Mr. Bae studied visual arts in South Korea and France, and he's an art professor in Korea. His first feature length film, "Why Has Bodhi-Dharma Left for the East?" Is probably the only film in Korean film history to be released abroad first. Its sudden debut caused quite a stir Korea, and only after a successful film festival cicuit tour in Europe, it made its screening in Korea. Despite high media and public attention, Bae remained and still remains unknown and mysterious. It is known, however, that it took more than 7 years to complete the film, and that he used his own resources for the film and did not use any professional actors. Offers from large film studios poured in, but Bae declined them and maintains a private life.
