About An Old Man's Death
An elderly man's son, dissatisfied at living with his father's senility, forces his wife to abandon his father in the park. Another couple take pity on him and invite him to their home, but when they realize how much care he requires, they return him to the park.
Directed by Kim Ki, An Old Man's Death leans on a strong ensemble — Lee Nak-hoon, Han Jin-hee, Kim Young-ae — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1979.
