A comment from Kim Yong-hwan on the Japanese release

I'm the director Kim Yong-hwan. Japan is the center for fans of anime worldwide, so I'm delighted to know that my movie, "Your Letter," will be shown to the people of Japan.
I first fell in love with animation as a child when the teacher in my art class showed us Hayao Miyzaki's "Castle in the Sky," and have broadened my horizons with a wide variety of Japanese anime since. Of these, I found the works of Shinkai Makoto particularly inspiring, and have watched nearly all of those that have been released. Given my background, I'm deeply moved and tremendously honored that "Your Letter" be distributed by CoMix Wave Films.

Let me say once again how happy I am to have my work shown to a Japanese audience once more. I can't imagine anything that would make me happier than knowing that this story, which starts with a mysterious letter, could touch the hearts of Japanese anime fans. I hope you enjoy it!
