Baek Yoon-shik is a renowned Korean actor whose credits include over 15 films. "Save the Green Planet," which screened at Cannes, Toronto, New York Film Festival and Rotterdam, garnered 9 international awards out of its 10 nominations, including several wins for Baek's acting. The film was released theatrically by CJ in Korea and in the US and UK/Europe by Koch-Lorber and Tartan.

In 2006, Baek was hailed for his stellar performance in the "The President's Last Bang." An official selection of Cannes, New York, Telluride and Toronto film festivals, the film was released by Kino International overseas to critical acclaim: "A wildly funny whirlwind" (New York Magazine); "Utterly bracing black comedy" (Premiere Magazine); "Cult status awaits"(Todd David Schwartz, CBS).

Baek's latest film "Tazza: The High Roller," was #1 at the Korean box office, earning $44M, and making it one of the top five highest-grossing Korean films of all time. The New York Times called it "a terrific film about the sensual energy and reckless optimism of youth." The San Francisco Chronicle raved, "It's a ton of fun, a totally irresistible tale," and Variety praised,"Casting, direction and script...all come up trumps...Baek, who played the mastermind in 'Swindle' and a key role in 'The President's Last Bang' is aces."
