Program Note
The lives of temporary workers working at supermarkets are tough. They stand by the checkout counter all day and listen to customers’ absurd demands, and still get paid very little. Sunhee, an exemplary model employee at the supermarket, is about to be promoted to a regular worker. She believes that once she becomes a regular worker, she will be able to provide more to the kids and with that hope, she works diligently. However, her dreams are destroyed all at once. The company notified that all temporary workers will be laid off. Sunhee, mother of two; single-mom Hyemi; cleaning lady, Madam Soon-rye; naive aunty Oksoon; Mijin, a lady in her 20s, resolved to go on a strike. The strike becomes more strength as Dong-joon, a regular worker that manages temporary workers, joins the strike. Nonetheless, the company plays workers against each other and Hyemi, the leader of the strike, gives up to the company’s placate and pressure. Will the workers be able to endure and win the fight? (NAM Dong-chul)
