SUMMARY:Film: A Tale of Two Sisters (장화\, 홍련)
DESCRIPTION:A Tale of Two Sisters (장화\, 홍련)\nDirector: Kim Jee-woon \nFriday\, August 7th\, 2026 at 9:00 PM \nSynopsis: In a remote rural village\, at the end of a quiet country road lined with wildflowers\, stands a solitary Japanese-style wooden house. By day\, the house is picturesque enough to seem as though the sound of a piano might drift from its windows. But when darkness falls\, it takes on a chilling and ominous presence. \nIt is in this house\, steeped in an unsettling atmosphere\, that two beautiful sisters\, Su-mi and Su-yeon—neither quite children nor adults—begin living with their elegant yet emotionally volatile stepmother. From the day they move in together\, a terrifying family ghost story begins to unfold. \nAfter returning home from a lengthy stay in Seoul for treatment\, the sisters are warmly welcomed by their stepmother\, Eun-joo. Despite her apparent affection\, the girls clearly feel uneasy around her. From their very first day back\, strange occurrences begin to plague the household. Family members experience disturbing visions and suffer from recurring nightmares. \nDetermined to care for her younger sister and her father\, Moo-hyeon\, in place of their deceased mother\, Su-mi takes on the role of protector. Su-yeon\, who bears a striking resemblance to her late mother\, lives in constant fear. Tensions quickly escalate between the sensitive and unstable Eun-joo and the two sisters\, while their father remains a passive observer of the growing conflict. \nAs Eun-joo’s emotional instability deepens and fear begins to consume the household\, Su-mi struggles desperately to protect her sister. Meanwhile\, a series of increasingly bizarre and terrifying events unfolds throughout the house… \nTickets: Free (RSVP Required)

SUMMARY:Live Jazz Night\, Jinju Kim Quartet
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Sunday\, August 30\, for an exceptional live jazz performance at NOFLEX. This special Live Jazz Night features the New York-based Jinju Kim Quartet\, led by a rising star from South Korea\, in collaboration with world-renowned guitar maestro Pasquale Grasso. \n​Jinju Kim is a captivating jazz singer who grew up listening to everything from classical music to 50s jazz standards and old pop. Falling in love with legends like Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughan\, she went to the Netherlands to study jazz at the Prince Claus Conservatoire. Later\, she was selected for the master’s program at the prestigious Aaron Copland School of Music at Queens College by David Berkman. Since moving to New York in the fall of 2024\, she has been making a name for herself in the local jazz scene\, playing with talented young musicians and top masters alike. \n​This performance marks a special collaboration with guitar maestro Pasquale Grasso. Based in New York\, Grasso plays with such extraordinary command that jazz legend Pat Metheny called him “the best guitar player I’ve heard in maybe my entire life.” He brings the clear and upbeat improvisation of the great bebop tradition—like Bud Powell and Charlie Parker—right to the stage with a modern touch. Joining them are two of New York’s finest: bassist Ari Roland and drummer Keith Balla. \n​Join us at NOFLEX to experience the deep roots and fresh energy of New York jazz. The night will feature two intimate 45-minute sets\, with 7 to 8 songs per set. We’ll also be serving a fantastic craft cocktail program and a delicious food menu to pair perfectly with the music\, making for a truly immersive and unforgettable evening. \nJinju Kim Quartet\n· Vocal — Jinju Kim @jinju_jinju\n· Guitar — Pasquale Grasso @pasqualegrassomusic\n· Drums — Keith Balla\n· Bass — Ari Roland \n· Sunday\, August 30\n· Doors open 6PM\n· First set 7PM / Second set 8PM\n· NOFLEX NYC | 286 5th Ave\, New York\, NY 10001
