Well it's Friday and that means we need to check on the latest film offerings.
There are two Korean films: a horror movie and a comedy, plus one of fans of the Simpsons.
Lee Jeewon shows us what to expect.
First up this week is a Korean horror movie based on a four-volume comic book published six years ago.
Titled ''Someone Behind You,'' a high school girl named Gain played by actress Yoon Jinseo is on the run amid death threats against her.
The plight begins after she witnesses the murder of her eldest aunt by her youngest.
Gain seeks to find the reason behind the attempts against her life and also the link between her and a male student who seems to know more than he's willing to tell.
Also on the silver screen is a Korean film that is a remake of a 1998 French comic thriller.
A 30-year-old actress decides to choose a prospective husband out of four guys she's interested in.
But her plan looks likely to fail when one by one the four men begin to die.
The movie premiered on Thursday and has secured positive reviews so far.
From Hollywood comes The Simpsons Movie, a satiric animation.
The movie is based on the American TV series of 18 years and hence, one of the characters say ''why pay for something you can see on TV for free?''
The plot is simple.
Homer Simpson gets in trouble and puts his hometown of Springfield in danger.
But he manages to save the day together with his son.
The core of the movie lies in expansive parody of daily lives in the U.S. from bureaucracy to environmental issues.
