Wikipedia, 08-21-2013: (Shin Sang-ok; b. October 18, 1926; d. April 11, 2006; was a prolific South Korean film producer and director, with more than 100 producer and 70 director credits; he is most famous for having been kidnapped in 1978 by the previous North Korean leader Kim Jong-il, along with his ex-wife, South Korean actress, Ch'oe, Ŭn-hŭ, for the purpose of producing critically acclaimed films; eventually escaped to the US; Shin worked in the US in the 1990s under the pseudonym Simon Sheen, directed 3 Ninjas Knuckle Up, and worked as an executive producer for 3 Ninjas Kick Back, and 3 Ninjas: High Noon at Mega Mountain; at first, Shin was reluctant to return to South Korea, because he feared that the government's security police would not believe the kidnapping story; he returned to South Korea permanently in 1994, and continued to work on new movies; his last movie as director is Kyeoul-iyagi (The Story of Winter) (2002, unreleased))
