Program Note
After their mother’s funeral, Myung-eun proposes her half sister Myung-ju a trip to where her father lives. Not theirs, but hers. A hard-grained career woman Myung-eun wants to recall the memories of her father and deal with her wounded mind, while Myung-ju, like their mother, a carefree fish trader and an unmarried mother of a young daughter, doesn’t care about her sister’s interest. On their trip, two sisters start to quarrel over their differences, share their father’s secrets, and reminisce their past days on the road to past. Director Boo Ji Young captures delicately subtle atmosphere floating between women, also the inscrutable life through the secret of the father at the end of the film. (LEE Sang-yong)
