...drinking myself to sleep again...


There are still good Korean movies coming out, but not as many as before.
Maybe I am biased though, I watched over a hundred of them a few years ago and there were dozens of great movies in there. Could be that with that selection gone it just seems like there are less interesting ones.
After seeing Thirst, The Chaser, A Dirty Carnival, Man from Nowhere and A Bittersweet Life in one week it becomes very hard to appreciate a movie that is just fine.

New World (2013) is just a bit older than 4 years, but definitely one of my favorites. Check that out if you like crime thrillers like The Departed
Stoker is also 2013 and might not count (Park Chan-Wook, but American cast), but it is top notch.
Villainess has a slow and unoriginal story that really doesn't add anything to the action, but oh man is the action worth it. It starts with a Hardcore Henry-like scene, but evolves into much more. Crazy kinetic camerawork.
Okja and The Wailing were already mentioned, definitely check those.
