Righteous Revenge

Righteous Revenge (Korean: 의리적 구토 or 의리적 구투), sometimes Loyal Revenge or Screaming for Vengeance, was a Korean kino-drama (a stageplay with a film backdrop). It was directed by Kim Do-san and premiered on October 27, 1919, at the historic movie theater Dansungsa. It is widely considered the first ever Korean movie, including by the South Korean government, although this label is disputed. The film and its script are now considered lost.

The anniversary of its premiere date is now considered Korean Film Day. Just before the premiere of the film, the companion documentary film (used for backdrops in the movie) Panoramic View of the Whole City of Gyeongseong was debuted. This film is sometimes considered the first, although it did not have actors or a plot.
