Kickstarter

Dear backers and would-be backers,

Thanks to your great support, we are reaching toward $20,000! We're not so far from making our dream come true.

Today I want to introduce our co-producers who earned the sweet title by pledging more than $1,000. So far, we have 8 co-producers on board, but now we're introducing the three co-producers who kindly allowed us to do so. Believe us, we won't expose your personal information without your consent.

1. Tell us about yourself in a way you like to describe yourself. 

My name is Kieron Casey and I live in Bradford, UK. I currently work in internet marketing but my main passion lies in films - I love Korean cinema in particular and especially films such as Christmas In August, The Housemaid (1960), My Sassy Girl and Oasis. I've been learning Korean for a while - but I'm not brilliant yet!

2. How long have you been involved in Kickstarter? How did you come about Remember O Goddess?

This is my first Kickstarter campaign! I've never been involved in film funding, production or anything like this but I came across this opportunity through Hanguk Yeonghwa's mailing list - I read about the project, watched the first 25 minutes and decided I would do everything I could to make this project happen! I really need to see how this film is going to end.

3. What attracted you to become a coproducer of Remember O Goddess?

I really want to see a finished, full length version of Remember O Goddess for a start! It would be crazy of me to not offer my help and support to what is shaping up to be a unique and exciting project like this - I believe it will be the first ever crowd funded Korean indie film and, as such, its a once in a lifetime opportunity to be a small part of a historic event.

My name is Jiyoon Jessica Suh, live in Busan, Korea.

I work for APEC HRDWG and the manager of the official Korean APEC Project called APEC e-Learninig Training Program.

Managing and Nurturing the Human Resources and Network in this world to achieve the balanced growth are my expertise.

One of my strong beliefs which came from my experience is that the nonverbal language such as culture or heart feeling is much more powerful and basic means to understand and connect human as the one.

With this idea, I've always dreamed of being investor for qualified culture item if I could have any chance. Thanks to Director Yoon Jung, Lee who gave this wonderful chances that I can start my own will at the first time.

2. How long have you been involved in Kickstarter? How did you come about Remember O Goddess?

To be honest, this is my first time to be involved in Kickstarter. I am sure I will activate my support continuously more and more for other potential special films from this start. The first route that I found the Remember O Goddess is leaded by the hero on this film.

Since Actor Jungtae Kim is very popular actor in these days, I also became one of his biggest fans and take a high interest on his film. Thanks to him, I’ve searched the films that he showed up and get the info of Remember O Goddess by chance.

3.What attracted you to become a co-producer of Remember O Goddess?

Not only the actor Jungtae Kim’s new acting style, but the fashionable views were tempting. 

The lonely man with amnesia in one of the most congested cities is the story that I met at first. On this film, in 25 minutes, the mysterious atmosphere keeps surrounding hero and me (audience). With sense of kinship, loneliness and chaos, I cannot wait to match the whole puzzle of his mysterious memories and the other hidden truth. Moreover, the sub-title of the film ‘FILM NOIR, ADVENTURE and LOVE’ drags my interest more. Since I have no expert knowledge about film, I became very curious how those genres could be blended appropriately.

I am very looking forward to hearing the news of this film could finally crank in by kick starter project.  I strongly believe that my taste can be representative of public, when this film has finally made, lots of interest will be focused on this film for sure. You can count on that.

I hope many of you can join this project as the culture developer.
