’s central message about renewal.) “You don’t have to be perfect to be loved — just honest.” (Echoes the vulnerability between Jae-heon and Jin-ah in Argentina.) “Even when life feels out of control, we can choose the direction of our next step.” (A sentiment tied to Rae Hwan’s storyline as a Paralympic athlete.) SUMMARY: Four distinct couples navigating challenges of love and life in the week before the New Year, weaving humor, heartbreak, and hope into an ensemble romance. Each story reflects universal truths about second chances, personal growth, and the courage to open one’s heart again. ♦ MEET Couples 1 and 2 New Year Blues interweaves the lives of four distinct couples whose personal journeys converge in the week leading up to the New Year, exploring the unpredictability of love […] The post New Year Blues (2021) Reframes Love and Renewal For the New Year appeared first on PopGeeks.com Forum | Indie Games, Movies, TV, Tabletop & Comics.

Default (2018) ~ Korea’s 1997 Financial Crisis Drama Unpacked “Default” (2018) is a 2018 Korean film categorized as a Financial Thriller, and is currently streaming on Viki. The film is based on actual events, but the characters are fictional, and it is not an exact reenactment. Memorable Quote: “All investors, leave Korea, right now.” SUMMARY: Set during the 1997 Asian financial crisis, a government official, a financial analyst, and a small business owner confront the looming collapse of South Korea’s economy. Their intertwined stories reveal the human cost of high-level decisions made in secret negotiations with the IMF. ♦ Three Parallel Stories “Default” begins in the tense week leading up to South Korea’s 1997 request for an International Monetary Fund bailout, following three interconnected characters whose lives are reshaped by a looming national default. (1) Han Shi-Hyun is a senior monetary-policy manager at the Bank of Korea. She detects early signs of a catastrophic liquidity crisis as foreign reserves drain and corporate debt mounts. Han Shi-Hyun urges immediate action and presses for a high-level task force and transparent communication with the public. Instead, she encounters denial and bureaucratic inaction. Her struggle becomes an internal battle against institutional complacency as she pushes leaders to acknowledge the severity of the situation […] The post Default (2018) ~ Korea’s 1997 Financial Crisis Drama Unpacked appeared first on PopGeeks.com Forum | Indie Games, Movies, TV, Tabletop & Comics.
