‘Decision to Leave,’ ‘Dangerous Liaisons’ Stars Tang Wei and Jang Dong-gun to Receive Excellence Honor at Asian Film Awards


Korea's Jang Dong-gun and China's Tang Wei will be honored with the Excellence in Asian Cinema Award at the upcoming 18th Asian Film Awards.

The first movie I ever watched in a theatre was Jackie Chan’s ‘Drunken Master,'” Jang said, calling the 1980s “a golden age that still resonates with me today.” His filmography includes the 2001 gangster classic “Friend” and the war epic “Tae Guk Gi,” which earned him best actor at the Blue Dragon Film Awards. Known for her versatility across Chinese, Korean and international productions, Tang has delivered acclaimed performances in Ang Lee’s “Lust, Caution,” “Finding Mr. Right,” Ann Hui’s “The Golden Era,” and most recently in Park Chan-wook’s “Decision to Leave,” which earned her multiple best actress accolades.
