SYNOPSIS

Sun-young has ajob interview on a scorching summer afternoon. But before soon, she is lost among the rows and rows of buildings and crisscross of streets that all look the same. She keeps on walking, but fails to find the place where she should be.

DIRECTING INTENTION

The older generation's always telling the young people that only if they worked harder and acquired more skills, it's easy to succeed. But in reality, it's a lot harder than one might presume. As absurd as it looks, the reality truly bites. Shoved into a small circle of competitive society, the younger generation of today is forced to fight and hurt each other. Sun-Young, the heroine of the film portraits the lost generation, wandering about the maze of gigantic industrial complex. I was hoping to reflect myself and my generaion through this film.
