Choi Kook-hee (born 1976), is a South Korean film director and screenwriter. Choi wrote and directed his debut sports film Split (2016) which won New Flesh Award for Best First Feature at the 2017 Fantasia International Film Festival. He wrote the script after seeing an autistic man bowling in a hilarious posture but with exceptionally high performance. He could not forget that man's image for days, believing that if such a genius exists, someone will try to take advantage of the genius's ability.[1][2]
