Jeong Ung Song is one of the few under-the-radar directors who is able to say a lot with a little. One need only watch his one-minute short, To Be An (which happens to his only IMDb credit despite his extensive filmography) to understand his wonderfully basic genius that extends beyond dreams of a Hollywood contract. Really, it's something to behold. I can only admire a director/screenwriter who is able to tell a convincing story -- complete with character development and a fantastic twist ending -- in the meager and almost impossible span of a minute. If that weren't impressive enough, the film itself is stylistically arresting, each shot formed with obvious care and attention to detail and cast in a lovely black and white filter that renders the visuals irresistible.
I would recommend that you check this short film out (it's on Vimeo) if you have a minute to spare. Which I'm sure you do, so check this film out.
