['Yangji of a young man' / Korean society looking back on the death of a field trainee]
Jun-i, a high school student, enters a call center of a large credit card company as a field trainee.
A task that requires constant phone calls and repeats of intimidation and blackmail.
Eventually, Jun made an extreme choice, and Jun's message arrives to Se-yeon, the call center manager.
This is the new work of director Shin Suwon, who has been illuminating the terrible reality of our society through independent films such as Pluto and Madonna.
[Shin Suwon/Director: (Protagonist)) There is a scene where I watch the lights leaking out while working at night in the office.
Is there a sunny place for the current youth generation?
