SynopsisIn a morgue lies the lifeless body of a girl, waiting to be identified. The girl was killed in the collapse of the Sampoong Department store and a wrongful death settlement has been offered to her family. The girl's body is claimed both by a middle-aged couple, who say she is their runaway daughter, and by one of the morgue employees, whose daughter disappeared seven years ago. The story is interspersed with documentary footage from various disasters. Cast* Gi Ju-bong * Koh In-bae * Kwon Nam-hee * Park Ji-il * Choi Hak-rak * Myeong Ji-yeon Reception'Another Mag' praised the camera work and use of color in a mostly black-and-white film, noting how it foreshadows the stylistic hallmarks Park developed in later projects. The blog 'Film School Rejects' described it as "a miniature triumph of genre blending," comparing it to both film noir and Korean soap opera. References | |
