Mr. Vengeance, Oldboy, Lady Vengeance, I'm a Cyborg but that's Ok, Thirst, and his section of Three Extremes (Three Monsters). I'm not biased, it just so happens all of the good korean movies I've seen were directed by him. This being said, I am a huge fan of his work. Joint Security Area was early Park Chan Wook, and it doesn't even compare to his newer stuff. The Host was garbage, as are most of Joon Ho Bong's movies. There was also a korean war movie that had gotten good reviews, but I can't recall the name because it was garbage too. It should be noted that all of Park Chan Wook's movies are what I would call "movie watcher's movies". They're not for someone looking to be entertained necessarily, but they all offer interesting cinematic qualities and are usually critically acclaimed by the important people in the film community. Oldboy was voted to receive the Grand Jury Prize at Cannes the year it came out by Quentin Tarantino, who was the lead judge that year (was runner up). Thirst won the Grand Jury Prize for 2009, which, if you don't know, is the highest honor a movie can receive. | ||

Also, it's not an entirely new film. It got released in Korea a year ago (to a great reception). | ||
