Program Note

Failed North Korean spy Lee Dong-gyu remains in the South, as a defector working at an auto repair. Then one day, he’s kidnapped. The story examines the collision between espionage and daily life. In perceiving the situations of the characters as natural for them as well as for us, the mundane turns into something that resonates in the public mind. (MOON Woong)
