Two films based on the works of Nobel Prize-winning author Han Kang will receive special screening sections later this week, CJ CGV said Monday. The films, "The Vegetarian" and "Scars," will be shown on Thursday, in celebration of the Korean novelist's recent Nobel literature award, according to the multiplex cinema chain. Directed by Lim Woo-seong, the films are adaptations of Han's novels -- "The Vegetarian," which won the International Booker Prize in 2016, and her 1999 novel, "Baby Buddha." The former was invited to the Panorama section of the Busan International Film Festival's Korean Movie Today in 2009 and the World Cinema Dramatic Competition at the Sundance Film Festival in 2000. Although neither film gained significant attention from the general public at the time of their release, they have attracted renewed interest following her prestigious win last week.
