'The March of Fools' is a 1975 South Korean comedy film directed by Ha Gil-jong. Adapted from Choi In ho's novel of the same name, it was a box-office hit that created a sensation in Korean society among critics and the public and also helped cemented Ha's legendary status among the leading directors. In a 2013 KOFA poll of the top 100 Korean films, it was placed as one of the best Korean films of all time in a three-way tie for the first place with Yu Hyun-mok's 'The Aimless Bullet' (1961) and Kim Ki-young's 'The Housemaid' (1960).
