During his time at the Korea National University of Arts, OH In-chun was a prolific short filmmaker focusing on genre cinema, including horror, sci-fi and action films. Some of his early credits include <A Moment> (2010), <Crank Up> (2010) and particularly <Metamorphoses> (2011), a 25-minute action film that demonstrated his knack for combining tight action choreography and technique with a droll sense of humor. Soon after, OH got his chance to take a stab at a feature-length project with the comedy horror <Mourning Grave>, released in the summer of 2014. Though he had to adjust to a shortened production timeline, OH delivered a film that was a modest success, no small feat for a horror film in contemporary Korean cinema, and also performed strongly on the festival circuit and with international distributors. The film screened at the Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival, where it picked up the NETPAC Award for Best Asian Film and went on to screen at many other events, including the Fantas Porto - Oporto International Film Festival, where it won the Best Screenplay prize. Shortly after, OH released the omnibus <12 Deep Red Nights: Chapter 1> in 2015, which he had been working on and off since 2013.Less
