Lim Dae-hyung is a writer-director just starting out. He graduated in film and theater from Hanyang University in Seoul. He has scripted and shot two shorts, Lemon Time (2013) and The World of IF (2014).
Merry Christmas Mr. Mo (2016), screened to accolades at the IFFs in Busan and Buenos Aires, is his feature debut. The director commented on his subtle and sophisticated tragicomedy: "I wished to restore a certain period of time and space from our past. I intended to return some of the essential human emotions back to where they used to be, which are discarded as something outdated and sentimental in today's society."
