About This List

The 2025 Sarasaroun (Personal) Film List was curated by a panel of 20 contributors, including film critics, festival programmers, film journalists, and media writers.

Eligible works include those that had their first public screening at international or domestic film festivals, or were publicly released in Korea between November 2024 and October 2025.
TV series released within the same period were also considered, as well as restored works—provided that the newly restored version was first introduced during this timeframe.

Each contributor assembled their own list based on these criteria, guided by their personal reflections and perspectives on cinema.

All lists are organized in Korean alphabetical order (by film title).
A selection of the listed films will be screened at Cinematheque KOFA.
In addition, several contributors will write short essays on a film of their choice from their list, to be published on KMDb throughout 2026.

We extend our sincere thanks to all contributors for their thoughtful participation this year.
