Lee Hangjun, cineasta sperimentale coreano, lavora attraverso processi di ossidazione e manipolazione chimica dei supporti di film trovati (found footage). Realizza inoltre stampe a contatto di singoli fotogrammi su supporti vergini per ottenere immagini distorte degli originali, rimontandole nei suoi lavori, come per i recenti Cracked Share e Metaphysics of Sound. I suoi live-media si sviluppano normalmente in composizioni multischermiche installate in teatri e gallerie d'arte. È insegnante, teorico e curatore del mondo della cinematografia sperimentale coreana e internazionale.
