- [Faculty] Professor Yoon Yong-ah’s Independent Feature Film Premieres in the U.S NEW
- Professor Yoon Yong-ah’s Independent Feature Film Premieres in the U.S —A 30-Year Project Restored with AI Technology Draws Attention— Professor Yoon Yong-ah of the Department of Acting Arts has attracted attention with the U.S release of his independent feature film, In the Land of the Blind. The film began production in 1997 while Professor Yoon was a graduate student at UCLA’s School of Theater, Film, and Television. Set in Los Angeles in 1988, the drama follows a Korean-American man as he struggles with doubts about his child’s paternity while searching for his own identity. Peter Marty, editor of the U.S. film publication Screen Anarchy, praised the film, stating, “It unfolds through small, everyday moments, gradually building momentum and leading to a remarkable conclusion.” Notably, the film’s 30-year production timeline created time gaps in the footage, which were skillfully resolved through AI restoration. Collaborating technical teams preserved the film’s original vision while enhancing its quality with modern techniques. Originally shot in the 1990s, In the Land of the Blind is now available for U.S. audiences in theaters and through online platforms, including Asian American Movies. Professor Yoon earned degrees from the NYU Tisch School of the Arts and UCLA’s graduate film program and has actively contributed as an educator in film directing and acting. He served as a professor in the Department of Film at Seoul Institute of the Arts from 2003 to 2011 and currently teaches film directing and acting at Sungkyunkwan University’s Department of Acting Arts. He has conducted research on Korean acting methods and storytelling, publishing works such as Storytelling Across Sciences, Theory and Practice of Convergent Arts II, and Scripter and Visual Continuity. In recognition of his educational and research contributions, Professor Yoon has received the Sungkyunkwan University Teaching Award and serves as an executive committee member for the Anyang International Youth Film Festival, promoting film education and culture. ※ Trailer: https://www.asianamericanmovies.com/lotb ※ Film Review: https://iii.ad/6de39f

I am deeply thankful to my family and fans.” He concluded his speech by expressing condolences to the families affected by a recent aviation tragedy.

- Department of Acting Arts Collaborates with French Music School on Joint Film Production through WAVE NEW
- Department of Acting Arts Collaborates with French Music School on Joint Film Production through WAVE (Professor Jaeho Yun, Department of Acting Arts) In the 2nd semester of the 2024 academic year, students in Professor Yoon Jae-ho’s “Intermediate Film Production Practice” course in the Department of Acting completed a team project to produce a joint film in collaboration with France’s École Municipale de Musique through the WAVE* global cooperative education program. * WAVE (Worldwide Alliance for Virtual Exchange) is a digital-based global education program operated by the Digital Education Innovation Center. Using an online platform, it allows students to participate in remote exchange courses, team projects, and discussion-based learning with partner universities overseas. The course provided an opportunity for students from Sungkyunkwan University and the French music school to share lessons and collaborate in real time through a digital platform. Twenty Korean students and ten French students were divided into five teams, each planning and producing a film as part of the class. This hands-on, team-based approach created a rich environment for active interaction and collaboration between students from both institutions. Professor Yun, who ran the WAVE program for the first time in the 2nd semester of 2024, said, “I discovered that WAVE has even more benefits than I initially expected. Our students were able to experience global exchanges with peers overseas, which broadened their perspectives. I also saw them engage in meaningful discussions about each other’s cultures.” He added that he plans to continue expanding exchanges with schools in various countries through WAVE, hoping that these experiences will positively influence students’ growth. The Digital Education Innovation Center will continue to support and expand the WAVE global cooperative education program, offering more opportunities for Sungkyunkwan University students to collaborate and interact with peers worldwide, following the successful example of Professor Yun’s “Intermediate Film Production Practice.” ※ Video link: https://youtu.be/pJmbOfucU24?si=04XHaaA_9c-PAWIQ
