Freak the Fxxk Out

Synopsis

A Total of five stories will be in just about 4 minutes. Very short breathing episodes, which consist of bizarre imagination, move on to the next scene without giving them time to grasp the meaning. It's just like rinsing stimuli with stimuli.

Program Note

The director is kind and caring enough to note the audience that there is a cruel scene, so the audience will be very concerned. The audience sometimes accepts this kindness as a challenge. ‘How cruel can it be...?’ We stare at the screen with our arms crossed and eyes open. The music is deliberate, the scream is sharp, and the settings and situations are clear. One might think he was on the hook but when a series of works is attractive, the audience constantly asks for the next episode and tries to come up with a new episode in their heads. Before we even know it, we are colluding with our next ‘Bizarreness’. (NAH Ho-won)
