A Tribute to the Legacy of the 'National Actor' Returns to the Screen... CGV Holds Ahn Sung-ki Memorial Screening
Eight Signature Films to Be Screened at Apgujeong Starting March 25
On March 19, CGV announced that it will hold a memorial screening to look back on the acting career of the late actor Ahn Sung-ki, who passed away in January.
From March 25 to April 14, CGV will screen eight of his representative works by era at the "Ahn Sung-ki Hall" in its Apgujeong location. The lineup includes "The Housemaid," in which he appeared as a child actor, as well as "The Windy But Pleasant Day," "Whale Hunting," "Chilsu and Mansu," "Nowhere to Hide," "Radio Star," "Unbowed," and "Cassiopeia."
The Ahn Sung-ki Hall, where the event will take place, was established in 2016 as a tribute to filmmakers who have elevated the status of Korean cinema. This year, which marks its 10th anniversary, adds further significance to the memorial screening.
