Program Note

The casino, Kangwon Land is where greed for money is openly displayed. Sure enough, brothers Taegyun and Taemin are out of pocket and suffering. Taegyun has to make up for the money he lost in a hurry, and Taemin’s life is at stake if he doesn’t pay back the money right away, all because they left their Thunderbird car at a pawnshop, and forgot to take out 50 million won that was in the car. To retrieve the money, the brothers break into the pawnshop and with some violence, but the debt continues to grow. The outcome is obvious. The fate of the people around Kangwon Land to make a fortune is like a tiger moth; blinded by greed, they make things worse without realizing the flames of greed will burn them to death! Although they’re hit by ‘Thunder’ to come to their senses, the blue ‘Bird,’ which seemed so close, has disappeared like a mirage. There is no future for Taekyun and Taemin, who might lose their lives, let alone the money. (HUH Namwoong)
