The deceased was recognized in the national and international film industry for approximately 24 years after joining in 1996, and became known as a ‘Korean-born teacher’. But the end was unfortunate. When unpleasant incidents were exposed, he died out of the world in the complete exterior of the domestic audience. Even after news of the deceased was released, domestic reactions were cold.
The news of the deceased’s death was made known for the first time through the local media. Foreign media such as Delfi reported that “Korean teacher Kim Ki-deok died of corona 19 infection and complications in Latvia” after confirming that his interpreter lived in Latvia.
In this regard, the Foreign Ministry said: “At dawn on the 11th local time, a Korean man in his 50s in Latvia confirmed that a man in his 50s died during hospital treatment due to Corona 19. Consular officials were contacted a member of the national family to inform them of the progress of local actions and to support the funeral procedure. They are providing assistance, “he said.

◆ First Korean director to win top award at the world’s top three film festivals … Disgraced exit
The life of the deceased was a hurry. As the only Korean director, he won the title of ‘Korean Born Teacher’ by winning all the major awards at the Cannes, Venice and Berlin Film Festivals, which are counted as one of the top three film festivals in the world, but his Latest movement in Korea was tainted by a sex scandal.
Director Kim debuted the film ‘Crocodile’ in 1996, and ‘Wildlife Sanctuary’, Blue Gate, Island, Unknown Recipient, Bad Man, Coastline, Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter and Spring, Samaria, Empty House ‘Bow’, ‘Breath’, ‘B-Mong’, ‘Pieta’, ‘Mobius’, ‘One-on-One’ and ‘Net’, etc., were left behind.
In particular, she was recognized for her talent by winning the Silver Bear Award at the 54th Berlin International Film Festival for the first time in a Korean film with ‘Samaria’ in 2004. That same year, she won the Silver Lion Award from the Venice International Film Festival for ‘Empty House’, the Remarkable Gaze Award from the Cannes International Film Festival for ‘Arirang’ in 2011 and the Golden Lion Award from the Venice International Film Festival (Best Prize) for ‘Pieta’ in 2012. I took it.
However, as times changed, its viability accepted evaluation of likes and dislikes. Meanwhile, he became part of the sex scandal and fell. Director Kim Ki-duk was sued in 2017 on charges of coercion, assault, and forced harassment. At that moment, the Me Too movement was actively exploding. Public opinion changed completely when charges of human rights violations and sexual violence were revealed at the filming site via MBC’s ‘PD Notebook’ in 2018.

After that, he proceeded to sue him and charge him with rebuttal, but he was not accepted and was unable to restore his honor. In January 2018, he was summoned to a 5 million won fine on assault and forced stalking charges. The accusation against the actress and the ‘PD Notebook’ was released without prosecution. The lawsuit for claiming damages worth one billion won was also lost.
◆ I tried to recover from abroad, but … Some condolences in the film industry for ‘Sad ending’
Eventually, criticism was poured out on Kim, who stopped his domestic activities and went abroad. With his work ‘Human, Space, Time, and Man’, he sought a resurgence abroad, including participating in film festivals abroad or being named president of the Moscow International Film Festival.
According to foreign media, he tried to work in Russia and Kazakhstan, and last year he served as chairman of the jury for the Mosque International Film Festival. This year, the new movie ‘Dissolve’, which was shot in Russian in Kazakhstan, was shot with local actors. This is the latest act of his self-proclaimed heresy, like proclaiming that he would not release his film in Korea.
The film industry is not very disturbed. As if he was aware of the criticism of public opinion against him, movements such as the public duel were not captured. However, some expressed regret at his death.
After the obituary, Yang-jun Jeon, Executive Chairman of the Busan International Film Festival, said via social media as ‘RIP Kim Ki Duk (1960-2020)’. I heard shocking news that he died of Corona 19 just a week before December 20. He died today, two days after being admitted to the Baltic Hospital. It is a great loss and pain that cannot be supplied in the Korean film industry, ”he wrote, saying, ‘I wish the deceased a blessing.
