Program Note
The life of runaway girls is exposed to the threats of prostitution or violent situations during the quest to find a place to stay overnight like Eunsoo and Soohyang. They save Hadam another girl being abused by a man on the street and together they seek a motel to sleep. Waiting for them are ‘uncle’ and his buddy Taesung who lock up runaway girls to pimp them for prostitution. The three are confined to their room, but manage to use Taesung’s fondness of Soohyang to escape. After settling down in an abandoned house, they desperately look for a place to live together. The girls are filled with hope when Eunsoo signs the lease to their new home which is short-lived due to an unexpected mishap. Unlike the series of films dealing with the subject of runaway teenagers such as Bad Movie(1997) and Tears(2000), Wild Flowers observes the life of runaway girls from a different perspective. Without the chance to reveal their antagonism towards the order of the status quo, these kids are pushed into the perils of extremely threatened survival. And through this all, any social system to protect them seem inexistent. (NAM Dong-chul)
