Program Note

Yeong-eun (Kwak Sun-young), a swimming instructor, lives alone with So-hyun, her 7-year-old daughter. So-hyun exhibits increasingly violent tendencies, which are spiraling out of control. 20 years later, new characters emerge: Min (Kwon Yu-ri) and Hae-yeong (Lee Sul), who deal with cases of solitary deaths and live together. They each harbor their own personal hell. In that damp hell, the presence of the mother is ever-present. The strength of Somebody lies in its multiple facets. It skillfully turns our focus into a character-searching game through bold developments, while also consistently posing heavy questions about family and motherhood. In summary, it has a relentless and compelling appeal. (HONG Eunmi)
