Yoon Jong-bin (born December 20, 1979) is a South Korean film
director.Yoon Jong-bin's Chung-Ang University graduation thesis film
was The Unforgiven, which portrayed masculine codes in the Korean
military with honesty and sensitivity. And despite its rough edges due
to technical limitations and a low budget, the film was a smash hit at
the 2005 Busan International Film Festival and won several awards,
including the NETPAC. It went on to travel to a number of festivals,
winning awards and international critical acclaim.His sophomore effort
Beastie Boys (also known as The Moonlight of Seoul) showed another
side of men -- male hosts who serve female clients in discreet salons
tucked into the affluent fashion districts of southern Seoul.In his
third film Nameless Gangster: Rules of the Time, Yoon tackled
corruption among prosecutors and customs officers and their collusion
with the mob in 1980-1990s Busan. Unlike his first two films, Yoon's
gangster saga was popular at the box office and became one of the
biggest domestic hits of 2012.
