Great Korean / Japanese movies from the past two years

Hi all,

Aiming to get back up to speed with my Korean and Japanese movie watching.

What are your recommendations of Korean or Japanese movies made in the past two years I should check out?

Recent Korean films I've seen are:
Boomerang Family
Pluto
The Flu

Cheers!

Korean:

Nobody's Daughter Hae-won
Snowpiercer
Pieta
I Saw the Devil
The Crucible

Japanese:

Cold Fish
Jiro Dreams of Sushi
The Woodsman and the Rain
The Kirishima Thing
Himizu

Thanks wintertriangles!

In addition to Nobody's Daughter Hae-won, the director, Hong Sang-soo, typicall puts out one or two films per year, all of which are pretty interesting narrative experiments.

Kin Ki-duk also puts out one or two films every year, and while I'm not a fan, a some people on the forums are big supporters. His most recent films are Moebius and Pieta.

Wintertriangles mentioned Snowpiercer, which should be another great film from Bong Joon-ho even if the U.S. version was killed by Weinstein.

If you're willing to go slightly further back than two years, there are many great films from recent years:
Mother (dir. Bong Joon-ho)
Poetry (dir. Lee Chang-dong)
Secret Sunshine (dir. Lee Chang-dong)
Still Walking (dir. Kore-eda Hirokazu)
Tokyo Sonata (dir. Kiyoshi Kurosawa)
