Park Hoon-jung is a South Korean film director and screenwriter. Park first attracted notice within the Korean film industry for writing the screenplays for Kim Ji-woon's I Saw the Devil (2010) and Ryoo Seung-wan's The Unjust (2010).[1] He made his debut as a director in 2011 with the period film The Showdown, which was largely overlooked by Korean viewers upon its release.
