They will be shown from today to Friday at the archive's main theater in southern Seoul. The screenings start at 2:30 p.m., 5 p.m. and 7 p.m.
The screenings will feature four movies _ So Kwang-je's ``Troop Train (Kunyong Yolcha)'' (1938), An Chol-yong's ``Fisherman's Fire (Ohwa)'' (1939), Choi In-kyu's ``Homeless Angel (Chipopnun Chonsa)'' (1941) and An Sok-yong's ``A Volunteer (Chiwonbyong)'' (1941) _ as well as the documentary films ``Haebang News (Independence News)'' (1945) and ``Choson'' (1938).
