Mal-Mo-E: The Secret Mission (2019)
Imprisoned several times during the 1940s, when Korea was under Japanese occupation, Kim Pan-Soo is illiterate and does not know how to read or write Korean Hangeul or any other language. The teaching of Korean in the schools is banned by the Imperial Japanese government. He meets a representative of the Korean Language Society and joins forces to publish a dictionary of the Korean language. The story is a fictional treatment of both the work of the Korean Language Society and the 1942 Korean Language Society Incident.
