- PROGRAM NOTE
- Theater actor Wanju has an interesting part-time job. He serves as a stand-in boyfriend for single woman and helps unpopular guys find dates. One day, a murder is committed in an alleyway near his house. Wanju isn’t concerned about what happened because the incident had nothing to do with him. But then he’s asked to make a statement about the killing. Vowing that the murderer has to be properly punished, the mother of the victim offers Wanju a lot of money to falsely testify about the murder. Wanju accepts the offer and claims that he saw the murderer at the scene. But then he realizes that his false testimony brands an innocent young man as the murderer. To get the investigation back on track, Wanju seeks out the person who asked him to lie, only to discover that she isn’t who she said she was. A mystery-thriller that reveals the vicious consequences that can come from one seemingly simple lie. (NAM Dong-chul)
