The President's Barber is a 2004 Korean-language history movie directed by Lim Chan-sang, with a running time of 1h 56m. It stars Song Kang-ho, Lee Jae-eung and Moon So-ri.

This sharp political satire covers roughly twenty years in South Korean political history, from the viewpoint of the barber's son.
