SYNOPSIS

The Documentarymentary is about the 8-day sit-in struggle by Kang Cheolmin, a private soldier who declared his objection to military service on November 21, 2003 in order to stop South Korean government from sending troops to Iraq, and his supporting participants.

DIRECTING INTENTION

Looking through Kang Cheolminm's devotion to stop troop dispatch to Iraq, this Documentarymentary features a small but strong 'human' figure who keeps his faith and conscience in the days of war and violence. People voluntarily gathered to the room 708 to uphold Kang's cause and participated the sit-in struggle where heart-breaking but beautiful memories remained.
