Program Note
Jin-wook is relocated to Seoul after finishing his training at Hanawon, the training institute for Korean refugees. On his first day in Seoul, Jin-wook gets lost after shopping for bedding. Jin-wook takes a cab to find his way back home and meets a female cab driver who is also a refugee from North Korea. A few days later, Jin-wook meets Tingyun, an illegal immigrant from Vietnam, while on a bus to Pusan. Tingyun had wanted to go to Buan to find his girlfriend but instead took a bus to Pusan because he doesn’t understand Korean very well. Jin-wook decides to take Tingyun to Buan and help him. The film follows his journey quietly…how Jin-wook comes across with people who are outsiders of Korean society and how the social outcasts of Korea struggles with all the barriers, such as language, culture and overpowered capitalism. (LEE Sang-yong)
