As you may have noticed, only one film — (Why Has Bodhi-Dharma Left for the East (1989) by Bae Yong-kyun) — is 33 years young, while the other nine, are "breathing" for more than half a century. All nine, by their unique presence, quality as well as ability, have overcome the burden of the passage of Time, which easily could have obstructed them from being remembered among the 'Greatest Films of All Time’ and asserting their existence.
