Boy Meets Boy is a Korean short film dealing with love affairs between high school mates. The director of this movie produced another Korean queer movie, No Regret. BMB is an autobiographical story of the director who's a renowned movie producer in Korea. According to his interview, finding and accepting his own sexual orientation wasn't that hard for him, unlike in most queer movies. He accepted himself with joy and so did his family and friends, I read from articles. Because it's a short film I don't know if I can get any chance to watch this film. But I hope that I'll have the opportunity.

Sang-wha-jeom or Ssang-wha-jeom is a Korean movie dealing with love triangle among a king, a queen and a king's guardian warrior. Before Chosun Dynasty, there was Corea Dynasty in Korean Peninsula. According to many historical records, Corea Dynasty was even more liberal than Chosun Dynasty where Confucianism played a big part in every area, politics, family rules and so on. So during the Corean period, women could inherit properties and love poems were allowed. The title of this movie is one of the love poem, a little bit sex poem. The main character the King, Gong-min is portrayed as gay even in records. Some says he hired many beautiful male warriors around him. But history is always re-written by the winner. So we can't be sure which is true and which is false. But at least we can say there was something "queer" about him. The movie runs in Korea on the 30th of December, this year. I'm waiting.
